2400

For this new episode, I sat down with Anna Buzzoni who I’ve met about one year ago. She was giving one of her Medulla Workshop in Berlin. It was an introduction to the menstrual cycle. Understanding the different phases and how it mimics other life cycles (breathing, nature with seasons, the moon) I remember it like an aha moment. I knew I would use what I’ve learned for myself. And here we are one year later! :) d If you’re interested in taking Anna’s workshop in Berlin, her website and her Facebook are great places to start: --> https://bit.ly/2CKUFII --> https://www.facebook.com/Medullainsights I hope you’ll enjoy this insightful conversation and Anna’s silky voice as much as I did working on this episode!

This time, I sat down with Isabel who came to mine to talk about the periods topic. A lot of things have been said! I was really curious about her crafting art and what brought her to make embroidery pieces (among many other beautiful things she makes) around menstruations. Through her art and the collective that she created Crafts&Cramps, Isabel wants to "spark a conversation" and I knew before our interview that we will have a great one!

In this new episode, I sat down with Teona, one of my friend here in Berlin. As I told you once, I'm a lucky one because I'm surrounded by fantastic & inspiring people. Teona is one of them. We shared a great moment and had great conversation. And we talked about many things: Menstruating in Berlin compared to Tbilissi (Gerorgia), how first intros to periods are often kind of secret or mysterious and why it's a "women business" 04:04: My name is Teo… and being excluded from the chat between mom & sisters 07:54: Georgian society and the topic of menstruations 9:48 The impact of orthodox religion in the taboo 12:35 The ultimate fear of the blood spot 14:00 What has changed when coming to Berlin 16:30 “It’s also connected to your sexual life” 19:30 I had this feeling “I’m part of the gang now” 24:40 Are you already thinking about menopause? 27:00 pads and cups, talking about what the future holds for menstruants 31:18 Independent women are always in a process

Aujourd’hui on en parle avec Floriane, que j’ai rencontré lors d’une réunion de l’association Les Internettes. Je me souviens de son contact facile, de sa curiosité et la profondeur de 1ers échanges avant de me rendre compte que Floriane, je l’avais déjà croisé sur le net il y’a deux ans. J’étais tombé sur sa chaîne Queer Chrétienne et je m’étais tout de suite abonné à sa chaîne. Ce qui m’avait tout de suite plu chez elle, la force de son message: Que ce n’est pas aux autres de nous de nous définir, il appartient à chacun de trouver sa vérité. En ce qui concerne les religion, Il y’a probablement, certainement, pas mal de choses à réinterpréter encore. Ayant moi même grandi dans la foi musulmane, j’avais très envie de confronter mon expérience, de parler menstruations & religion avec Floriane, de voir ensemble ce que la foi, les pratiques et les textes religieuses disent du sang menstruel et puis comment on mène cette déconstruction individuelle quand on fait partie d’une communauté con
