The Honest Talk

Dr. Jennifer Gunter is a Canadian obstetrician and gynecologist, a pain-medicine physician, a podcaster, and a best-selling author. Her books The Vagina Bible, The Menopause Manifesto, and her latest, Blood, have brought conversations about women’s health and periods to an absolutely new level. Dr. Gunter has been described as the most important truth teller in women's health. 

She joined us at The Honest Talk to chat about women’s health, the myths and stigma around it, her own life, and the challenges we as a society are facing right now.

Silken Laumann captured the hearts and minds of Canadians by rowing for this country in three separate Olympics — and winning three Olympic medals. She also won a world championship and a gold medal in the Pan American Games. Her athletic career was exceptional. But what's so interesting about Silken is that she's also been a champion on another front — raising awareness about mental health. She's so serious about it that she founded an organization called Unsinkable, which helps people take steps toward mental well-being. She's also been very open about her own mental health journey and struggles.
