Ange McCann-Bateman

Hi, my name is Ange, and I live in beautiful tropical Darwin with my husband, Geoff. Darwin is beautifully diverse in its culture, climate, and natural environment, but I also enjoy travelling in Australia and overseas. Other things I love to do are outdoor activities, reading, creative arts, and quality time with family and friends. My work includes counselling, coordinating family strengthening activities and hosting spaces of nurture, creativity, and connection. I am part of a large family, including my one brother and seven sisters. Despite having so many girls in our family, my introduction to menstruation education was very minimal and left me feeling embarrassed about it. This has inspired my passion for the next generations of girls to have a much more positive, fun and awe inspiring experience of menstrual education, which can serve as a positive foundation for their ongoing journey of blossoming into beautiful, unique, and life-giving women.
