Vaccines. Abortion. Mental Health. Conversations about health topics like these often stir deep emotions, challenge beliefs, and—most concerning of all—test relationships.
Whether you’re a parent trying to protect your family, a caregiver facing tough decisions, a grieving friend searching for the right words, or a healthcare professional dealing with life-or-death matters, you’ve felt the strain of difficult health conversations.
In Debunk with Empathy, Wan Naszeerah—a Nusantara infodemiologist and public health advocate—offers a fresh approach to these challenges.
Drawing from her lived experiences as a stateless-born Malay woman raised amidst the Nusantara’s plurality of traditional and modern healing practices, and her education at Yale and UC Berkeley, Naszeerah invites readers to embrace empathy—not as a buzzword, but as a skill rooted in the hati, the heart-mind connection central to Nusantara wisdom.
