In short, it means “Follow The Light of the Star.” The longer explanation goes something like this: You know the script: “Is it hot in here or is it me?,” we whisper during a sudden hot flash. “Keep acting like you’re enjoying it,” we tell ourselves during painful, dry sex. “Nod and they’ll think I’m following along,” says our inner voice when brain fog rolls in again.

Like it or not, these are the markers of a woman’s life. Every girl, if she’s lucky, will live long enough to experience the cycles of womanhood and gain some hard-earned wisdom along the way. Push aside those familiar feelings of shame and embarrassment; we know surviving (and thriving) major changes is something to be proud of, even boast about.

So share your experiences with us, and offer them up to those coming behind you with pride and generosity. We think the whispers need some added volume so we can hold onto the fact that even though our specific experiences are unique, we live through the same phases. Find comfort in those who have gone before you.
