Menses Myth Busters
Menses Myth Busters is meant to better understand your first period. What is true? What are the rumors? When should you expect your first period? Should your period be regular? We will answer these questions and many more!
These highly recommended and interactive workshops about the POWER of Periods are facilitated by our CEO Lynette.
"Hi its N M and S and we're the PERIOD POWER girls! WE gain our super powers from our strong friendship vibes and our crazy conversations about our periods. We are all girlfriends but our period cycles and experiences are different because one size, choice or situation doesn’t it all. Periods are just as diverse or different as us PPG girls!"
