26m · Emerging Topics · 26 Aug 03:10

In this episode of Emerging Topics, Lydia Greene and Heather Simpson, the co-founders of the blog, Back to the Vax: A Guide to Inoculating Yourself Against Anti-Vax Propaganda, tell us about their journey from being former anti-vax mothers to finding their way back to evidence-based medicine and becoming vaccine advocates.

Heather Simpson is a mom, an activist, a podcaster, and a freelance writer. When she’s not chasing her three year old daughter, she frequents coffee shops and loves long walks down the aisles at Target.

Lydia Greene is a married mom of three, living in the Canadian Rockies. When not parenting, writing, or podcasting, she is studying to become a public health nurse to fight hesitancy on the frontlines. In her spare time, she nerds out on PC gaming, D&D, and enjoys walks in the fresh mountain air.
