194 How women’s heart attacks differ from men’s with Caron Grossman
Caron Grossman is a registered nurse, breathwork facilitator, author and heart attack survivor. Her memoir, Listen to Your Heart Song: Navigating the Unexpected, weaves together her experiences of adolescent grief, addiction, recovery and a near-fatal heart attack, offering hope, honesty and practical insight for anyone navigating their own unexpected life events. We talk about: -How Caron’s heart attack actually began  -Why the classic male symptoms of heart attack still dominate emergency call scripts and training -How many women are told they’re having an anxiety attack or indigestion when they’re actually having a cardiac event -The legacy of her mother’s early death from a misdiagnosed heart attack, and how that shaped Caron’s life and choices -The emotional impact of “doing everything right” and still having a heart attack  -Practical tools for women worried about heart disease risk -The importance of tuning into unusual symptoms in women  -How grief in adolescence led Caron into addiction, binge eating and numbing -The role of 12-step recovery, spiritual connection and community in her healing  -Conscious connected breathwork as a powerful modality for regulating the nervous system -How writing – including daily journaling and “two-way prayer” – helped Caron process grief, shame and fear -Why women need to advocate for themselves in medical settings And more!
