It's International Women's Day and as always on this podcast we celebrate women who are game changers and are doing fabulous things to uplift other women.
My guests this episode are GP, Dance Teacher and Body Positive Influencer Doctor Nirja Joshi, Author and mum of two daughters Amy Beeson, and student and campaigner, 11 year old Ava Beeson Uddin.
Nirja talks about how important it is that every girl gets a period positive education and what can be done to ensure they get the support they need in schools. Ava explains how she started a campaign at her school after being inspired by Period Positive founder, teacher and author Chella Quint. And Amy shares the approach she takes when it comes to discussing periods with her daughters.
Plus we talk about the effectiveness of period pants (did you know there are also period swimming costumes?), we hear from other school girls about their experiences of getting their period in school, and we shares our favourite things about being women.
Wishing you a happy International Women's Day. Please share this podcast as it's time girls stopped living in shame about periods. #periodpositive

The Brothers Ortiz is the story of two brothers–both successful, but in very different ways. Gabe Ortiz becomes a third-highest ranking officer in all of Texas while his younger brother Larry climbs the ranks in Puro Tango Blast, a notorious Texas Prison gang. Gabe doesn’t know all the details of his brother’s nefarious dealings, and he’s made a point not to ask, to protect their relationship. But when Larry is murdered during a home invasion in a rented beach house, Gabe has no choice but to look into what happened that night. To solve Larry’s murder, Gabe, and the whole Ortiz family, must ask each other tough questions.
