Getting Back to the Basics w/ FNP Brad Fisher

Wendy Moore, PhD, Executive Director, is a cognitive development researcher who spent years studying how people come to know what they know — and still couldn't see this in herself. She self-diagnosed her lipedema in 2024, later confirmed by multiple leading practitioners, after decades of symptoms that no clinician named correctly. Wendy launched Connective Truth to fight medical bias and misdiagnosis, and help young women understand and advocate for their health.
