Sarah shares how she transformed shame into empowerment, tackled tough conversations with humor, and ultimately found confidence in owning her story. It’s raw, it’s funny, and it’s a reminder that sometimes the worst moments in life can lead to the most unexpected growth. Tune in for an episode full of laughs, real talk, and maybe even a little STI myth-busting along the way.
