Wait, what now? 😳 In this clip from the MENO podcast, Jacqueline Buckingham sits down with Val Emanuel, the founder and CEO of Rif Care (Regenerative International Female), to discuss a shocking reality about the menstrual care industry. Did you know that tampons and pads weren't actually tested with real blood until 2023? For decades, the industry standard for testing was just salt water. As Val points out, salt water is definitely not the same as blood—leaving us all wondering how these products were ever properly evaluated. It is time for healthy, sustainable, and responsible menstrual care. 🩸✨ Drop your thoughts in the comments below—did you know this? 👇 Full Episode: Link in bio. Welcome to MENO™. You have arrived.

Should menopause have its own symbol? 💭✨ From baby showers to engagement rings, we mark so many of life’s major milestones with meaningful symbols and celebrations. So why not menopause? In this clip from MENO with Jacqueline Buckingham, board-certified OB/GYN and author of The Menopause Bootcamp, Dr. Suzanne Gilberg-Lenz, discusses the idea of creating a universal symbol for menopause. Jacqueline shares her experience living in New Zealand, where Māori women receive chin tattoos (Moko Kauae) as a sacred mark of power, maturity, and status. If menopause had a symbol, what would you want it to be? Drop your ideas in the comments! 👇 Full Episode link in bio! Welcome to MENO™. You have arrived. Pausing or not, start here.
