The State of Menstrual Health The Lunar Body

We're expected to function like capitalist robots in our culture, but we don't power on and off the same way every single day. Period underwear, tampon taxes, menstrual leave, and more — this episode offers a look at the state of menstrual health in the US, the violent roots of gynecological care, where we've made progress, and where we could definitely see some improvements. '

**Note: In this episode I mention 700K covid deaths — I misspoke! As of this recording, we are closer to 600K deaths in the US.

This episode is supported by my FREE WORKSHOP: The Patriarchy vs. Your Body, happening on May 19th. If you can't make it live, RSVP anyway to get the replay emailed to you.
