Ep. 11 The Period Project

This episode features Janae, Danielle (my cousin), and Cynthia (my sister) talking about how each of us really can make a difference in the world. We talk all about periods! Oh, Menstrual cycles. This can be an uncomfortable topic, but the work that needs to be done around this issue is important for building more equity in our local communities. 

This is not a sponsored episode. This is an episode that helps to spark conversation and create more solution-based problem-solving dialogue around human rights issues that are happening in our local areas. We are women that care are about compassion and empathy. 

Think Global, Act Local; this has been my mantra through grad school.
