34. Cycle Syncing 101: How to Work With Your Hormones Instead of Against Them


Listen Later

Today's topic is one of the MOST requested subjects (and one of my favorite to discuss)... cycle syncing!

Cycle syncing is how to adjust your lifestyle with your menstrual cycle (the entire cycle, not just your period)

This episode is truly a masterclass on your cycle. I walk you through what’s actually happening in your body across all four phases of the menstrual cycle and how understanding this rhythm can completely change your relationship with your body, your productivity, your self-worth, and your energy.

So many of us were never taught how our bodies work. We were taught to push, override, and show up the same every single day — even though our bodies are cyclical, not linear. Cycle syncing invites us to work with our bodies instead of against them.

In this episode, I cover:

  • What the menstrual cycle actually is (and how women often confuse their period as their entire cycle)

  • What cycle syncing really means and how you can integrate it into your life

  • The four phases of the menstrual cycle (menstrual, follicular, ovulation, luteal)

  • How each phase impacts your energy, mood, focus, and nervous system

  • How to adjust movement, workouts, productivity, and social energy in each phase

  • Nutrition support for each phase

  • How cycle awareness builds self-trust, self-compassion, and embodiment

Whether you’re brand new to cycle syncing or already tracking your cycle, my intention is to help you build awareness and strengthen your knowledge so you can live with more ease, alignment, and trust in your body.

Share this episode with a woman in your life — or honestly, a man you want to understand you better.
