Learning a lot!

Love the range of guests, I learn something new each episode.

Also 10/10 on the Boris ep and the mystery of Who Menstrual Blood-ed The Cabinet

Great shame-reducing, candid podcast

I’ve really enjoyed this podcast! It’s so important to have these open, candid discussions about our bodies! I appreciate all of the inclusivity, as well! 😊👏

AMAZING period shame-busting show!

I absolutely love this show. The laid back, down-to-earth conversations about bleeding are just what I need. I love how the host normalizes bleeding, being a cyclical person, and challenges the listener to push past menstrual stigma and period shame. Thank you!
