School of Embodied Arts Podcast with Jenna Ward
Religion & Spirituality
“That time of the month” - We all know what this is code for right?
We create separation when we speak in ‘code’ about our own body. Part of the shaming, silencing & taboo around periods is our participation in not naming them.
In Claire’s household, she has changed her language (& over several years educated her partner to do the same).
In her household, they name it - “I’m bleeding”
There’s a reason women feel the subtle need to silence their own periods - we’re discussing those reasons with period coach Claire Baker on the podcast. Unpacking these subtle generation - old reasons is useful in understanding how the silence & shaming came to be.
But it’s our bodies that create the future. How you speak about your period determines the future for periods.
In this discussion with Jenna & Claire we explore:
Claire Baker is a sought-after period coach, author and speaker. For nearly a decade Claire has taught thousands of women how to live in harmony with their menstrual cycle, rather than working against it. Claire believes menstrual cycle awareness is the missing key in women’s wellbeing, empowerment and creativity, and her immersive online courses and workshops inspire women to know their flow and become the authority in their own lives. Claire’s online program Adore Your Cycle has students in over 35 countries.
With a background in visual arts and creative business, Claire is a certified health and lifecoach, has studied Menstruality Leadership and is a trained natural fertility teacher. Known for her authentic voice and ability to ‘make periods fun’, Claire is regularly featured in publications such as Red, Glamour, and Women’s Health magazine. Originally from Australia, Claire now lives in sunny East London and spends her days coaching, teaching, writing, dancing and being as close to trees as she possibly can.
