In this recent Womb Wisdom episode, Kemi is interviewed by Myleik Teele, entrepreneur, coach, mentor, and community builder. Together they discuss the alarming statistics surrounding cervical cancer among Black women and the systemic issues that contribute to delayed diagnoses and inadequate care. 

Moved by the tragic story of beauty influencer Jessica Pettway, who died from misdiagnosed cervical cancer, Kemi points to this loss as a wake-up call to push the conversation beyond pregnancy and call for a radical shift in how gynecologic care is approached for Black women. 

Listen as Kemi gets real about the preventable factors of cervical cancer. With takeaways on HPV, the need for regular screenings, and the importance of advocating for oneself in medical settings, this conversation is both eye-opening and necessary.
