In this deeply personal episode, Ashley shares her experience with an MLD therapist that left her questioning her own discomfort—and why she initially struggled to speak up. Together, Ashley and Shawn unpack the ways women are conditioned to be nice, polite, accommodating, and to ignore the gut feelings that tell us something isn’t right. They explore how this conditioning can make us doubt our own boundaries and intuition. What happens when we finally stop overriding ourselves and start listening to that voice inside that says, “Something isn’t right”? 💖 Special thanks to the sponsors of this podcast: ✨Lipera, a supplement formulated for the lipedema body in mind.

Wendy launched Connective Truth to fight medical bias and misdiagnosis, and help young women understand and advocate for their health.
