#49 – How to talk confidently about your struggles with your period – Interview with Carmen Lorenzana

“Sorry, I have my menstruation. I cannot attend this business meeting – I want to rest!” Have you ever said that at work to your boss? Have you heard it from others? Would you be judged as unprofessional, too sensitive and weak? Do you even judge yourself when you have your period? In this podcast episode, I talk with Carmen Lorenzana who became a menstrual educator and fertility coach after she suffered from an irregular cycle and was diagnosed with PCOS. I have never talked to a person who knows so much about the female cycle! It is still an overlooked topic in our male-dominated world. In this interview you will learn: Why the female cycle is much more than just having a period How you understand your emotions and mental challenges How to talk about your cycle to others What 9-to-5 working hours have to do with testosterone How you can handle your period at work Carmen is offering on-site workshops and online coachings.
