The Educate & Empower Podcast
The Educate & Empower Podcast is on a mission to break barriers in women’s health.
We dive deep into women's health across the lifespan, from puberty to post-menopause, focusing on holistic well-being and informed choices.
We shed light on chronic conditions impacting women, including autoimmune diseases, reproductive issues, the mental load so many carry daily, and more.
We challenge the gaps in the medical system, advocating for better care, stronger support, and real change.
And we have candid, no-filter conversations on the topics too often ignored—because every woman deserves to be heard, understood, and empowered.
Your health. Your voice. Your power.
This podcast is hosted by Rebecca East.
