We dig into the physical changes, the unspoken questions, and the things that were forgotten to be mentioned.Here’s what we explore:Our first memories of starting our periodsWhat we were (and weren’t) told about our changing bodiesHow shame, silence, or support shaped those experiencesBras, pads, and navigating early body imageWhy creating open, shame-free conversations matters nowHow to show up for young people going through these transitions todayThis conversation is about more than just puberty. It’s about how we understand and relate to our bodies, how that connection forms early on, and how we can make sure the next generation doesn’t feel alone in it.If you’re a parent, a grandparent, an auntie, or someone who simply remembers feeling uncertain during those early changes, this episode is for you.Find resources mentioned in this episode here.Learn more about this podcast here.Submit your 90-second lesson/experience here.Apply to be a guest here.Stay updated on new episodes here.*Information shared on this podcast is not medical advice.
