About this episode

There’s no way you won’t be inspired after hearing Nadya Okamoto in the O.R.! She started her own non-profit when she was only 16, and now she’s one of the founders of a period product line that aims to remove the stigma from periods!
 
Nadya shares her incredible story of finding a balance between work and rest, and she opens up about the toxic reality of “girl boss” mentality.
 
Plus, you may learn more about your OWN anatomy by the time we’re through!
