How Unladylike Podcast

Eisa Lee had been using the hannapad for years when an advertisement came up to become a partner for the company in North America. At the time, Eisa was pregnant with her first child and assumed she would have more time during maternity leave to work on a project such as this (she now realizes this is not the case with a newborn), so jumped on the opportunity. She is now the Director of hannahpad Canada and in this episode, shares the benefits of using cloth pads compared to disposable products as well as why you should use cold water to clean your reusable period products. Listen to the end where she explains how being a woman has impacted her work as an entrepreneur and the importance of supporting more women on their journeys.

When you go out for dinner with your partner, who pays for the bill? It’s easy to see how gender norms affect our daily life and our relationships. Men buy the engagement rings, men are paid better, only women receive maternity leave - these are all defined gender-based roles that have been ingrained in our minds. In this episode, host Ayesha is joined by her long-time friend Kyla Mitchell-Marquis to discuss the importance of questioning these social constructs, diving deep into the benefits of challenging the gender rules that you’re “supposed” to follow.
