Episode 2: My Unusual Body – How do you sit with someone different?
In this episode of Soul Bendigo’s podcast Naked we talk about bodily differences and how we can tackle our response when something makes us feel a little bit uncomfortable.
Please note: small parts of this episode talk about things that might be a little difficult for some people to listen to - including pregnancy, premature labor, premature babies, and amniocentesis and deformities.
In this episode we cover:
