Heart disease is often talked about as a men’s health issue, but the truth is heart disease and stroke are leading causes of death for women, especially in Black and Brown communities. In this powerful and necessary episode, we sit down with American Heart Association Executive Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer Katrina McGhee to break down what everyone needs to know about heart health, heart attack prevention, and stroke awareness.

Katrina shares why women are often under-diagnosed and underserved when it comes to cardiovascular care, how symptoms of heart attacks and strokes can look different in women, and the everyday preventative measures families can take to improve heart health. We also dive into the health disparities affecting Black and Brown communities, and why access, education, and early prevention are critical to saving lives.

As a best-selling author, award-winning podcast host, certified health and wellness coach, and longtime nonprofit executive, Katrina brings both professional expertise and lived passion to this conversation. She opens up about her own journey, her mission at the American Heart Association, and the work being done to create equitable health outcomes and longer, healthier lives for all. This episode is a must-listen for women, caregivers, and anyone who wants to better protect their families from heart disease and stroke.
