I found Dr. Gibbons right away in NY today! We work together at @HHSGov to promote ❤️health. We’re in the big apple today for the @WomansDay @American_Heart Mind Your Heart panel, which will focus on understanding the 🔗 between mental health & heart disease in women. #HeartMonth

#DYK 2/3 of Americans don’t know that heart disease is the number☝️ killer for women? Anyone can get it! Know the signs and get help.

Stigma is when we separate people into “us” and “them”. We should use supportive and non-stigmatizing language so we do NOT reinforce it. Speak out to correct stereotypes 🗣

2️⃣ great advocates for ❤️ health!

Moms all too often put themselves last. How do we help them take things off their plate so they too are a priority? We must empower the moms in our lives so they can get to their doctor appointments and know the signs and symptoms of ❤️ disease early. #HeartMonth
