Ready to smash period stigma and laugh about the chaos of cycles? In this unfiltered episode of the Her Shift Podcast, Anna teams up with writer and creative powerhouse Heather Hendrie—one of the bold voices behind the bestselling Amazon anthology Awfully Hilarious: Period Pieces—for a raw, funny, and deeply honest conversation about PMDD, period shame, and the wild ride of the menstrual cycle.

What’s inside:

  • Real talk about PMDD (Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder) and why it’s more than “just PMS”
  • How period shame still shapes our culture—and how to say goodbye to it for good
  • Hilarious and heartfelt stories from Heather’s “Awfully Hilarious: Period Pieces” and the inspiration behind her writing
  • The magic and mess of our cycles: Maiden, Mother, Crone, and all the glorious chaos in between
  • Why talking (and laughing) about periods is a radical act of self-love and healing

Whether you’ve ever cried over a tampon ad, raged at your hormones, or laughed your knickers off at an awkward leak, this episode is for you. Listen in, laugh loud, and bleed proud.
