About this episode
Remember your first period? Chances are, it was confusing, a little weird, and came with a side of panic (and possibly a secret stash of pads in your school bag).
In this episode, we look back at The First Cycle: how it shaped our early ideas of being ‘grown up’ and how we juggled school, sport, and surprises in our undies.
