This was my ‘lightbulb moment'. I knew something had to change about the way we handled menstruation.” - Ruby Raut, Founder & CEO Ruby grew up in Nepal, where shame about periods was widespread. Nachune is the Nepalese word for period which basically translates as 'untouchable'. When she started her period, she experienced a form of Chapaudi, now illegal in Nepal. During menstruation, she was sent to her aunt's house and wasn't allowed to go out in the sun, look at men, or touch plants - as it was believed that she would kill them - just because she was having a period. Like other girls, she was given old sari rags to use for the bleeding, which happened to be reusable and eco-friendly, but not hygienic. They weren't leak-proof nor comfortable, and didn't work for her when she played sports! When she arrived in the UK, she was astonished by the wide range of menstrual products available on the shelves, but quickly realised that most of them were neither comfortable nor leak-proof, and they certainly were not eco-friendly. So it became Ruby mission to replace plastic-riddled disposable pads & tampons with the world's most comfortable and sustainable period underwear.

In this bumper episode, Esther and Holly launch into it with the week's headline event: Holly's fight with one of Bath's resident Herring Gulls. One stressful day later, and bolstered with a tetanus jab, she is FINE, and has used the experience to boost our stats on the podcast. Good girl. Then, less interestingly, Esther ran the London Vitality 10,000 on Monday, so lots of chat about the experience, the runners, the course, the time. Then Esther and Holly talk to comedians Scummy Mummies, one of which (the lovely Helen Thorn) was also running the V10K on Monday as well. They chat about running, their enduring friendship, and the big life changes that Helen has been through over the past couple of years. Be warned, it's a bit sweary – but when isn't the WR Podcast? Then there's lots of chat about your embarrassing moments, which Esther and Holly have LOVED, so do please continue to send in, as it makes them feel so much better about their own.SponsoredThis Podcast is Sponsored by Lucy Locket Loves.

In this episode, I'm joined by Ruby Renaut, founder of WUKA, an ethically and sustainably sourced brand that creates the most beautifully designed period products. WUKA stands for Wake-Up Kick-Ass and is on a mission to break down body and period taboos, emphasising that periods are not shameful. Ruby grew up in Nepal. She shares her experience of Nepalese culture where girls are seen to be untouchable whilst on their period and therefore separated from their families. She has also launched a campaign calling on the government to remove the tax on period pants which is still an ongoing battle. Both ruby's story and mission is fascinating and I hope that you enjoy listening.

SHOWNOTES My guest for the 35th episode of The Elephant in the Room podcast is Ruby Raut co-founder and CEO of WUKA. Founded in 2017, WUKA is a female-led start up, making the UK's first ever reusable and leak-proof period wear. The business idea came to her while studying environmental science and learning that 200,000 tonnes of tampons and pads end up in landfills in the UK.  WUKA stands for Wake Up Kick Ass because the belief is that nothing should hold women back during their period. The mission is to make sustainable lifestyles accessible to everyone, because sustainability should not be a luxury, and periods are not a luxury.  Ruby is also determined to break down the continuing stigma around periods. In this episode she speaks about growing up in Nepal, moving to the UK to find her purpose. Her journey to becoming an entrepreneur.  We also spoke about

Climate change is a big problem and sometimes it can feel so big that we don't feel we can do anything about it. Wrong. The only way it's going to get better is if we do something. Humans are the problem but we are also the only solution. I have read ‘How to save the world for free' by Natalie Fee which has really inspired me to make this episode and I really hope you begin to make some changes in your life to help fight climate change. We can't change things overnight but every little change counts. Let's learn more together and start saving the world before it's too late.

The growth is all down to us finally realising how our sexual health is intrinsically linked with our physical and mental health and as Grace says, who doesn't want to have better sex?In this podcast we chat about Grace's journey to becoming a sex coach, which began with a very painful experience of Vulvodynia (also known as chronic vulva pain) that she suffered for a decade, how she healed herself naturally by taking part in shamanic plant medicine ceremonies and empowered herself, leading her to wanting to help others.

Ruby Raut is the founder and CEO of WUKA, a period pants brand that does good. Ruby grew up in Nepal and was given old sari rags to use as in place of period products, a sustainable but unhygienic alternative to tampons and pads. It was this concept, using reusable materials in place of disposables, that gave Ruby the inspiration to found WUKA.In 2019, Ruby took part in the Vitality 10K with Bryony Gordon's Mental Health Mates and Celebrate You body confidence campaign. The only requirement was that she (along with the rest of the group) had to run the race in WUKA underwear and relatively nothing else!In this episode, Ruby explains how WUKA's Perform range provides a sustainable and leakproof choice for women who run, as well as discussing what it was like to run a 10K in just her underwear! Plus, Emily and Ruby open up the conversation about periods to break taboos and raise awareness of the period pants tax.

