EPISODE ONE – Everything you never knew about periods – SHOW NOTES

 

Hello and welcome to the first episode of The Periodical Pod, featuring your hosts Michelle Smith and Alex Whittington. Our mission is to delve into the diverse realm of women’s health, and what better starting point than the menstrual cycle? From ovulation to the luteal phase, your period and everything in between Michelle leaves no stone unturned, and we promise to leave your mind as blown as Alex’s was after this recording. If you’re ready to level up your knowledge of women’s health and to feel equipped to make empowered decisions when it comes to your body, then this episode is the place to start! 

 

Registered acupuncturist, registered Chinese herbal medicine practitioner and women’s health advocate Michelle Smith and producer, writer, and mum of three Alex Whittingtonhave partnered to make a women’s health podcast that’s packed full of the topics we all should have been taught but never were. 

 

We’re your, big sisters, for periods, and we’re diving deep into until-now taboo topics such as periods, hormones, mental health, fertility, sex, menopause, and the entire spectrum of women’s health. 

 

In this podcast there’s no such thing as too much information, we’re not holding anything back and covering the topics you might be too embarrassed to ask about. Expect epic guests including experts in women’s health and people with lived experience. 

 

We want to empower women with education and create an opportunity to share real-life stories that will make you laugh and cry.
