What's up ladies, welcome to class! I'm your host, Autumn Paone, here to have real, honest conversations about everything you should have learned in school about the female body but didn’t. From hormones to living cyclically to the stuff no one talks about, I'm breaking it all down so you can understand your body and actually work with it, not against it.
If you’ve ever been told your pain is “just part of being a woman,” that your period problems are “normal,” or that the only solution is yet another round of hormonal birth control when it's failed you time and time again, you’ve been lied to. Let's call out the gaslighting, expose the BS, and expand education on women's health. Educated women = empowered women!
This podcast is for you if you find yourself asking questions such as:
What are the menstrual cycle phases?
What is ovulation?
How do I cycle sync?
What else did they fail to mention in sex-ed and health class?
How do I track my cycle?
Are there non-hormonal birth control options?
What is endometriosis? PCOS? PMDD?
How do I manage my endometriosis pain?
What is hormone imbalance?
Why is women's health so under-researched?
What research does exist for women's health?
So grab your notebooks (or don't, no one's grading you) and get ready for unfiltered convos with amazing guests, fiery rants, and the real education you deserve.
*DISCLAIMERS: I am not a medical professional. Always seek a healthcare professional before implementing any serious lifestyle changes, taking new supplements, and/or engaging in new forms of exercise. Nothing (literally nothing) I say should be taken as medical advice. Do your own research, listen to & trust your body, and advocate for yourself always. I love you <3

What's up ladies, welcome to class! Today I'm joined by therapist, author, coach, and absolute pleasure Kristin Louise Duncombe!
TRIGGER WARNING: The episode and following description detail topics that may be triggering or uncomfortable for some individuals, including childhood sexual assault. Use discretion. Links to crisis hotlines can be found below.
Kristen and I begin our discussion with her latest memoir, Object, a powerful read about being habitually sexually assaulted by her father's colleague and how it affected her life for decades. We dive into the disturbing parallels between the current U.S. political climate and her experience with the U.S. government covering for a serial pedophile in the 80s.
We then venture into toxic beauty culture, including raising the oh-so-important question of how men would see the world if we flipped the script. Even more interesting, we end up in the world of pornography: What does porn teach us about sex? What damaging gender roles are reinforced through it? How is the landscape of porn changing?
Kristin's perspective is profound, having the unique experience of dating both before and after the dawn of internet porn and dating apps.
Ultimately, our conversation advocates for a more empowered and informed approach to women's health, consent, and sexuality. While the topics are at times heavy, we have a fun and hopefully inspiring conversation that will leave you with hope and radical confidence.
