We have two fierce and fun guests on the podcast today, Kate Duffy and Gayle Stevens-White, they are grassroot campaigners who have collaborated and founded, Bloody Negligence, a movement that is exposing neglect in women’s healthcare from menstruation to menopause and everything in-between, they want to empower women to have their say and ‘get shit done’!We have met these incredible women many times before on the campaign trail and it is always an absolute treat to chat to them, we leave no stone unturned, we talk menopause and get absolutely furious at the bias in women’s health care.Get the kettle on and get ready for this lively chat. In the Book Collective we continue reading, Unwell Women by Elinor Cleghorn, this week we read Chapters, 9 & 10, we meet the extraordinary suffragettes and learn about the hideous suffering they went through and the extraordinary women that fought for women’s freedom. We also find out about ‘silent births’ and why the patriarchy didn’t think this was such a good idea.You can join in with our Book Club, send us a DM or voice note with your thoughts on the book. We learn some new acronyms that might get you in a wordy spin and Jinty finds out how many swimming pools are closing in England and how it’s affecting women, she also talks avocados…. You may never look at one in the same way again!It’s another episode brimming with chat and all the usual sweary shenanigans! So, settle in for this hour(ish) podcast full of meaningful chat.
