I believe a collective healing happens when people from that collective share their stories out loud, when the story no longer remains untold, hushed, and forgotten.
For many of the women I interviewed, no one had asked them about the story of their first period, it was a forgotten story one not to be brought up…
I was honoured to hear them tell their stories for the first time.
This collection of first period stories, I see it as a healing circle, but also as an archive of stories for those who have not yet stepped into their cycle.
There is a power and beauty in sharing our stories….
WANT TO SHARE YOU 1st PERIOD STORY?
Sharing connects us to each other, and has the power to bind us and heal us.
There are two way to go about it.
You can either send me a video of around 2-3min, looking straight into the camera and sharing your first period story.
Or you can send me a picture of you around the time you got you first period along with your written story.
