On this episode, we’re diving into the profound topic of empowerment and choice, especially when it comes to parenthood decisions.
Joining us is our special guest, Genna Howard. Genna is an incredibly talented tattoo artist, painter, ceramics teacher, and strongman athlete. We’ve been friends for nearly 20 years, ever since our younger years from attending the same shows in NYC.

In this episode, we discuss Genna and I both getting bilateral salpingectomy surgery, a permanent form of birth control. Genna's openness on social media about their experience with this surgery was a revelation for me and inspired me to consider this option for myself. Without Genna's vocal advocacy, I wouldn't have known this was even an option. Together, we share our stories to empower others, normalizing the idea that it’s okay to know that having children isn’t for you.
WHAT WE'RE TALKING ABOUT:
We hope this episode provides insight and inspiration for those considering their own choices about parenthood. Remember, everyone’s path is different, and it’s all about making the decisions that are right for you. If you have any personal stories or questions, we’d love to hear from you!
