In this Womb Wisdom episode, Kemi names the no-win tension Black board certified gynecologists and gynecologic oncologists walk into the moment they decide to educate publicly.

If a Black physician doesn’t show up online, folks may ask, “Where are the trusted black doctors?” When they do show up, the critique becomes, “Ugh, they’re just building a brand.” But the reality is: if you don’t build visibility (aka branding), people who need accurate info won’t find you, and misinformation wins.

Tune in as Kemi unpacks why that framing is both understandable and dangerously oversimplified. Yes, there are people using womb health as a marketing lane, pushing fear-based content, rigid narratives, and misinformation that spreads faster than nuance ever will. But the answer isn’t blanket distrust. The answer is discernment.

Listen in to learn how to vet what you’re hearing, who you’re hearing it from, and what actually turns womb suffering into healing.
