It’s here! The VERY FIRST episode of The Heavy Flow Podcast and I am so excited to be chatting with Emily Varnam and Kelsey Knight of The Fifth Vital Sign. We talk about the role menstrual cycles play in our overall health and wellness, teaching kids about reproductive health, how to start tuning into your body, informed consent and navigating the medical system, and of course Kelsey and Emily’s 1,500-mile tour through 43 states!
