This week, Jessie Braun is joined by Tilly Pearce, a showbiz journalist from London. Together the girls discuss sex education in the U.K., bonding over P.C.O.S., and Tilly's journey to becoming confident about having periods with male housemates.

Tilly speaks about the UK advertised "skirt" tampons that Jessie has never heard of. In the US, Tampax advertises the "pearl" feature of the Tampax tampon. See skirt tampon below.

 We all remember getting the infamous 'Talk'; it can be embarrassing and awkward and make you want to burrow away and never face the world again. This week, Jessie chats with her Mom Lonnie about their introductions to menstruation and the role education played with how comfortable they were with periods. Lonnie opens up about infertility, period tracking, and motherhood. Throughout the episode, they chat about everything from first period stories to cancer scares to that elusive menopause. The open and engaging conversation reminds us why, sometimes, we just need our Mommy's.
