Welcome to the Blood Related podcast. We're a mother daughter duo on a mission to bridge the menopause and menstrual wellbeing knowledge gap. For too long, menopause and menstrual wellbeing has been shrouded in shame, with lack of education, understanding and conversation contributing to generations of women and people who menstruate feeling isolated and alone. With one of us approaching 30 and one approaching 60, we decided it's time that changed. Join us as we jump into everything from symptoms to femtech, holistic medicine to pop culture, to try to gain a better understanding of how we got here and how we can change things for the better!

4: Kinesiology
It's 2024! And we're coming at the new year with a brand new schedule. For the first of our monthly interview episodes, we sat down with Kinesiologist Jill Cook to talk about hormone balancing, holistic medicine and loads more. Jill's clients range from endometriosis patients to post-partum new mums, to women struggling with menopause, and she uses a 360 approach to address hormones, movement and emotions in order to heal the body.Excuse the dodgy audio, one of us was recording from the backseat in a Homebase car park.... see if you can guess which one.For more information about Jill's practice, check our her website at https://www.healthharmony.uk/ Hosted on Acast.

3: Shame
Women and people who menstruate have felt shame around periods and menopause for far too long. From hiding period products up our sleeves when going to the loo at school/work, to feeling like we can't discuss symptoms and struggles with men in the room, experiencing shame is a tale as old as time. This week, we tackle patriarchy, first period stories and menopause conversation taboos, all whilst trying to keep our noisy dogs quiet in the background. Come along! Hosted on Acast.
