Welcome back to Six Minute Sex Ed, the podcast that helps people talk about sex, relationships, and growing up. Created and hosted by Sex Education Teacher Kim Cavill. Find her at www.teaandintimacy.com - https://twitter.com/sexposparenting - https://www.instagram.com/sixminutesexed/

This week’s episode is level two, making it perfect for tweens, teens, and adults. This is a special episode where I interview Courtney Brame, Founder of Something Positive for Positive People, a podcast and nonprofit organization fighting STI stigma.

Courtney and I talk about living with Herpes Type 2, how medical providers can better serve people in their care, how parents and caring adults can talk to young people about STIs, and the fact that STIs are common, manageable conditions…but the stigma associated with them is life-threatening.
