    Women's homelessness: a chat with our newest partner Catherine House w/ Eloise

    CONTENT WARNING: This episode of The Flow by TABOO Period Products includes conversations mentioning domestic violence. If this is a topic that makes you uncomfortable, please flick over to another episode of The Flow. This episode we interview the wonderful Jaylee Cooper from Catherine House. Catherine House is a South Australian Charity, offering crisis and longer term accommodation and support services for women experiencing homelessness. All programs and services are recovery-orientated and provide trauma informed care. Catherine house is an extremely respected Charity and is also TABOOS newest Pad It Forward (PIF) partner! If you need a recap on what PIF is, it’s where you can subscribe to TABOO's products on behalf of someone else, and we re-distribute that donated product to people at risk of period poverty through partnerships with organisations such as Catherine house. You can subscribe for as little as $7 per month right now at tabooau.co.

    Embarrassing period stories w/ Ophelia, Isobel and Eloise

    We thought we would kick off this season with some laughs. Today we are chatting about embarrassing period stories. I don’t think I’ve come across anyone who hasn’t had an embarrassing moment at some point since having their period. We asked you guys to send in your embarrassing period stories on instagram and are also going to react to some stories we recorded at our podcast launch last year. When people hear about TABOO’s mission to eradicate period poverty, they are often surprised when we tell them that doesn’t just mean period poverty occurring overseas - that we have a whole program which donates period products to people right here in Australia who can’t afford it. Period poverty is a reality for many in our country, and it’s happening right on our doorstep.
