029 This Is Your Brain on Birth Control by Sarah E. Hill PhD

This episode has been archived. But never fear! You can still access all of our original episodes from our baby podcaster days on our Buy Me a Coffee Page. Just push the big gray button!

This week we’re reading This Is Your Brain on Birth Control by Sarah E. Hill PhD. We are joined by the only person legally allowed to be in our home during this time of shelter in place: our dear roommate Natasha. We are so excited to discuss this book together and share our stories of self-discovery as we learn how to trust our experiences and make informed decisions about our own bodies. Highly recommend this book to anyone who knows anyone who takes birth control… so, everyone!
