S23E10: How I Got HIV: Trauma, Pregnancy, and Healing with Bianca Ordonez

Hey lady! Dr. Dom and Terri welcome Bianca Ordoñez to Cultivating H.E.R. Space to discuss a topic that affects one out of every 54 Black women in their lifetime. Bianca is a HIV awareness advocate and uses her light to discuss how contracting and living with the infection has shaped her life and allowed her to write her own narrative.Bianca’s journey is a harrowing series of events that began with inconceivable family shame that led to her escaping sex trafficking and being diagnosed with HIV at the age of 23. She shares her unique insight on how to build a life one can be proud of despite significant challenges. While today’s topic is serious, Bianca offers both a sobering perspective on finding your worth and hope for those who may feel that their life choices, predicated by events that may have been out of their control, do not have to define their destiny. This is a can’t miss episode and a reminder about the importance of health in every facet of your life. Be sure to take care of yourself through it. We love you, lady! Quote of the Day:"The pain of healing today is worth the peace and freedom you'll feel tomorrow.” – Bianca Ordonez  Wisdom Wednesdays with TerriCultivating H.E.R.
