The Tampon Aisle

In Part One , we talked about the emotional side of money. The shame, the fear, the ways our nervous systems get wrapped up in it. In this episode, we move into the practical side. What it looks like to actually sit down with your money and start working with it. We talk about: how to figure out what your life actually costs the difference between bills, household, and personal spending why most “...

We’re taking in more information than the human body was designed to process. Not just more information, but more intense information. Constantly. Rapidly. Without context or pacing. In this episode, Olivia sits down with journalist Kara Hackett to explore what it actually costs to stay informed right now and why “being informed” has quietly started to mean “taking everything in.” Together, they u...

Let’s be honest. A lot of us don’t have a confidence problem. We have a visibility problem. And not because we don’t have something to say. But because being seen feels… activating. On The Tampon Aisle, I talk about the things we’re usually encouraged to shrink around. This week: microphones, rejection, and why women are still wildly underfunded. I sat down with Krista Ripma — founder and CEO of A...

Your body isn’t broken. It’s cyclical. In this episode of The Tampon Aisle , I sit down with Dr. Molly Latin to talk about periods, pelvises, and why your body might be smarter than you’ve been taught to believe. Dr. Mo is a naturopathic doctor and yoga teacher whose work blends real physiology with deep embodiment. Together, we explore how understanding your menstrual cycle can change the way you...

What It Costs to Feel Safe, Part One On money, survival, and learning to want more Money carries more than numbers. It holds family stories, nervous system patterns, and quiet beliefs about what we are allowed to want. For many of us, it is not the math that’s hard. It is the feeling. In this episode, Olivia sits down with Jenny Girl Friday , a money, tax, and business strategist who has spent ove...

What happens when the spaces that once held us stop holding? This week on The Tampon Aisle , I sit down with Chris Curia (he/they) , a therapist, educator, and community organizer who has spent years asking what it means to heal when the system itself is sick. We talk about life after church - not the loss of belief, but the reimagining of it. Why healing is never just about the self, and how libe...

Another week, another taboo cracked open. What if pleasure isn’t the problem — it’s the permission? This week on The Tampon Aisle , I talk with Olaiya Land , a Pleasure and Sexual Empowerment Coach who helps women and gender-expansive folks get out of their heads and back into their bodies. We get into purity-culture hangovers, the politics of the word slut , and what actually happens when you sto...

This week I sat down with Ariel June (she/her) - psychedelic guide, mystic, and professional reminder that your soul has better things to do than people-please. We talk drugs, God, and what it actually means to live like you meant to be here. Ariel’s work isn’t about “fixing yourself” - it’s about remembering, rebelling, and choosing radical aliveness over spiritual beige. If you’ve been feeling t...

Dear listeners~ In this intimate conversation, Core Energetics practitioner Natasha Kuhn invites us to move beyond the edges of a diagnosis and into the textured landscape of lived experience. Naming PTSD can feel like stepping into a delicate frame—one that holds both the weight of pain and the invitation to transformation. Natasha offers a tender exploration of what it means to embody trauma wit...

In this episode, Olivia takes you on a personal journey of disembodiment, starting with childhood and the moment she began strategizing instead of feeling. From quoting The Parent Trap to trying to fix her parents’ relationship, Olivia shares how early experiences led her to leave her body and live in her head. She dives into the consequences of that, how society rewards us for being “rational” an...

Lace up your skates—or, honestly, just sit back and get comfy—because E Corry Kole (they/them) is gliding straight into your ears with a podcast that’s part existential reckoning, part late-night sprawl across the kitchen table. death, rebirth, & queerness (feat. roller skates) does exactly what it says on the tin: an unflinching, deeply human exploration of the messy, magical transitions that sha...
