Welcome to today's episode of What We Tell Our Daughters. Today's topic can be both eye-opening and triggering depending on your relationship with it.

We're discussing alcohol and it's effect on both your physical health (including menstrual cycle and hormone pathways) and mental/emotional health. Alcohol is rampant in our society, it's cultural, it's social, it's fun and it's detrimental to our health. However, there's always 2 sides to the coin so that's what we're going to discuss today!
