When friendship meets ambition, the conversation hits different.

Mandi and Maureen pull up with honesty, humour and the kind of gems you only share with people who know your whole story.

We unpack business wins, the Ls that taught them everything, choosing yourself in your 30s, and the magic of having a friend who claps for you even when you don’t feel like clapping for yourself.

This is equal parts boardroom, brunch table and therapy session Mantalk.ke style. 😂💙

Raw, vulnerable, and real.

This is the future of manhood.

What happens when men talk about periods?

In this powerful new episode of Mantalk Kenya, hosts Eli Mwenda and Oscar Koome sit down with Angela Waweru, co-founder of Heels4Pads for an open conversation on period poverty in Kenya, menstrual health education and the stigma that still surrounds menstruation.

They unpack what period poverty really means, how it impacts girls and women and why men need to be part of the conversation. Honest, real and necessary, this is one you don’t want to miss.

This episode is part of the #FlowWithPride campaign, a joint initiative by @UNFPAKenya and the Embassy of Denmark in Kenya, with communication support from @FilmAidKenya, all working together to end period stigma and period poverty across Kenya.
