Are We Talking About Periods Too Much?

from The Period Press · host Samantha Garstin

Are We Talking About Periods Too Much?This week’s episode was sparked by that viral Wimbledon clip of model Brooks Nader bleeding through her skirt — and an opinion piece in The Spectator by Katie Glass, titled "Period talk needs to stop. Period."I dig into why that article gave me pause (and not in the way the author intended), and why I think silencing these conversations now would be a huge step backwards.We talk about:Why visibility and choice still matter in 2025How menstrual health is about more than just bleedingThe power of energy mapping and working with your cycleWhy the rest of the month matters just as much as your period weekHow “professional” shouldn’t mean overriding your needsIf you want to see the original posts and clips we discussed:The TikTok clip of Brooks NaderMy Hotel Mishap post on LinkedIn📅 Written editions drop every Sunday at 5 am — ready for coffee in bed at 10.📧 Subscribe here → The Period Press Newsletter
