Nobody can navigate healthcare alone — not even the experts. Anne Llewellyn spent four decades inside the system as a nurse, risk manager, case manager, and editor. Then in November 2014, a doctor said “you have a brain tumor” — and she couldn’t speak for herself.

In the season opener, Anne shares what being a patient taught her that 40 years in healthcare couldn't, what a great advocate actually does (and what any spouse, daughter, or friend can copy tomorrow), and how to find, vet, and afford professional help. You have more power than you think. This episode is where you learn to use it.
