Sickle Cell warriors often times have to choose between staying with a lover, or leaving them for fear of passing on the genetic disease to children, some have felt heartbreak from lovers who did not want to deal with, or could not handle dealing with someone who has the disease, and for some warriors, opening up and letting people in can be a hard and daunting task after learning to rely on themselves and themselves alone their entire life. Paige, X.A.B, and Tolulope touch on all of these topics and more on this first episode, "Relationship Goals".
