Description

This week, I sit down with my Mum, Pam (she/her) & very dear Aunty, Sue (she/her) to chat about what it was like for them to have a period growing up & also, menopause stigmas!


In this episode, we hear about their (very) different experiences of getting a period in the 70s (before sticky pads were actually a thing?!), how open their Mum and Dad were chatting about menstrual health in the house, & the challenges of menopause (something for us all to look forward to?!).


Definitely bring a sneaky glass of red to this one, we were a couple of wines in & just having a good laugh & chat.


What an honour it was to chat with two very special, incredible women!
