Bold Enough to Ask

Bold Enough to Ask

A BreatheStrong CF podcast featuring tough conversations on sexual & reproductive health for people with cystic fibrosis Relationships are hard. Intimacy is complicated. Throw in cystic fibrosis, and things get real. BreatheStrong CF brings you a rare and honest podcast that dives into the awkward-but-real questions many are afraid to ask – the intimate, often unspoken realities of navigating sexual health, relationships, and reproductive health with a chronic illness. We aim to create a safe space for people with CF to ask the uncomfortable questions, hear the lived experiences, and get the answers they’re looking for. Season 1: Men Have Questions Season 1 of Bold Enough to Ask focuses on the nuances of reproductive health for men with cystic fibrosis. For many men with CF, this topic is left off the table among each other and even in clinic. This leaves men with a lot of questions as they navigate relationships, thoughts about fatherhood, and their general sexual health as they age.

    Saskia Inwood woke up one morning, knowing her life would never be the same. The night before, she learned the unimaginable – that the husband she knew in the light of day was a different person after dark. This season unpacks Saskia’s discovery of her husband’s secret life and her fight to bring him to justice. Along the way, we expose a crime that is just coming to light. This is also a story about the myth of the “perfect victim:” who gets believed, who gets doubted, and why. We follow Saskia as she works to reclaim her body, her voice, and her life.
