“I’m fine.” For many men, those two words are the biggest barrier to a long, healthy life.
Welcome back to Health Facts. In Part 2 of our Men’s Health & Wellness series, Dr. Christopher Brown dives deep into the psychology behind healthcare avoidance. We’re moving past the "silence" and talking about how self-esteem, historical mistrust, and cultural memory impact the way men show up (or don’t show up) for their health.
In this episode, we cover:
The link between low self-worth and delayed medical care.
Navigating the historical context of medical mistrust in the Black community.
How to advocate for yourself: Asking questions, saying no, and choosing the right doctor.
Integrating cultural wellness and herbal care with modern medicine.
STOP NORMALIZING SUFFERING. Being a leader, a provider, and a protector starts with protecting your own health. You deserve to have a professional in your corner.
