Could the fatigue you keep explaining away actually be your body trying to tell you something? In this episode, I sit down with women's health expert and cardiovascular advocate Dr. Jayne Morgan to uncover the critical, often overlooked signs of heart disease in women. We dive deep into why atypical symptoms like constant fatigue and unexplained jaw pain are frequently normalized or misdiagnosed, potentially leaving women vulnerable to silent heart attacks.
