The Kentucky Momma

This is my personal take, my personal opinion, on Roe v. Wade overturn. My verbiage is strong and blunt and I don't care if it offends you. I'm not trying to change your mind or influence you. I don't want to be right. I wish I didn't even have to have this conversation. But, here we are, living in 1942...

Ugh. This episode is a bittersweet one for me. I am saying goodbye to The Kentucky Momma Podcast for now...I'm not sure what the future holds, but I'm a better person for having this podcast and talking about my struggles. 

This week, I have the pleasure of speaking with Dr. Doug Kaufman. He is the founder and CEO of Vertroos Health. Doug is also an experienced leader, entrepreneur, psychologist, prolific public speaker, angel investor, and most importantly, father to an amazing 15-year old daughter. He created a fantastic product to help parents of teens identify if there are any mental health issues that they are not aware of.  Website - thekentuckymomma.com Email - thekentuckymommapodcast@gmail.com Facebook - The Kentucky Momma Instagram - keishanicolet
