Description

OOH Am I excited for this one! 
This week we welcome Suzanna Elżbieta, Sensual Guide + Herpes Advocate. And might I add... a total babe and a bad b*tch. It's an epic conversation about stigma, life, acceptance, grace, and yes, herpes. If you think you aren't affected by herpes, you might listen to this and be surprised, as most people (estimates stand around 90%) have it in some capacity. I do, and I have for 30 years now, and I align with Suzanna in my view that we can break stigmas when we talk about it. It was so interesting to have this discussion from our different but similar perspectives.  
I found her on her very popular TikTok (@suzbub) and I am so thrilled to share this conversation with you. She is a guide not only for sensuality, but for helping people who struggle with herpes. We cover: 

 How she opened up about her HSV2 diagnosis in her 30s
How many people estimated actually have HSV1 and/or HSV2 
"Should" you tell people when you have it, or expect someone to?
How we can discuss and break stigmas
What opening up to truth has brought to her life
What the backlash online is like and how she deals with it
Her practices for sensuality
What paying more attention to dress and fashion can bring to our life
Dating with HSV2 and how she handles that (and how I did, too)
Suicide, mental health, and herpes stigma  

And SO MUCH MORE. This woman is putting valuable content out there and truly helping others, and I am beyond excited about this one! THANK YOU for being here!
