Candace first appeared on the podcast back in 2015. You can listen to that interview here.

Much has changed in Candace's life since then. During our conversation we discussed:

• How her life has changed 15 years since her original diagnosis.
• The alarming number of questions she is asked during her advocacy work that reflect many people's lack of knowledge about their own bodies.
• The advocacy work she is doing, along with Dr. Andrew Albert, in the Chicago area.
• The growth of her non-profit, The Blue Hat Foundation.
• The reason why many people of color are distrustful of the medical community.
