4 - Nadya Okamoto | Activist, Entrepreneur, Author

Nadya gets bravely vulnerable about her childhood dealing with physical & sexual abuse, what she is doing now to navigate those experiences and her mission with the nonprofit she founded at 16 years old - now, the largest youth-led women's health nonprofit called Period. She shares her passion for period education and acceptance and opens up about the recent controversy with her activism. Avianna connects with Nadya over common ground, the privilege and pressures of elite education and how to begin the process of personal growth. As she finishes her education at Harvard, Nadya is working on her next project that she will announce soon. If you want to purchase her book, "Period Power,” it is available now on Amazon.
