Every woman has been at odds with her health at some point in her life. Often, the disconnect starts before any symptoms do. It starts with our self-talk and the daily micro-decisions that tell our bodies what we actually value.
Dose of Pause is a mother-daughter podcast uncovering lessons in womanhood across our healthspan, including how our environment, ambitions, and fears impact our health.

These insights reframe how women can live life with their cycle rather than in spite of it. Rajinder and Kavita open up about their own struggles with cycle irregularities, including what they wish they had known about periods gr...
