Why are STIs so stigmatized despite being so common? Ella Dawson, whose TEDx talk on the subject has been viewed over 800,000 times, is here to talk about about it. We discuss disclosing herpes (or any STI) to your partner, supporting a partner who’s been diagnosed, advocating for yourself at doctor’s appointments, and so much more.

But first, Ali & Erica are together in Greece! Ali works through vacation communication with The Publicist while Erica dips her toe into Greek Bumble.

Where to find Ella: On Instagram @brosandprose, on Patreon at broseandprose, and at elladawson.com.

Timestamps: Ella joins us at around minute 32.
