About this episode

Dr. Siobhan Dunnavant discusses the importance of parental intuition in child health and navigating medical decisions.

There is no expertise that supersedes a parent who knows their child. That idea sits at the heart of this conversation with Dr. Siobhan Dunnavant, an OB-GYN with more than 25 years of experience who believes the best doctors don't silence questions. They invite them. We talk about finding the confidence to trust your instincts, navigating medical decisions without fear, raising kids in a world of screens, and why connection, movement, and time outside still shape healthier families. If you've ever walked away from an appointment feeling unheard or wondered whether you're allowed to question the experts, this conversation is for you.
