Hi everyone! In today's episode, we sat down with a good friend of the show, and women's health ICON, Katie Norbury! She is the creator and mastermind behind the @GetPapped Instagram page tackling the stigma that prevents people from going for life-saving procedures like cervical cancer screenings (previously known as pap smears), mammograms and openly talking about women's health. Katie's project is proof that having these open conversations and encouraging each other and ourselves will reduce the shame and embarrassment that is usually entailed in such procedures and from there, create beautiful human connections.
