Descripción

In this episode of "Heart, Cat and Soul," we delve into the intricate connections between women, cats, and the realm of science. Inspired by the book Doing Harm, which examines the historical marginalization of women in medical research and treatment, we explore parallels between this bias and the treatment of cats, both in veterinary medicine and cultural narratives. Key Discussion Points: * Gender Bias in Medical Research: We discuss how women have been historically underrepresented in clinical trials, leading to gaps in medical knowledge and treatment efficacy for female patients. * Cultural Perceptions of Cats: We also delve into how cats, much like women in science, have faced marginalization and superstition throughout history. Despite their contributions, they have often been misunderstood or undervalued, reflecting broader societal biases. Resources Mentioned: * Book Doing Harm: This insightful work delves into the biases women face in medical settings. You can purchase it on Amazon [https://www.amazon.com/Doing-Harm-Truth-About-Getting/dp/0062470809]. * My website: www.felvet.co.uk [https://www.felvet.co.uk] Join us in this episode as we uncover the shared narratives of women and cats, shedding light on the importance of recognizing and valuing contributions that have historically been overlooked.

EPISODE 11: Navigating Different Paths as a Vet – with Purple Vet

What does it really mean to be a veterinarian today? In this episode of Heart, Cat and Soul, I sit down with Tina Hansen, also known as Purple Vet—a holistic veterinarian who’s walked a courageous path of transformation. From conventional practice to alternative approaches, from burnout to rebuilding with purpose, Tina shares the highs, the heartbreaks, and the unexpected joys of choosing a different way. We reflect on the challenges vets face, the emotional toll of the profession, and what happens when you choose to listen to your intuition. Tina is one of the Holistic Vet Sisters and offers her own online services, supporting animals and their people with compassion and insight.🌐 More about Tina: https://www.purple.vet/ [https://www.purplevet.com] 🐾 Join my community: https://felvet.co.uk/cat-community-discord/
