Chloe Skerlak, HRHP, FAE and Genevieve Rajoy, HRHPE, FAE

Chloe Skerlak is a Certified Justisse FAE and passionate, period-positive educator based in Edmonton, Alberta. With over a decade of experience in menstrual and reproductive health, Chloe specializes in teaching people of all ages how to understand, appreciate, and work with their menstrual cycles. She’s especially known for her engaging, shame-free approach to cycle education for tweens and teens. Through her Period Positivity workshops, Chloe creates safe, fun, and empowering spaces where young people can explore body literacy, charting basics, cervical mucus, and conscious cycle care — all while dismantling the stigma that too often surrounds menstruation. Her teaching style is playful yet grounded in science, combining storytelling, hands-on activities, and relatable analogies that make fertility awareness accessible and affirming. Chloe has facilitated workshops in schools, community groups, and private settings, and is deeply committed to helping the next generation grow up informed and confident in their bodies. What We’ll Explore Chloe will discuss how introducing young people to their menstrual cycles and fertility can shape their relationship with their bodies for life. Topics will cover why it matters to teach body literacy early — not just for menstrual management, but for cultivating self-trust, confidence, and a grounded understanding of the body’s natural rhythms. She will walk us through how she structures youth-friendly fertility awareness workshops, including games, storytelling, and charting activities that are engaging and age-appropriate. The audience will also reflect on the mindset and skills needed to teach this work well: how to create a safer, inclusive space, how to honour diverse experiences of puberty and menstruation, and how to answer tricky questions with grace. She’ll share real-life examples of what’s worked (and what hasn’t), plus ideas for customizing the content to different age groups or settings (schools, community groups, or parent-child workshops). Finally, Chloe will touch on the practical side — marketing, collaboration with schools or parents, and finding your unique voice in this space. Whether you're already working with youth or just feeling the call to begin, this session will leave you inspired, resourced, and more confident to guide the next generation into cycle wisdom.
