In This Episode

Black women continue to be disproportionately impacted by HIV, yet they're too often left out of the conversation. It's time to change that.

In this powerful episode, Dr. Marissa Robinson sits down with Dr. Brit Williams to unpack the realities of Black women's health, HIV prevention, PrEP awareness, and the barriers that continue to affect Black communities. Together, they explore why community matters, how workplace experiences shape our advocacy, and why self-care isn't a luxury; it's necessary for sustainable impact.

Whether you're a public health professional, MPH student, health educator, HIV prevention advocate, or simply passionate about health equity and social justice, this conversation offers practical insights and an honest look at the work still ahead.
