I am very excited to have found your blog and your book. I have two daughters whom I have struggled with helping through this time and have little support from friends and family who understand the true beauty in becoming a woman. Many hold tightly to societal views of a woman's menstrual cycle and shed a negative light on it. Breaking the norm is challenging - but I'm up for the challenge and I hope that your book will help me teach my girls how to celebrate their womanhood.

Thank you!
