cool stuff
Hello and welcome to elissastein.com—I wear many hats these days: writer, consultant, advocate, expert, activist, designer, crafter, and more. Feel free to peruse this site and explore what I've been up to lately and a bit back in the day.
I've officially started working on Wrinkled—women, aging, and the stories we've been sold. Come follow my journey on Substack as pieces start to fall into place.
Gurl, Stop, the endlessly topical and entertaining podcast I do with two fabulous fellow activists has been out in the world for more than three years. It's truly must listen.

Last year I had the once in a lifetime honor to head up
Cat Ladies Unite! at the Village Halloween Parade in NYC - it was not so subtle political statement about unity and community.
FLOW: the Cultural Story of Menstruation is the book that keeps on giving. Was delighted to be a part of a very cool project with Condé Nast and Kotex: me talking history and chatting about the importance of open conversation.
And, it was recently noted as one of 8 great feminist microhistories at Bookriot. I'll take that.

My WASH YOUR HANDS project was/is a bright light in crazy days. Pieces are in a History Responds collection at the New York Historical Society, which is a complete and total thrill. Equally fabulous is that some of that donated work appeared on the cover of Time for Kids. Wow!
