HOST: Daysi Ball, Buffalo Federation Neighborhood Centers Director, BFNC Hope Center

DESCRIPTION: This week’s episode is about the importance of planning for greatness despite

the obstacles. Guest and Author Leah Daniel, an alumna of foster care, shares firsthand

conversations about the good, bad, ugly, missed opportunities, the mistrust, and the distrust of

it is up to us as individuals to turn a negative situation into a positive outcome.”

Audre Lorde said it best…” If not me, then who? If not now, then when?” This is our time to

change the narrative and outcomes for those who are still navigating the foster care system,

unsuccessfully. There are MANY of us who possess the knowledge, power, lived, and shared

experiences to make effective, efficient, and real change obtainable, states Leah Daniel.

Fostering Greatness Inc. was created by foster care alumni for foster care youth, young

adults, and alumni. Let’s make the difference that we wanted others to make for us.

BFNC LIVING Season 2 Episode 9

Topic: Health Care Concerns for Women, Are We Really Heard?

GUEST: Brentnie Adams, BSN, MSN - Registered Nurse & RN Clinical Instructor at

Trocaire College ((Buffalo, NY)

HOST: Chandra Redfern, CEO of BFNC

DESCRIPTION: This week’s episode is about the importance of women becoming an advocate

for their own healthcare. Our guest and host discuss health care stories and frustrations they

have heard from friends about their medical treatments. A Huffington Post article titled Doctors

Can Dismiss Women's Health Concerns. Here's How To Take Back Some Control begins

with the following passage: It’s a well-known fact that men and women tend to express pain,

whether physical or psychological, in different ways. They’re also treated differently because of

it. Evidence shows women are often deemed “overly dramatic” and dismissed by medical

professionals, which may have deadly consequences.

So, is it a communication disconnect? Hear ways you can be an advocate for your health

care outcomes.

Every week,” BFNC LIVING” provides you with ways to overcome some of life’s obstacles. Join

our co-hosts as they lead conversations with guests about subjects that touch lives. In 30

minutes, we seek to inform and provide help and solutions. If our services are needed, please
