Matters of the Heart: Bringing Awareness to Women’s Heart Health

SEP 8, 202625 MIN

Description

Heart disease is a leading cause of death, and heart health disparities disproportionately impact Black and Indigenous women, who often have a practice of pushing through pain without seeking help. This is a dangerous combination, but awareness saves lives. In this episode Makeda Zulu, Angela Conley, and Samantha Lucas-Pipkorn and Abbie Zahler from Hennepin County Public Health discuss awareness, prevention, equity and access for women.
