Nicole Vick

Season 3 Episode 1

Welcome to Season 3! I'm so excited for the season to come. I've got some brilliant guests coming up this season and to start I've got someone whose work is in public health. We may as well start in the realm of one of the two crises facing the world right now.

In this episode public health professional Nicole Vick and I talk about how our public health system is failing us and what needs to happen to make it work for all Americans. We also discuss Black maternal and infant mortality and the implicit bias that leads to disastrous outcomes. 

I share my own experience of bias by medical professionals and Nicole tells us what she thinks needs to happen.
