Send us Fan Mail [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2503987/fan_mail/new] Period pain shouldn’t be a performance test, and silence shouldn’t be the policy. We sit down with Céline Ventalon, the French founder behind EMER, to unpack how luxury period underwear, honest education, and cultural empathy can turn a private struggle into practical power. From her 17 years in Asia-Pacific marketing to building a women’s health brand rooted in French craftsmanship and Vietnam’s maker spirit, Céline explains why trust—not fabric specs—decides whether people switch, and how small habits can unlock big change. We dig into the underreported risks behind some disposable products and the shocking scale of waste: tens of thousands of items per person over a lifetime, with pads and tampons among top global plastic pollutants. Céline walks us through the real economics of period care, showing how multi-year underwear pays back quickly, reduces trash, and removes the mid-meeting scramble. She shares the most common barriers—washing anxiety, habit inertia, and fear of leaks—and offers practical, step-by-step ways to trial new options without stress. Education threads the whole conversation. We talk about bringing boys and fathers into the room, running pro bono workshops in schools and companies, and using cycle literacy to fuel performance. If elite athletes can tailor training to phases and win championships, why can’t managers plan work with the same intelligence? The goal isn’t to make women “like men,” but to manage with facts, reduce stigma, and build teams that run on trust. Along the way, Celine opens up about juggling three kids and a startup, choosing care over scale, and learning when to reroute instead of forcing locked doors. If you’ve ever felt the pinch of taboo at work, the confusion of conflicting health info, or the guilt of plastic waste, this conversation offers clarity, tools, and hope.
