I am pleased as punch to bring you today's special guest, Kirsty Spraggon from KirstyTV.com! Kirsty graciously offered to be interviewed for a podcast, after having recently ‘come out' publicly about living with herpes to her viewers, all of YouTube, and a rapt TEDx audience.
Kirsty is both eloquent and inspirational, and I think you will thoroughly appreciate the fresh perspective she shares with me via our Happy Hump Day Podcast.
What to Expect When You’re Expecting…a Podcast
In an effort to cater to short attention-spans (mainly, my own), we keep these podcasts between 5 and 15 minutes in length. When we have guests on the show, sometimes, they’re a little bit longer, but we know you’re busy. Consequently, we promise to always do our very best to be as concise as possible.

Today’s Podcast
Today’s podcast runs about 20 minutes in length, and we’re talking with Kirsty Spraggon about sharing her story publicly, what it's been like to live with herpes, and how, for many years, it defined her relationships and made her psychologically sick.
She'll be the first to tell you, though, that you are only as sick as your secrets.
