Hi hi hi! I am so glad to see you here!! I'm excited to bring you this new series based on my dissertation and what I studied for it! I hope you enjoy the journey and hopefully learn something too! Just a short episode this week to ease you into the subject and a quick tw, I do talk about infertility briefly at the very end. I won't be hurt if you skip the end or this whole episode. You have to protect yourself and your energy first.
