Meet your guide…
Hi, I’m Milina, founder of Blooming Periods. I started Blooming Periods in early 2019. A few years ago when my oldest daughter was 9 I started to think about how I wanted to talk to my daughter’s about their periods and their changing body. As I researched I found that I didn’t know as much as I thought I knew so I decided to educate myself on what the menstrual cycle actually was. My mind was blown, and I actually felt felt ripped off. I felt like for the last twenty years I had not known my own body, and had instead felt embarrassed and ashamed. The more I learnt, the more I was convinced that I did not want the same thing for my daughters.
This is why I started Blooming Periods. I found so many of my friends were in the same boat. They didn’t know how to talk to their daughters about periods and they wanted to change their own story. They wanted to do things differently to how they experienced things. If you want for your daughter a different experience then I’d love for you to come in, have a look at what I do, and share this amazing knowledge with your daughter’s too.
When I first started facilitating these workshops, I knew the message was one that I wanted to be able to spread as far as possible. I’ve been able to take these workshops to different cities across Australia and New Zealand, country towns and now even online and virtually. The response has been incredibly fulfilling.
I wasn’t sure how I could spread this even further, until I was contacted in a matter of days by a few women asking if I could train them to run the workshops in this area. It took me a few months of working out the best course of action, and I’ve finally come up with a program that I feel fully supports those who partake to run successful workshops and make the impact they want to make with their own community.
I now have a wonderful community of women making a difference in their own community’s. Changing the way our young girls see they bodies, celebrating their menstrual cycle, and opening up conversations in their households.
