Midwifery Misconceptions and Roe v. Wade with Henna MSN, CNM May 23, 2022

Show notes

Reporting live from the FIGS annual retreat, D and Jackie chat with Midwife Henna all about midwifery and Roe v. Wade. She shares how she got into midwifery, and the many misconceptions around the practice. She discusses how midwifery is the standard care in other countries until alternate intervention is required, while there is such a stigma surrounding it in America. She explains why she couldn’t see herself working in a birth center, and the high mortality rates in the United States for women giving birth, especially for women of color. Henna highlights the different benefits midwives bring to the birthing community, including shared decision making and autonomy, and the negative repercussions that the overturning of Roe v. Wade would have. Danielle speaks to the lack of education and contraception in this country, and lastly, Henna discusses her platform and offers advice for people considering a career in labor and delivery.

Gender Fluidity (And Our Love for Harry Styles!) with Hamza May 16, 2022

Show notes

This episode is dedicated to Harry Styles. Harry, if you’re listening, we love you. Your hosts are joined this week by their friend Hamza DMD to talk all about toxic masculinity and gender neutralism. They discuss the patriarchy running deep in healthcare, and how inappropriate behaviors are still brushed off as “just how it is.” Hamza opens up about being an immigrant and person of color, which allowed him to empathize more with women who are faced with additional challenges at work and in life. He also opens up about his gender identity, and a bad breakup that forced him to connect with his true self. They talk about how Harry Styles is an inspiration for so many when it comes to gender fluidity, and embracing all that is both masculine and feminine. Hamza also asks D and Jackie how they think they changed the most after significant breakups, and he gives us some behind the scenes details on his incredible friendship, partnership, and recent photoshoot with Lynne and V Coterie.

Narcissists F*cking Suck! With Dr. Z Mar 28, 2022

Show notes

Narcissistic Relationship Coach and Psychologist Dr. Jaime Zuckerman joins your hosts to talk all about navigating and exiting a relationship with a narcissist. Many healthcare workers identify as fixers and people pleasers, which can make them even more likely to fall victim to a narcissist. Dr. Z is here to teach us how to protect ourselves and spot abusive behavior. She talks about whether a narcissist can actually change, and if male and female narcissists present differently. Dr. Z explains what a narcissist is not, and how narcissism functions on a spectrum. She also highlights the need for a full-on exit strategy, and the post-breakup abuse that often occurs when someone leaves a narcissist. We hope that if anything from this conversation resonates with you, or you find yourself in a relationship with a narcissist, this offers that final push you need to ask for help.

To keep up with Dr. Jaime Zuckerman visit her website, drjaimezuckerman.com and follow her on Instagram @dr.z_psychologist. Plus, pre-order her book, Find Your Calm: A Workbook to Manage Anxiety and listen to the “It’s Me, Dr. Z with JB” podcast wherever you listen to us.

Show notes

Our dear sweet new grads, this one’s for you! Disclaimer: this is not an episode on how to pass the NCLEX, it has been far too long and too much has changed.

How do you know what a good paying job even is? D and Jackie cover all of this, as well as resume tips, common misconceptions new grads have, and rapid-fire tips. So hang in there and have faith in yourself y’all; you’ve got this, and we’ve got you!
