94. The Year I Moved Thanksgiving (And Why You Should Too)
Thanksgiving is almost here, and if you're already feeling that familiar knot in your stomach about everything you need to prep, cook, and coordinate… this episode is for you.
In this episode, I'm sharing the story of the year I did something completely revolutionary: I moved Thanksgiving. Yep, you read that right. I rescheduled a major family holiday to align with my menstrual cycle—and it changed everything.
We're diving into why the holiday season is so particularly draining for women, what's happening hormonally when we push through, and most importantly, what we can actually do about it. This is a conversation about self-care, boundaries, and using your cycle as your secret weapon to navigate the chaos.
If you've ever felt exhausted, resentful, or burnt out during the holidays, this episode will help you understand why—and give you permission to do things differently.
In this episode we explore:
The personal story of how I rescheduled Thanksgiving to honor my cycle (and why my family was actually relieved)
Why the holiday season is disproportionately stressful for women
What's happening hormonally when you're in your luteal or menstrual phase during the holidays
Why pushing through creates burnout and resentment
5 practical self-care tips to protect your energy during holiday gatherings
How to have the conversation with your partner about needing support
Why planning your recovery is just as important as surviving the event
