Last week, for my Soulful Couture podcast, I had the pleasure of speaking with Sandra Parker, the founder of Justine Haines, the Montreal-based label making eco-conscious period panties, a great accessory to help protect our gorgeous planet, (pardon the scruffy voice, I was overcoming a cold during the recording).
