I recently joined your community and I personally would just like to say thank you for using these words here:

Don’t allow your story to be repressed to the point where it  robs you of your inner power, beauty and sexual self expression.

Sex is a form of self-expression and it is different for everybody. I have come across some people who have judged me for being sexually active because I have this STD. I went almost a year and a half completely dormant before I came to the realization that I shouldn’t have to feel that sex is over for me and that I deserve to participate in sex which is a part of life, the way we show love bodily as human beings, and a huge factor that contributes to my self-esteem.

So thank you for these words and making me feel that I deserve to receive the gift of sex and I deserve to give it as well. Lauren G.

Using a holistic approach, she leads you from shame and confusion to love and beyond, with compassion and humor.” Nancy Newby, MA, LMFT, LMHC, herpes hotline counselor

“As a nurse practitioner, I am thrilled that this book is finally available. Up to this point, drugs and scams were the only option available for women, but now women have a choice. They need this information and Dr. Kelly is the only one I know that is providing it. She has developed an outstanding 30 day Self Care Plan that will help millions of women to take their power back and to learn how to live a more vibrant, healthy life, despite their diagnosis. Women need strong role models, so that they don’t feel like lepers when they are diagnosed with this common infection. I work with women everyday and I can now recommend a book that could literally save their lives.” Bonnie Lee, RN, Nurse Practitioner

“Dr. Kelly’s groundbreaking book offers the most up-to-date information on a health topic which is often filled with emotional charge and is very difficult to talk about for many women. She offers a practical well written guide, which supports her vision of mind-body wellness, and the reader almost has a sense of hearing her own voice, her own experience joining in. An essential and hopeful resource which answers all of the questions you were afraid to ask.” Kristen M., Actress
