Description
Welcome to Talk About Your Period: The podcast that normalizes and celebrates all things menstrual. After all, it’s just blood. I'm Karen Klein, and each episode I talk with fellow menstruators about their experience having a period. Periods can be messy, complicated, hilarious, joyful, devastating, and more. Let’s stop shying away from these conversations, and let’s start talking about periods. Because as any menstruator can tell you, periods can make for a pretty damn good story.

What’s the most iconic day for somebody to get their first period? Why, the bloodiest day of the year, of course– Friday the 13th!

Do you remember the first time you used a tampon? I can probably guess it didn’t go quite as planned… In my very first episode, I talk with artist, children’s book author, and one of my dearest friends Vivian Krishnan (she/her) about just that and more.
