  • Sheela Na Gig Episode 68: My Dispirited Vagina Chronical Pt. 1
    Jan 26 2026
    Happy 2026! No time like the present to deal with a long time lingering problem- My broken Vagina! Yep, that's right friends, I have Vulvodynia but & more specifically Vulvar Vestibulitis, fancy words for chronic pelvic pain, which I've suffered from since my early 30s. I've been in denial for awhile now and haven't addressed this issue in a long time, so I figured, here I am co-creating a podcast that embodies women's empowerment, recognition and perseverance, so it seems strange that I've been unwilling to deal with my broken vagina until now, but hey, again it's a new year and I gotta try to get back on track and see what can be done. Besides, it's not everyday that I get to talk about my vagina! Yay! Join me in my journey, as I seek out medical assistance and try new things to re- address this issue. Joining me in future episodes will be both my Doctor & my Pelvic floor therapist, so stay tuned! And I'd sure love to hear from you if you too suffer from chronic pelvic pain. We'd LOVE the opportunity to talk to other women who are willing to share their stories and see if we can't make this a bigger conversation, since unfortunately Women's health continues to be significantly underfunded. Thanx for listening!!!!

And in 3 delicious flavors-Blanc, Rose & Rouge. In the meantime, do yourself a favor, and stock up on all 3 flavors! You will be so happy!

  • Sheela Na Gig Episode 65: Donaldina Cameron Part 2
    Dec 29 2025
    Donaldina Cameron was a Presbyterian missionary, pioneer and also a real life action hero, in the fight against slavery in San Francisco's Chinatown. In this episode we get to hear about Cameron & her trusty sidekick Tien Wu in full action hero glory- secret mission rescues, axing down doors, being locked in jail cells and escaping crumbling buildings. These Sheelas didn't mess around and we're willing to fearlessly fight for the freedom of more than 3,000 Chinese immigrant girls and women, from forced prostitution or indentured servitude, working tirelessly from 1895 to 1934. To the brothel owners, she was Fahn Quai, the White Devil. To the girls & women she saved who were living in her Mission Home, she was Lo Mo, or Little Mother and to her family, she was Aunt Dolly and history calls her Chinatown’s Angry Angel, Before human trafficking was even called by that name.

  • Sheela Na Gig Episode 64: Donaldina Cameron Part 1
    Dec 24 2025

    Donaldina Cameron was a Presbyterian missionary, pioneer and also a real life action hero, in the fight against slavery in San Francisco's Chinatown.To the brothel owners, she was Fahn Quai, the White Devil. To the girls & women she saved who were living in her Mission Home, she was Lo Mo, or Little Mother and to her family, she was Aunt Dolly and history calls her Chinatown’s Angry Angel, Before human trafficking was even called by that name.

    Cameron helped more than 3,000 Chinese immigrant girls and women escape from forced prostitution or indentured servitude often engaging in action-movie type chases over rooftops and down dark alleys she climbed ladders and crawled into hidden rooms; some say she even wielded an ax to break down doors. Her harrowing & dangerous missions never kept her from accomplishing her goal to rescue these women, working tirelessly from 1895 to 1934.
