Once she took the time to really listen to the concerns lawmakers had passing a law to make period products available for free in public schools and state buildings, she was better able to address their misconceptions and get the law passed. \\n\\nPodcast Guest:\\nEmily Bell McCormick, founder of The Policy Project (Teen Health Centers and The Period Project)\\n\\nTop of Mind would love to hear your Stick With It story.
