The Word Café Podcast with Amax
My unique message to the world is the power behind the words of our mouths. We have made light of it but cannot escape the fruits thereof. For me, words are the unit of creation, the building block on which our existence evolves. This podcast is for everyone who wants to better their living by using words and applying themselves wisely. I will be using the storytelling style fused with imaginative nuances to transport the listener to that place, where possibilities are not luxuries but everyday experiences; movie in voice.
This podcast will emphasize the power of routine, and what you repeatedly do, you most likely build capacity and expertise for what you repeatedly do. My podcast will help the listener learn how to practice success because the same amount of time you use in complaining is the same you can use to plant, build, prune, etc. I intend to draw the listener's attention to the power of their words.

S2 Ep. 125 Social Medicine Hero
Social medicine is a field of medicine that focuses on the social, economic, and cultural factors that influence health and disease. It is also known as public health, community medicine, or preventive medicine.
The primary goal of social medicine is to improve the health and well-being of individuals and communities by addressing the underlying social determinants of health. These determinants include factors such as poverty, unemployment, discrimination, education, housing, and access to healthcare.
Social medicine recognizes that biological factors do not solely determine health but is also shaped by social and environmental factors. Therefore, it seeks to promote health equity by addressing the social and economic inequalities contributing to health disparities.
Social medicine also emphasizes the importance of community participation and empowerment in healthcare decision-making. This means involving the community in the planning, implementing, and evaluating of healthcare programs and policies.
Overall, social medicine is a multidisciplinary approach that recognizes the complex interplay between social, economic, cultural, and biological factors in shaping health outcomes.
On this episode of the Word Café Podcast, I am so honored to have Dr. Fejiro Nwoko and General Manager at Nigeria Solidarity Support Fund discuss this topic.
