Today's episode is a little different in the order I talk about things, so lemme know what you think of the different format. I talk with my friend, Nikki Fordey, about her career in social work. We discuss her specific area of social work and talk about what exactly does social work encapsulate. We then pivot the discussion to growing up, being somewhat of a medical mystery, due to issues she was experiencing and her eventual diagnosis of Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome. We talk about a lot of other stuff in between, but this is such a great conversation and I learned a lot. Hope you do too!
