About this episode
Jorja Lindley is one of the most courageous women I have ever encountered. She has been though a lot in the female anatomy department; she navigated years of severe endometriosis with no diagnosis and no treatment, and then she experienced a non-consented procedure at the hands of her doctor after her son was born that has completely changed her sex-life with her husband.
As she heals, she has made the choice bravely share her story to create a safe space for women who experience painful sex and/or have been victims of obstetric violence. In addition to her openness about her disease and the 'husband stitch', Jorja is also an activist and is constantly sharing education on topics of racism, 2SLGBTQIA+ and many other human rights issues.
