Welcome back!
In the sixth episode of my podcast, I talk with period activist Alice Zou (she/her) of PERIOD. The Menstrual Movement Ontario about her up and down relationship with her period, getting her first period while traveling across the world, and her current period activism initiatives. Alice reminds young listeners that there is no shame in having our periods and that they are not gross, but in fact a beautiful part of life.
I appreciate Alice for joining me on my podcast and sharing about the organization she works with, PERIOD. Movement, and their current initiative to improve menstrual educational resources for local schools. Listen all the way to the end of the podcast to learn more about the ways she and her organization are actively giving back and making a difference in their community.
PERIOD. is a global youth-fueled nonprofit that strives to eradicate period poverty and stigma through service, education, and advocacy. Through the distribution of menstrual products, promotion of youth leadership, and championing of menstrual equity in policy, PERIOD. aims to center those disproportionately affected by period poverty and support local efforts for menstrual equity.
