In the latest episode of the podcast, your host, Laura Nozicka delves into an intimate and touching narrative centered on author Audrey Gale's father's struggle with leukemia and his decision to take control of his medical treatment. Audrey long dreamed of being a writer and after 20 plus years in the banking industry, she grew tired of the corporate gamesmanship and pursued a master's in fiction writing at the University of Southern California. Her now second novel, "The Human Trial" is the first book in a medical thriller trilogy inspired by her own experiences with the gap between traditional medicine and approaches based on the findings of the great physicists of the 20th century.
During our discussion, we dive into alternative, less invasive forms of medical treatments, signaling a departure from traditional methods that include modalities based on concepts in quantum physics/biology and energy/vibration medicine. These less talked about treatments are in part what drove Audrey to write this novel in the medical thriller genre.
Throughout the episode, we explore the broader issue of patient agency in medical decision-making, challenging the longstanding cultural norm of deference to medical authority, encouraging listeners to consider their own beliefs and the importance of staying true to what feels right for their health and well-being.
The discussion also touches upon the evolving landscape of medical education and the increasing recognition of natural and holistic approaches to health, including the pushback against pharmaceutical influence in medical schools as seen with Harvard Medical students.
This episode serves as a reflective piece that not only shares a deeply personal journey but also sparks conversation on the critical role of self-advocacy in healthcare. It aims to empower listeners to take an active role in their health decisions, seek comprehensive information, and find the treatment options that resonate with their individual needs and preferences.
You can find Audrey's book, "The Human Trial" on Amazon or wherever you buy books!
