Hey #Brilliantly Community! ?? I just came across this fantastic article (linked below) by Mitzi Krockover, MD showcasing the trailblazers in women's health and their continuous efforts to improve healthcare for women. The article dives into the journey of these pioneers and the remarkable progress they've made in areas like maternal health, #reproductiverights, and gender-specific healthcare. It's truly inspiring to see how these #trailblazers are breaking barriers and advocating for better healthcare for women worldwide. Their work highlights the importance of understanding and supporting efforts to enhance women's health on a larger scale.

Hi #Brilliantly Community!?? Have you undergone breast implant surgery? Were you prepared for the emotional effects that followed? As many of you know, Brilliantly was founded after Kristen's preventative mastectomy and her ensuing struggle to find both physical and emotional comfort, for challenges she was unprepared for. This experience sparked her mission to assist women facing similar situations in finding the utmost comfort. ?? Interestingly, we're not the only ones pondering comfort! The Harris Poll and the American Society of Plastic Surgeons recently investigated how many women felt adequately informed about what to expect. The results were quite alarming! It turns out, up to 50% of cancer patients who underwent mastectomies did not receive sufficient information about the potential impacts on their daily lives, both physically and emotionally. At Brilliantly, we strongly believe that every woman should be fully informed before making such a life-altering decision! ? What are your thoughts on this issue? How can we work together to improve this situation?

Hey #Brilliantly Community! ?? Happy April 1st! ?? As we step into a new month, let's not forget the importance of self-care and health awareness. ?? April 1st marks the beginning of a movement that can truly make a difference – the Feel it on the First Movement! It's a simple yet impactful initiative that encourages us all to perform monthly at-home breast checks. Yes, this applies to both men and women! While we often associate self-care with relaxation and pampering (which is important too!), taking a few minutes each month to perform this check can truly save lives. Early detection is key in the fight against breast cancer, and by being proactive, we can empower ourselves and our loved ones. So, let's make it a habit to Feel it on the First! ?? It's a small act that can have a big impact on our health and well-being. Share this message with your friends and family to spread awareness and support each other in this important practice. Here's to a healthy and empowered April! ?? #FeelItOnTheFirst #BreastCancerAwareness #SelfCare #HealthAndWellness #BeBrilliantlyBeYou #BreastCheck #SelfCareAtHome #PreventionSaves #EarlyDetectionSavesLives

Hey #Brilliantly Community! ???? Spring is in the air, and you know what that means – it's time for some spring cleaning! ?? But let's not just focus on clearing out our closets and dusting off our shelves. This season, let's also take the time to declutter our minds and hearts. Spring cleaning isn't just about tidying up our physical spaces; it's also about reflecting on what no longer serves us in our lives. Take a moment to look inward and identify any behaviors, habits, or situations that are no longer fulfilling or causing unnecessary stress. Let's also take this opportunity to express gratitude for all the good things in our lives. What are you grateful for? Acknowledge the positive changes you'd like to make, whether it's adopting a healthier lifestyle, prioritizing self-care, or pursuing a new passion. Spring is a time of renewal and growth, so let's embrace it fully! Here's to a season of decluttering, gratitude, and positive changes. ???? #SpringCleaning #MindfulLiving #Gratitude #PositiveChanges #BeBrilliantlyBeYou #HealthyMindset #ClearingOutClutter #Cleaning #Cleansing #Spring

Hey #Brilliantly community, Let's talk about an important topic today—gender inequality in healthcare. Despite progress, disparities persist in both employment and treatment. Women are underrepresented in leadership roles and often face biases in diagnosis and treatment. For example, studies show that women are less likely to be offered leadership positions in healthcare organizations, even when equally qualified. This lack of representation can perpetuate a cycle of inequality and limit opportunities for future generations of women. Additionally, there are well-documented cases where women receive different treatment than men for the same medical conditions. For instance, women experiencing heart attack symptoms are sometimes less likely to be taken seriously or receive appropriate care, leading to potentially life-threatening consequences. But here's the good news: we can be part of the solution! Here are some ways: 1.Advocacy:Support policies promoting gender equality in healthcare. 2.Education:Raise awareness about biases and their impact. 3.Mentorship:Mentor women in healthcare to help them advance. 4.Equal Opportunities:Ensure fair hiring and promotion practices. Let's work together to create a more equitable healthcare system for all. #GenderEquality #HealthcareEquality #WomenInHealthcare #InternationalWomensMonth #BeBrilliantlyBeYou #FemTech #IWM2024 #Healthcare
