About this listen

Welcome to The Tea Spoonie Podcast, hosted by Dr. Kate Herts, where we'll spill the tea on an array of topics. On this podcast I get personal about my experiences growing up as a lesbian millennial woman with a serious chronic illness; what I have learned from my patients and colleagues as a health psychologist; how I have built a meaningful life through it all; and how you can do it, too. I hope you'll leave the podcast with an additional spoon! (And if you don't know what that means, give it a listen!)
