Entrepreneur Lynette Trawick is bringing awareness around women and HIV.
Check out an exclusive sneak preview of this week’s episode of +Talk (+Life Media's chat show hosted by ABC journalist and HIV advocate Karl Schmid) featuring some shared wisdom and inspiration by entrepreneur and mental health advocate Lynette Trawick.
In her conversation with Schmid, Trawick (@lynette.trawick) opens up about her personal journey as a young, cisgender woman living with HIV as well as starting a nonprofit.
“I wanted to specifically help that demographic because that’s who I am,” says Trawick. “I am a cisgender heterosexual woman living with HIV and when I was diagnosed at 26, I did not see anyone else that looked like me who was speaking out.”
Watch the exclusive clip below, and the full episode this Tuesday on the +Life website.
