101. VivaLaVulva with Kath Mazzella

Wednesday Sep 07, 2022

For today's episode, we speak with world-renowned women’s advocate - Kath Mazzella.

Kath will give us a sneak peek into the topic of a gynaecological health issue that is rarely spoken about.

At 42, Kath was a busy working mother and she left her health to her doctors. However, one day she noticed a lump on her vulva that hadn’t been there before, and on her mother’s advice, she sought out medical help.

This unusual lump led to her being diagnosed with vulval cancer.

Following this diagnosis, she discovered that support surrounding women's gynae health topics was scarce. Now 27 years after, she still finds it the same - support is scarce and discussions around it are still not that popular and it is her mission to change this.

So, we hope that with today's episode and through this podcast, we get to give this topic the attention it needs.

Kath walks us through her experience, her journey and life mission to find answers, and her advocacy - VivaLaVulva!

If you would like to help spread awareness, we'd be so happy if you would wear your red knickers (like Superman does!) on the outside of your pants on the 10th of September, that's this Saturday! Then when someone asks you why tell them…..

We'll be waiting for your pictures in the email. 😉 Send them to info@thepenisproject.org or reply back to this email.
