@FLOTUS Thank you so very much for your support of women.

Today, I am excited to share the first major deliverable from our White House Initiative on Women’s Health Research:

$100 million in funding for women's health research and development as part of ARPA-H's first-ever Sprint for Women’s Health.

Together, we will build a new future for women’s health. We will close research gaps, accelerate new ideas, and change women’s lives.

This ruling on frozen embryos in Alabama is not just cruel; it's a devastating blow to IVF patients, adding financial burden and emotional distress with each failed cycle.

Medical decisions on reproductive health should not be left to balded old white conservative men. A panel of doctors should be consulted for such rulings.

Dear @USRepGaryPalmer, please fund global vaccine programs at the highest levels for FY24. #COVID19 has shown us how critical it is to invest in vaccines that protect against diseases and to strengthen global health systems so that children everywhere can get a @ShotAtLife.

THIS IS GOING VIRAL SO I WANTED TO SHARE IT HERE TOO:

A bit from my past:

My first job after getting my PhD was working as a therapist for people from low socioeconomic backgrounds.

Almost all of them were diagnosed with depression, GAD, bipolar, or BPD. Most were highly medicated— some to a point that still sticks with me years later.

As I got to know their background and lives 3 things were very clear:

1. A vast majority had been emotionally neglected, emotionally abused, or physically abused as children.

2. A vast majority had experienced domestic violence or were currently living in it.

3. Basic needs were never met. Life was an hour by hour struggle. Treatment was an attempt to allow them to get to work in most cases. To just continue to surviving.

It was the start of me questioning the field I had been trained in. One that diagnoses people with disorders without taking a look at the whole picture. It began my path of holistic understanding.

A person cannot be well when one unexpected bill will have them fall behind on rent. When they lay their head on a pillow and all they can think about is expenses piling up. When a bill at the grocery store is almost double what they paid last year when their income has stayed the same.

An entire family unit deeply struggles within survival mode. When a job is lost. When daycare needs to be paid, but so does the light bill— what do you choose? When parents can’t even think about the emotional needs of their children because they have to figure out where their next meal is going to come from.

In 1942, 10 years before the diagnostic manual of mental illness was released Maslow knew what was once just common sense: we have a hierarchy of needs.

At the bottom are basic needs food and shelter. Then safety (resources, security). Then belonging (connection, friendship, intimacy.) Without three things we *will* be sick, period.

I get pushback for questioning the status quo. And I’ll continue to do it. The status quo is keeping people sick. It denies their experience. And it says we should bandage people’s symptoms so they can return to the environment that made them sick.

May we wake up, heal ourselves, and build conscious communities to help each other.

Retweet if you feel this is true in your body 🙏
