Periods are the most natural human process, right up there with breathing and sleeping. So why do we feel so icky and uncomfortable talking about it? Even between us girls?

In this episode, we will be talking about the menstrual period, the stigma and awareness about this. Today’s guest is a young award-winning entrepreneur that is raising awareness about the period power.

Nadya Okamoto is a 22-year old entrepreneur and a Harvard student. Started to do NGO work at an early age, she already founded an organization fighting to end period poverty and stigma, and named it PERIOD at the age of 16. She also published a book last 2018, entitled Period Power: A Manifesto for the Menstrual Movement.
