Journalist and Blogger Esta Suma from Leeds talks about her experience of trying to shake the stigma of being a "teen mum". Esta opens up for the very first time publicly about suffering from depression and PTSD after a secret abortion at the age of 16. *This podcast contains explicit conversation about abortion.* The 23-year-old talks to the pair about the impact of her father's death, her rocky relationship with religion and how she came face to face with Nelson Mandela. She also gives the lowdown on wicked wigs and weaves and how she's no stranger to nudity after disrobing at the 'Tribe of Doris Festival'. This week's Nude news it's all about pains, drains and pregnancy feels.
