I’m excited to have sat down and have a lovely vulva chat with the amazing April Davis. A compelling speaker, creative consultant, visual artist and wordsmith, April Davis has been featured in magazines, on podcasts, and on stage, sharing her wisdom, humor and knowledge as the creator of The Vagina Blog and The Vagina Blog Podcast. Her passion and drive have created an entire community around female body health, as she empowers women and vagina owners to love themselves fully while focusing on bringing light to taboo topics that we just don\’t talk enough about, like sex and periods, along with self-love and positivity. April has a background as a doula, a photographer and a birth assistant to a midwife - so she’s seen a lot of vaginas. She’s hoping to provide entertainment and education around topics we could all use more information about. You can follow her on  Instagram, and listen to her podcast.  https://thevaginablog.com Some resources:   Period Repair Manual: Natural Treatment for Better Hormones and Better Periods  Hormone Repair Manual: Every Woman's Guide to Healthy Hormones After 40 OMGyes.com   Intro ("Fisher's Hornpipe") and outro by Otter Creek Podcast edited by: Ashley Pacini
