Speaker Bio
Hi, I’m Holly! I have been a Life Skills Coach for 25+ years, and most recently I have founded Hello Period’s Canadian not-for-profit, “Periods for All” because I'm a passionate advocate for inclusivity and accessibility. With a strong dedication to supporting the disabled community, I strive to break down barriers surrounding periods. My mission is to empower individuals living with disabilities by providing them with the knowledge, resources, and support they need to navigate the menstrual experience comfortably and confidently. Through my work, I aim to raise awareness about the unique challenges faced by disabled individuals when it comes to managing periods. I believe in the power of creative problem-solving and smart adaptations to ensure that no one feels excluded or left behind. By collaborating with experts, engaging with the disabled community, and staying up-to-date with the latest advancements, I constantly seek innovative solutions to address the specific needs and concerns surrounding periods for individuals with disabilities. Together, let's break down barriers, destigmatize periods, and create a more inclusive world where everyone can fully participate in all aspects of life, regardless of their abilities.
