Hello and welcome to Let's Talk About It.

This is your host Taylor and today we're going to dive into a topic we've never talked

about on the podcast before so I'm excited to open up a new conversation and I'm also

very very excited to share the guest for today, Farzana Doctor.

And I actually was introduced to her through my PhD program at Modern Sex Therapy Institutes

and she came as she taught over the weekend and it was so fantastic and you know, again

always going into like education with an open mind, open heart, open ears and I thought

wow okay this is definitely someone I need to get on the podcast to continue this conversation

and to share some of the things that I've learned and share the stories as well.

So before I share the interview I want to tell you a little bit of how to our guest.

She is a writer and activist and a psychotherapist.

She has written several books that I highly recommend you check out.

Her most recent one is called Seven.

All of the resources that are mentioned in today's episode will be listed in our episode

notes so be sure to check that out.

She creates poetry since she has a poetry collection, she has a ton of activism within

this space and you know want to encourage everyone listening as always open, you know

as always listen with an open heart, open ears, open mind and also make sure to take care

of yourself.

Today's episode is going to be focused on female genital mutilation which is a very unspoken

about topic.

It's topic I don't think we hear a lot about.
