  • Brave and beautiful

    So brave so beautiful. This show actually doesn’t normalize mental illness. This show also doesn’t unnecessarily bring race into every topic to make it seem like we need more equality. There is no equality past equality. Stop. Yuck. Trash.

  • Deeply moving true stories

    I think this is a situation where the low rating is an indication that this podcast is doing something right. The one-star reviews left by triggered and misguided bigots is a testament to the powerful nature and truth of the stories being told here.

    We’re here because Black lives DO matter, and we’re not afraid to say and hear on repea... more

  • This is important

    This podcast is so important! Telling stories reminds people that we’re all human. We may not have the same experiences, but we definitely share the same emotions. And maybe we can eliminate the trauma that people go through for being transgender.

There are various options and resources available for menstrual pain and health that were not previously discussed or taught.
Period Power Stories: The Birds and the Bees
Q: In your experience, have you noticed any differences in how menstruation is discussed among groups of people, like your family and school, and then, like, general society with that?
My family was more open about periods while school discussions were much more silent and considered 'gross'.
Period Power Stories: The Birds and the Bees
Q: So you mentioned feeling unprepared, even though you had all of this great knowledge from your family. Can you talk more about the moment that you got your period and how society's lack of open conversations affected that experience?
The moment I got my period was scary, I knew what was happening but didn't want to accept it due to societal pressures that taught us to keep quiet about our periods.
Period Power Stories: The Birds and the Bees
Q: Can you tell us more about what inspired you to join the club?
One reason I joined the club was my connection with my stepmom, Tina, who motivated me by being active in the cause and I loved what the club was doing.
