Period Talk, Let's Talk About the P-word


Listen Later

Aunty flow, 'that time of the month', the P-word….it's called your PERIOD and today I want you to say it loud and proud. Your cycle is the foundation of your health, helping you through every stage of your life. It's a natural and beautiful part of being a woman but it's somehow become a taboo and often shameful topic to talk about. So much so that we can barely say the word 'period' or discreetly slip sanitary products to each other like we're doing some shady, back-alley deal.

With literally half the world's population experiencing this, why the hell aren't we talking about this everyday? Our reproductive cycle isn't just for having children, it's the underlying factor and foundation of women's health and with so much misinformation, stigma and shame surrounding menstruation it's time we talk about it! In this episode, I discuss our cycle, why it exists, how it helps us function and how to live and thrive with a healthy cycle whilst debunking the myths and misconceptions around your period.

This isn't just for women, so please share with your partners, friends, brothers, fathers etc. A woman's cycle impacts every aspect of life, from hormone health to intimacy and birth; no more “is it that time of the month” jokes - it's time to embrace your period and prioritise its vital role in life.
