Taking Back Your Health: Patient Advocacy in a Corporate Healthcare World

Today, I have another truly impactful guest joining me. Dr. Nikki Johnson is not only a physician with years of experience in pediatric critical care, but she’s also become a fierce advocate for patients navigating the modern healthcare system.

Dr. Nikki has seen firsthand how the doctor-patient relationship is often overshadowed by corporate healthcare interests and insurance demands. We’re diving deep today into some of the major challenges she’s witnessed – like how insurance companies and government policies are increasingly influencing which treatments patients receive. Dr. Nikki argues that these outside forces are eroding the core of patient care, where the focus should be on that personal bond between doctor and patient.

As the Interim Director of FAIR In Medicine, she’s leading efforts to educate and empower patients so they can take back control of their healthcare choices. We’ll be talking about her involvement with grassroots organizations like Free2Care and what it means for physicians and patients to unite against a system that can feel impersonal and, at times, restrictive. Through her work, Dr. Nikki is helping more people understand their rights and advocate for the quality, transparency, and choice that everyone deserves in their healthcare.

So, whether you've felt frustrated by healthcare decisions being made without you or just want to know more about reclaiming your power in medical care, stick around. This conversation with Dr. Nikki Johnson will leave you inspired and informed on what’s possible when we demand better from the system!

It hurts to be so angry about politics. Yet many, given the opportunity to step away and feel something better, choose not to.

Today I’m honored to sit down with a fellow member of the ProHuman Foundation’s board of advisors, Dr. Fred Luskin. It’s a privilege to be in conversation with someone whose work in the field of forgiveness and emotional well-being has touched so many lives, and whose insights are invaluable for anyone looking to cultivate deeper happiness and emotional resilience.

Dr. Luskin has dedicated his career to the science of forgiveness, serving as the director of the Stanford University Forgiveness Projects and authoring bestsellers like *Forgive for Good* and *Forgive for Love.* In our conversation, we’ll explore how forgiveness and gratitude—cornerstones of Dr. Luskin’s research—are not just abstract ideals but teachable, actionable skills that can transform your life. From breaking free of the victim mentality to fostering personal responsibility and emotional health, Dr. Luskin’s work shows us that we have the power to reshape our emotional reality.

In this episode, we’ll dig into the science behind forgiveness, the dangers of labeling others, and why humility and vulnerability are essential for genuine healing. Whether you’re dealing with personal struggles or just striving for a greater sense of well-being, Dr. Luskin’s approach offers practical steps to move forward.

So, join me as we dive into this transformative conversation with Dr. Fred Luskin, and discover how you can take control of your emotional well-being through the power of forgiveness and gratitude.

As I watch this debate, which is much better than that debacle a few weeks ago with the primary candidates, my mind goes to the idea that we need more that are working towards a better way to engage with those of opposing mindsets.

You may have heard of my work with both 𝐃𝐫. 𝐅𝐫𝐚𝐧𝐜𝐢𝐬 𝐂𝐨𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐬 & 𝐃𝐫. 𝐉𝐚𝐲 𝐁𝐡𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐚𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐫𝐲𝐚. Have you heard of the conference at Stanford University this week where I will be joining Dr. Bhattacharya and moderating a conversation with some of the world's most esteemed medical professionals?

Background:
My name is Wilk Wilkinson. I'm a husband and father living in the rural Midwest. I have worked in trucking and transportation for more than two decades -- my entire professional life.
At the start of the pandemic, I began a podcast called "Derate The Hate" because I wanted to better attitudes and help bring our divided country back together.
I didn't know if anyone would listen, but I felt I had something to say.
Since then, "Derate The Hate" has grown beyond my wildest dreams. It has brought me together with many incredible Americans who were concerned about the same things I was, even when we didn’t see things the same way.
From now through Election Day, I plan to publish a series of short clips with a handful of the amazing guests who have joined me on "Derate The Hate". There are ten weeks between now and November 5, so I plan to highlight ten of these guests.
Each week, one new guest.I hope these clips inspire you to reconnect with people in your life who have been ripped away by our toxic politics.
It doesn't need to be this way, even in the middle of a heated national election.Over the next 10 weeks, I invite you to share any of these clips that resonate with members of your network.
Thank you for tuning in.

Friends, today I’m very excited to bring you a conversation that goes way beyond the same old talk about DEI – this isn’t just another conversation about diversity for diversity’s sake. My guest today, Delphia Howze, is someone who brings a fresh, real perspective on what it truly means to create inclusive environments, and as you’re about to hear, much of it starts with personal accountability.

Delphia is the CEO and Founder of D. Howze Solutions and serves as the Chief Inclusion Officer at a national laboratory. She’s been a driving force in the Diversity & Inclusion space for over two decades, with experience across industries – from banking to retail, to energy. Her approach is grounded in real-world results, helping organizations not just tick the diversity box, but truly harnessing the power of human capital to drive meaningful change.

We’re diving into her new book, Including You: Leading Inclusion from Where You Are, where Delphia takes a different route. She challenges each of us to look inward – to reflect on our own biases and understand how they affect the way we interact with others. It’s about more than just policies or training sessions. It’s about stepping up, having the hard conversations, and using something called ‘appreciative inquiry’ to really bridge divides and foster genuine understanding.
