Today on the show Kathleen Shannon, co-founder of Braid Creative and Being Boss Podcast co-host, takes the reigns to interview me about my new book, Heavy Flow: Breaking the Curse of Menstruation. We talk about my early interest in periods, how period shame shows up in our culture, where menstrual equity intersects with other social justice issues, hormonal birth control, body literacy, where period pain comes from and what we can do about it, and so much more.
This episode of Heavy Flow is supported by Kelly Diels’ Feminist Marketing Workshop Annual Pass. Register at kellydiels.com and get access to 12 three-hour workshops that will help you grow your business without compromising your feminist values.
