The Papaya Podcast Dear Media

Do I cost too much to love? Am I easy to leave? Why did a friendship end? How do we let them go, and let them go with grace? Today’s episode was born out of a carried conversation from a previous episode on Friend Divorce. The topic is raw, real, taboo and often never really talked about. Devrie Brynn is an online creator, tiktok and reel maker with her little connecting one minute story-telling and now a new book “You’re Gonna Die Alone (and other good news) out this October!

Joining me in Apple Park is Apple’s VP of Health, Dr. Sumbul Desai. We learn how she merged the worlds of health, science and technology into her career from lived experiences and her own mother’s stroke that led her to pursue medicine. Now into an evolving role in changing (and saving) lives with common technology devices, we discuss some of the core ways we can utilize technology to benefit our health, including preventative care, and the importance of taking care of us. Paying attention, taking notes, not letting the little things just slide.

At 16, Katrina found out a shocking discovery - she was under the umbrella of “intersex”. Intersex is a general term used for a variety of conditions in which a person is born with a reproductive or sexual anatomy that doesn’t seem to fit the typical definitions of female or male (via Intersex Society of North America). Katrina’s discovery came with a wave of reality when it came to fertility, and searching for a community that was hard to find. With so much misunderstanding around Intersex, Katrina now shares her story to help others who may have be Intersex as well (around 2% of the population) not feel so alone. 




Katrina is the owner of @eco.refillary.com and @innascents

Dr. Shazma Mithani is an ER doctor from Edmonton, Alberta and she works with both adult and pediatric patients. Her mission is simply to empower each of us to stay healthy, and out of the ER. Dr. Shazma shares the common reasons she sees families in the ER, and what she personally avoids because of it. She posts on social media little bits of medical literacy to help us understand what to expect from an ER visit, how to prevent illness, what you can do from home and when you should see a doctor. This episode is meant to remove shame from the unknowns in parenthood for everything from injury to the constant evolving of rules/advice out there.
