In this episode, Dr. Julie Dean Richards shares her personal experience navigating the mainstream medical system while understanding her legal rights and bodily autonomy. She discusses her son's sudden illness, their hospital stay, and the challenges she faced as a legal professional and researcher. Julie emphasizes the importance of establishing authority, building rapport with healthcare providers, and knowing how to effectively communicate and advocate for oneself. She also highlights the value of seeking support from one's tribe, conducting research, and utilizing resources such as university libraries and legal hotlines. Julie concludes by discussing the significance of informed decision-making and the importance of knowing when to transfer care or seek legal assistance.
