Episode Synopsis

Today we’re exploring themes that are right at the heart of the emerging menstrality movement; love, belonging and an invitation for each of our experiences to be dignified, and honoured, exactly as we are.  I’m talking with LGBTQ+ inclusion consultant, Adele Bates, whose day job is as an education and behavior specialist - just release her first book “Miss I don’t give a sh*t: engaging with challenging behaviour within schools” - we’re celebrating you Adele! Adele is a graduate of our Menstruality Leadership Programme and has been a profound resource as an LGBTQ+ educator in the Red School community. Today we ask how we can move towards more genuine inclusion in our work as Menstruality pioneers, looking at the questions such as:- How is menstrual cycle awareness different when you’re in a same sex relationship?- How can we ensure that non-binary or gender fluid people and trans men feel safe, honoured and a sense of belonging in menstruality work?- How might a trans woman experience menstruality?
