The Venn Dialogues
Join Christine & Jacoby, weekly, as they discuss a wide-range of topics they find interesting. The pair will give their perspective on the topic of the week and then look at the research, facts and literature associated with the topic to see if it expands the conversation. These topics will create a dialogue that encourages our listeners to learn more about the world and ourselves. Listen weekly to find out how you can add to the conversation. Follow us at Venn.Dialogues on Instagram and at VennDialoguePod on X (formerly known as twitter).

First they were used to smush boobs together, then an invention gave breasts their own space, but now… is it time to let them go? If you’ve been struggling with your bra, you’re not alone! Let’s dig deeper (no pun intended on your bra band digging into your skin as you read this!!!) into the bra and find out how we got here.

There’s so many more resource links! If there’s a specific topic in the episode you want to explore and want the starting point, let me know! I’ll send the full list.
Challenge: Pick one! 1) If you typically always wear a bra, try a day (or two) without wearing one! How did it feel? I want to know! 2) Try a different kind of bra! Ditch the T-shirt bra, let’s go racer back. 3) Check your bra size! Measure yourself or get yourself measured and see if anything changed.
