    Episode 89 - The Chronicles of a Bluky Uterus (My Laproscopic Fibroid Surgery)

    In this episode, I tell the tale of my Fibroid removal surgery (laparoscopic myomectomy). As a black woman, I know how common it is for us to have issues with fibroids. As a woman, I know how frustrating it is for us to deal with doctors that are not helpful. I hope my story inspires women who listen (especially those in Ontario, Canada) to advocate for themselves! Reach out if you have any questions about anything in this episode! Here are the links to all of the stats I referenced to in this episode: https://mcpress.mayoclinic.org/women-health/uterine-fibroids-are-more-common-and-severe-in-black-women-but-there-are-treatment-options/ https://canwach.ca/article/fibroids-and-black-womens-health/ https://www.reddit.com/r/Fibroids/  https://cancer.ca/en/cancer-information/cancer-types/uterine/what-is-uterine-cancer/uterine-fibroids  Follow the Podcast Instagram: @pessimismatitsfinest  https://www.instagram.com/pessimismatitsfinest/  Book Instagram: @romanceatitsfinest  https://www.instagram.com/romanceatitsfinest/ Email: pessimismpodcast@gmail.com   Twitter: @pessimismpod https://twitter.com/PessimismPod   Links: https://msha.ke/pessimismpodcast/ Intro Music by ItsWatR from Pixabay

    Episode 88 - Heated Absenteeism

    I am back ( for a good time not a long time)!  This is my second time recording this episode. The first time, I was just yelling into the mic to the point that I had to make the decision to re-record this episode. I hope that you all enjoy it. In this episode, I talk about where I have been, Washington DC, potentially going to Wrestlemania 42 in Vegas, and what's left to come on the journey to episode 100. I hope that you enjoy this catch up and Happy Easter (if you celebrate)!
