Impactfully No. 4: Advancing women's health
We are back with another newsletter! This week, we are starting a conversation around women’s health.
People tend to be dismissive of women’s health, regarding it as something that only affects one group: women. The reality is that it affects all of us: old, young, men, women, non-binary folks...everyone.
This week’s newsletter dives into all aspects of women’s health, from the female work experience in healthcare settings, to learning how to communicate with those going through both rare and everyday struggles.
