Welcome to Episode 4 of the Confessions Podcast, Season Two, where we delve into the heart and soul of resilience and purpose in the face of adversity. This episode introduces you to Bridgette, a remarkable woman whose life took an unexpected turn at the age of 40. Born and raised in Inglewood, California, Bridgette's story is one of courage, transformation, and the power of finding one's voice amidst life's most challenging moments.

At 51, Bridgette is not only a loving mother but also a dedicated nurse, a profession she embraced later in life, symbolizing her unwavering commitment to caring for others. However, Bridgette's journey took a pivotal turn when she was diagnosed with HIV, a moment that reshaped her existence and set her on a path to advocacy and
empowerment. In this unfiltered conversation, Bridgette shares the raw and honest emotions of the day she received her diagnosis, the complex process of disclosing her status to friends and family, and how she navigated the storm of emotions that followed.
But Bridgette's story doesn't end with her diagnosis. Instead, she turned a moment of despair into a mission of hope, using her experience to make a positive impact. Through her column, 'Being Bridgette,' featured in POSITIVELY AWARE, one of the most trusted sources of HIV treatment and advocacy news, Bridgette offers insights, support, and inspiration to others walking a similar path. Her voice is a beacon of strength, encouraging an open dialogue about living with HIV and challenging the stigma and misconceptions that often surround the virus.
Join us in this powerful episode as Bridgette takes us through her journey of self-discovery, the search for purpose, and her unyielding dedication to making a difference. Her story is a testament to the strength of the human spirit and the profound impact of turning personal trials into a source of empowerment and advocacy. 'Confessions' Season Two is dedicated to amplifying the voices of black women like Bridgette, whose experiences remind us of the importance of compassion, understanding, and collective action in the fight against HIV. Do not miss this inspiring episode of courage, hope, and transformation.
