Join us in this deeply moving episode of OSLP, where we have the honor of featuring the incredible Queen Mae. Her journey with PCOS is not just a story of struggle, but a testament to the strength of the human spirit in the face of adversity. Mae shares the raw and real aspects of living with PCOS, from the initial diagnosis, battling through periods when doctors wouldn’t listen, to the life-changing moment of finding a healthcare professional who treated her with the compassion and understanding she deserved.

This episode takes an intimate look at Mae's bariatric surgery journey and how it significantly alleviated her PCOS symptoms, allowing her to reclaim her health and zest for life. Through her story, Mae is making a difference, turning her pain into a beacon of hope for many facing similar battles.

Mel and Kellie, profoundly touched by Mae's resilience, engage in a heartfelt conversation, expressing their awe and learning immensely from her experience. Their reactions are a mirror to ours—wonder, empathy, and a deep sense of connection. It’s a reminder of the power of shared stories to inspire and heal.

The episode shines not only because of Mae's courage to share her story but also due to the palpable support and admiration from Mel, Kellie, and the entire OSLP community. Together, they celebrate the beauty of making everyday memories, acknowledging the blessings of life post-recovery.
