Women’s Health Part I: Awareness and Advocacy

From toxins in tampons, to the constant battles that those with endometriosis fight, it can be challenging to advocate for ourselves within systems and within a society that has not and does not prioritize women’s health. Yet, in spite of this, we always know that we can count on other women. The Women’s Health Coalition [https://thewhc.ca] is an organization that is “advancing a movement to speak openly, learn, and engage, to address barriers, gaps, and biases in menstrual, reproductive, and sexual health.” We are lucky to have Carmen Wyton, chair and founder of the Women's Health Coalition to share why women’s stories are so integral to its advocacy work.

Wellness in Spite of...

Looking after ourselves is often viewed as an add-on, a reward, or hope for the future. It’s rare that we tune into the information our bodies are giving us until we’re starving, exhausted, or sick. And simply forget about honouring your spirit or tuning into what your souls need until vacation! Nora Weston-Stuart has created an online space that focuses on holistic wellness for teachers, but much of what she explores is relevant to every person moving through the world.  Follow us on Insta! @mlnl911pod

Solo Fertility Journey

More and more women are finding themselves in doctor’s offices and fertility clinics trying to do the one thing they did everything to avoid in their teens and 20s: getting pregnant. Thankfully, many are sharing their stories of the wait times, the frustration, but also of the immense joy. And we’re so grateful to hear a story of one woman taking the fertility path on her own.  Find Nora on Instagram  @loveyourlearninglife. Follow us on Insta! @mlnl911pod
