Ep 28 | When the Experts Disagree: How to Trust Yourself in a Sea of Conflicting Advice


Listen Later

What do you do when two “experts” give completely different answers about your health (or your child’s health)? Do you follow the credential, the confidence, or your own gut?

This episode of Well Considered is Part Four of our 5-part series, The Empowered Mom’s Guide to Medical Advocacy. We tackle one of the hardest parts of medical decision-making: navigating conflicting advice. Because in today’s world, it’s not a matter of if you’ll encounter it, but when.

Inside this episode, you’ll learn:

  • Why even highly trained professionals can disagree on the “right” choice

  • How to recognize when advice is incomplete, biased, or influenced by system pressures

  • A practical framework for slowing down and asking clarifying questions before deciding

  • The role of your own intuition, values, and lived experience in making confident choices

  • Why informed consent means you don’t need to blindly pick a side

    If you’ve ever felt torn between two experts, overwhelmed by a flood of opinions, or afraid of making the “wrong” decision, this episode will help you reclaim your footing. It’s about learning to pause, ask, and discern, so you can move forward with clarity and peace.
