Thoughts associated with beginnings often include excitement, anticipation, and a sense of possibility, alongside potential anxiety, uncertainty, and a hint of the unknown. Beginnings can be viewed as a fresh start, a new chapter, or a chance to rebuild, while also acknowledging the potential messiness and challenges that come with starting something new.

A Field Guide to Lost Modernisms

Healthcare and care provision have long been influenced by gendered dynamics. Whether in access to treatment, diagnosis, or the dominant narratives about body normativity, access to care remains unevenly distributed. The inclusion of women in health trials was not consistently considered until the NHS Revitalization Act of 1993; however, to this day, other structural factors, such as race, ethnicity, or class, remain underrepresented in clinical studies (Kwiatkowski et al., 2013). In patient-centered care, which emphasizes patients’ autonomy and overall well-being (Reynolds 2009), it is essential to consider both structural and individual factors.
