Julie Stiles joins the show to talk about her autoimmune adventures and how her disease has caused her to understand the importance of not giving your power away to healthcare providers.

Pat takes it further and examines how the idea of 'take back your power' plays a role in everyday life. Hear about her adventures at a Walmart speedy checkout, a pizza parlour, ambulances, smart meters and yes - all the way to the new approach of calling our children purple penguins instead of boys and girls. If ever there was a time to take back your power - it's here and now. Listen and see if you agree!
