During this episode we dive into Erin's story of managing and overcoming persistent pelvic pain and how that ultimately led her into specializing in healthcare law. Her honesty and transparency in this talk were incredibly eye opening and we hope that her story helps and inspires others who might be going through a similar situation that Erin faced.
