S2 Ep 27: The Change with Reshonda Robinson

Welcome to P.S. Blossom, powered by Rhia Ventures!

“I wish I had known how to ease into menopause because, growing into womanhood, most women may experience childbirth, and some may or may not. However, I wish I had known more about what my body would go through, and how my hormones would naturally change with my body. I wish someone had actually explained that to me.” — Reshonda Robinson
