What We Do For Our Bodies (with Dr. Kavita Jackson, M.D.)
Manage episode 282065695 series 2842442
Our guest on today’s episode is Dr. Kavita Jackson - breast cancer warrior M.D. We talk about her experience from launching her career as an emergency room physician to facing Stage 2 Invasive Ductal Carcinoma - breast cancer. A mother of two small children, the daughter of immigrants from India. She draws on the strength of those who support her to navigate treatment and her relationship with her body. We work through understanding that our mind and our bodies - they’re fighting the same war. To heal ourselves.
After the credits, stay on for a few more moments to listen to Dr. Jackson and I discuss cancer swag, the concept of corporate pink washing, and negotiating potential silver linings - if we can call them that - to our respective cancer journeys.
Just a heads up. This conversation was recorded before the death of Dr. Susan Moore. The physician who, before she succumbed to COVID-19, posted videos online about the racism she experienced by the hospital team where she was being treated. I say this because we touch on a few topics in this conversation that we would have likely brought that up. We’re not NOT talking about it. When these conversations are recorded and when they’re posted may be achronological with current events.
You can follow Dr. Kavita Jackson on Instagram at @drkavitajackson.
Here’s an overview of our conversation:
- How our immigrant parents raise the bar for our possibilities (11:30)
- Dr. Jackson uncovers her fears about chemotherapy (22:22)
- Learning about what justice and equity look like in our bodies (53:34)
