Work With Your Cycle: Hormone-Based Productivity & Profit for Women in Business

In this episode of Work With Your Cycle , I'm talking about one of the biggest misconceptions surrounding cycle syncing: the belief that you have to follow it perfectly for it to work. But what happens when a client schedules a call during your menstrual phase? What if your launch lands in your luteal phase? Or life throws you a curveball that doesn't fit neatly into your ideal calendar? T...

In this episode of Work With Your Cycle , I sit down with brand and web designer Emily Ruven to talk about what branding really means—and spoiler alert: it's so much more than choosing colors, fonts, or designing a beautiful website.

In this episode of Work With Your Cycle , I'm challenging one of the most common beliefs women entrepreneurs have about success: the idea that consistency comes from discipline, willpower, and doing the same thing every single day.

In this episode of Work With Your Cycle , I'm tackling one of the biggest frustrations I see among women entrepreneurs: knowing exactly what you need to do but still not doing it. You know resting during your menstrual phase would help. You know batching content during your follicular phase makes sense. You know setting boundaries would protect your energy. But somehow, that knowledge never tu...

Before coaching, I ran a successful bookkeeping business while trying to juggle chronic illness in my family, caregiving, constant client work, and the pressure to always keep pushing forward. Eventually, my body forced me to stop.

It’s a common story: you go on birth control for reasons beyond pregnancy prevention, then you come off it and discover your original symptoms are back, often worse.  The traditional advice? “Just wait six months for your hormones to rebalance.” But what if that's not enough, and what if your hormones aren't even the core issue? This episode challenges that common narrative, revealing why...

We talk a lot about the different phases of the cycle as related to the seasons of the year, a complete cycle each month. Well our energy does the same daily, weekly, and yes, yearly. For me, winter 2025/2026 felt like a winter emotionally and physically deeper than I can remember. You may have felt the same way and needed more rest and did more reflecting, even in the higher energy phases. But th...

The simplest way to prevent pregnancy is to use some type of birth control that comes out of a pharmacy.

And, on the flip side, many women struggle to become pregnant despite not being on any type of birth control, so it’s not as simple as it seems.  In today’s episode, we are talking to Ines Tielas,...
