Let’s Talk with Milina Opsenica

This week Isabella sat down with Milina Opsenica. Milina is the founder of Beyond The Cusp, workshops that work to empower Mums and their daughters to be comfortable with their first period, understand their menstrual cycle, and welcome them into becoming a young woman. She is on a mission to teach girls to understand and trust their bodies, to not be ashamed of their periods, and to be comfortable with the changes they are going through. Milina is happily married, with two daughters and a son, and periods are now a very normal topic of conversation in her home. We talk on what led Milina to start Beyond the Cusp, and what changes she’s made within her own family to bring greater awareness towards periods and the menstrual cycle. She shares her own experiences around the education she received growing up, and how you can navigate the way as mum and talk with your children and family about their bodies, periods and puberty, plus so many other things!
