EP 15 - What You Need to Know About Your Period feat. Crystal Kennings - a podcast by Leah Tidey

Today on the show, I answer your questions about sustainable lube products, hormones, managing our mental health leading up to sex and what red flags - and green flags - are in sexual relationships.

I also share part 1 of my interview with my friend and menstrual wellness educator, Crystal Kennings. We talk about cycle awareness and how it includes so much more than just tracking your period!