We reflect on the shaming culture of periods, how it has affected us personally and what it means for girls development. We discuss the progress made over the past few years, but also question the lack of effort from governmental bodies, and argue how toxic and absurd the stigma of periods is. We end with a with positive message to look forward to, and the steps we can all take towards effective change.

As someone who was known as “the girl who got her period back” for a while, I have never actually addressed periods on my podcast until now. In this two-part episode with WUKA founder Ruby Raut as well as coach, physician and researcher Megan Roche.  Ruby was born in Nepal, and shared her experience as a young girl who would got sent to her aunt's house during her period and would not be allowed to talk to any boys or men. That experience internalized a shame in Ruby that she was determined to bring out into the light. Ruby founded WUKA, the UKs first period pants brand, and while I have no affiliation to the brand, I am inspired by Ruby and all she has done to change the conversation and look after our planet (especially as the brand was started in my hometown...which I did not realize till we talked in the interview!). In part 2, Meg and I discuss the logistics of running on a period. Does it help or hinder your running? What period products are options for runners? And most importantly, how do we stop feeling embarrassed about something that 50% of the population goes through every month. I also ask her how the heck ultra-marathoners do it! This episode was long overdue, and I really believe it will be valuable to runners. Take a listen. Ruby Raut Ruby is originally from Nepal and now lives in St. Albans, England (Tina’s hometown). She is the co-founder and CEO of WUKA, the UK’s 1st period underwear brand. Ruby is an environmentalist at heart and is doing her part in making it easier for women to have access to period products that don’t harm our planet.  When she was young, Ruby shared about the experience of getting her first period. In Nepal, her mom made her a makeshift pad with an old saris cut into squares. Then she got sent to her aunt’s house and during her period was not allowed to see boys or men, be out in the sun, or leave the house.  Ruby shares how the taboo around periods in Nepal is very strong but even after moving to the UK, she realized that even with more access to disposable menstruation products, there was still shame around periods.  Ruby saw this as an opportunity to tackle the period taboo and the environmental factor that comes with single-use menstruation products. That’s why WUKA was born– as a sustainable solution to period products and is on a mission to make them accessible to everyone who needs them.  Megan Roche As a coach, physician, and researcher, Megan Roche (previously on R4R episode 109) sees many athletes who come talk to her about their menstrual cycle. She shares that the number one thing is taboo. That many athletes have trouble vocalizing what they are experiencing  “I've seen that a lot more coaches, especially due to the work by Stacy Sims, who highlights kind of training around the menstrual cycle training, with the menstrual cycle. There are more and more coaches just straight out asking athletes and talking about the menstrual cycle as this very early conversation in the coaching process,” Megan says. For example, before starting your period, there’s a phase many people feel tired and bloated. But a lot of athletes know that when you get your period, you're primed and ready for competition. Megan shares that her husband, David, is a coach to many female athletes and creates an open environment about the topic. Because if a coach understands how you're feeling around the menstrual cycle-related to performance it can help them contextualize the importance of it. When it comes to long Ultra races, Megan explains that period blood is just like other bodily fluids. People just have to be prepared for it and understand it’s just another variable on the day. Changing tampons or silicone cups during trail races is part of it. She also says it can be helpful to use a chafing cream such as Squirrel’s Nut Butter as well as packing an extra pair of shorts.   Resources: Learn more about WUKA Listen to Megan Roche's podcast, The Happy Runner   Thank you to my wonderful sponsor goodr, Generation UCAN, and Momentous for sponsoring this episode of the Running for Real Podcast.   I have been a fan of goodr for YEARS and I literally have their sunglasses all over my house.

This week I’m joined by Ruby Raut the Founder of Wuka Wear. Wuka wear is the UK’s first-period underwear. Ruby is originally from Nepal where they practised Chhaupadi, a practice that exiled women to period huts while they were on their periods. This has lead Ruby to design and manufacture Wuka wear with no prior experience in fashion or manufacturing.She hopes that the pants will be a part of a broader conversation, but as you’ll hear in this episode, her biggest challenge is creating a business in an industry that’s taboo. The key takeaways from this episode are finding ways to overcome taboo subjects for your brand.How to be successful despite having a business that people won’t publicly share or endorse and how you can get one step closer to being successful.Huge thank you to Ruby from Wuka Wear who is currently fundraising on Kickstarter. Donate to the campaign here.
