Annie Ridout: There's Value In Vulnerability

My guest on today’s episode of Period Story is Annie Ridout, author, journalist, ghostwriter, poet and life coach.


In this episode, Annie shares:

  • Her sober curious journey and how she’s able to find a balance
  • Her writing career, Substack and the diverse ways she’s able to earn an income
  • Her fascinating new ghostwriting career
  • Her new podcast, Home, which explores the idea of whether home is where we were raised, or where we are now and the part this plays in our identity
  • How she has open conversations with her children about periods
  • And of course, the story of her first period


Annie says there’s value in vulnerability and it’s important to be really honest about how you’re feeling, even if the conversation you’re starting is difficult for other people to hear. She says you don’t have to pretend that you’re feeling fine when you’re not for fear that you’ll destabilise other people.


Thank you, Annie!
