Most of us learned to hide our period, not to understand it.
Meanwhile, the world around us, from medicine to the workplace, was largely designed around male data.
On 25 November, the first day of the 16 Days of Activism against gender-based violence, IWNE and Nika Schauss invite you to a hopeful, honest and surprisingly funny evening about the menstrual cycle.
In 90 minutes, about half input and half working together in small groups, you will:
- Get a clear, science-based picture of the four cycle phases and how hormones shape energy, mood and focus.
- Have an easy, judgment-free first conversation about periods with other women.
- Take home one small experiment to try in your next cycle.
Nika Schauss is an organisational psychologist with 14 years in Germany at Goldman Sachs, Deutsche Börse and Emma, and the founder of INKAIA, a cycle-synced drinks brand.
Supported by International Women's Network Estonia (IWNE) and BÄSTARD Gallery & Café. Sharing is always optional.
