#96 Gabby Edlin: Dare To Ask


Listen Later

Hello and welcome to Season 3 of the Wanna Be Podcast. The podcast that takes you from where you are now to where you wanna be in 30 minutes or less. I am of course your host, Imriel!
Guys! How good was Natalie Lue’s episode on people pleasing, trying vs efforting and taking a step back last week! HO- My god the messages I got afterwards were a joy! If you missed it go and circle back to it now!
I’m very excited to share this week’s guest’s story. Gabby Edlin is the founder of ‘Bloody Good Period’ a charity that helps collect and distribute sanitary products to asylum seekers. Gabby has been at the helm for 3 and a half years and the movement and support she has garnered just keeps growing.
In today’s episode, Gabby shares her thoughts on what it means to be a professional, feminist, navigating anti-semitism, the pitfalls of a career in the arts, and what it takes to turn a movement into a business. We also explore whether activism pays? Check it out!
Gabby is a phenomenal person with an amazing story. You simply have to follow Bloody Good Period on Instagram @bloodygoodperiod and visit bloodygoodperiod.com to support the cause. If you’re interested in getting paid for speaking consulting or just contributing to discussions check out the F U Pay Me group on Facebook!
Just a reminder that I’ll  be opening a members-only recording studio for podcasters in Peckham! If you’re interested head to contentisqueen.org to join the waiting list.
