SPFPP 407: Presence Over Performance

Hosted by Courtney W. Brame, Something Positive for Positive People is a 501c3 nonprofit organization supporting people navigating herpes stigma. We offer 1-1 support calls for people who need help with sharing their status with potential partners. We offer virtual events, support groups, and advocate in mental health and sexual health spaces for the minimization of stigma through the stories shared. On this podcast, we interview people living with herpes and who work in the field of sexual health, mental health, and public health to neutralize stigma's impacts.
