Today is bittersweet, we are posting our final episode of both the Bloom and our Mainline podcast. For the past 6 months we have enjoyed an incredible run of inspirational women sharing with us, the stories that defined them and those that they did not let define them. We thank everyone who joined us on this journey, and hope that you felt as strongly a part of the community that we were trying to connect as we did. For more info please listen to today's episode on Apple/Spotify/Patreon. Our catalog will remain available for the foreseeable future. We do have a few ideas up our sleeves for Women With Strength, and this will be our primary channel for the future. Thanks for lending us your ears!

Rose and Sarah
Our guests this week are Rose and Sarah, co-founders of Period Project NC. They started the organization during their sophomore year as a reaction to their negative experiences with having their periods at school. As the age of menarche has been decreasing (Sarah and Rose had their first period at 10 years old), they have found education, conversation and products to be inadequate. Period Project's goal is to normalize menstruation in conversation and ensure that all young women can experience their periods in dignity.

LaToya Faustin
Our guest this week is LaToya Faustin, Executive Director of She Built This City. She Built This City is a nonprofit organization, whose goal is to build pathways for women in industries that they have had low historic representation, the skilled trades. In our conversation we learn about LaToya's history of service as a teacher and community builder. She talks us through the ways the organization confronts the barriers to women successfully developing the skills necessary to land the job and how She Built This City ensures everyone leaving this program has the skills, confidence and tools for the trade. Please visit shebuiltthiscity.org for more information on how you can donate or volunteer with them.
