What started as a personal struggle quickly revealed itself as a common issue faced by many women, inspiring Gail to be part of the solution.

The conversation also delves into the significance of sisterhood and community support, highlighting how Gail’s journey has empowered other women to embrace their own stories.

It’s a must-listen for anyone seeking inspiration and empowerment.
