Alexandra Galaska- Making decisions, Informed consent, trusting your inner knowing.
Today I am bringing to you a very important conversation about making decisions with our health providers, and exercising what is called informed consent. Many of us, when pregnant with our first child, have never even set foot in a hospital or needed to make decisions about tests, procedures, vaccinations and interventions. I believe the biggest mistake people make is handing over their decision making to the health professionals, without considering our own choices and what feels right for us. I loved Alexandra’s message, as it is free from giving opinions and more about collecting vital information from the makers of the products and accessible through our government agencies. Alexandra is the founder of Just the Inserts, a platform dedicated to empowering individuals with accessible, transparent information about medical choices. With a solid research background and a passion for informed consent, she guides people through the complexities of pharmaceutical products and decisions. Her commitment to clear, reliable information has earned her recognition as a trusted voice in the community, helping countless individuals make more informed, confident healthcare decisions. You can find out more about Alexandra and her organisation - ‘Just the Inserts’ in our show notes. Over time, we need to take on a more active role of advocate for our children, so why not start now through your pregnancy and as you prepare for birth.
