We have our very first guest on the pod - besties, meet my older sister Francesca! I am so excited for you all to get to know another part of me. We talk about quite literally everything in today's episode - mental health, boys, feeling lost in your twenties, careers - and I am so pumped for you to hear a very realistic and relatable point of view from my sister. Warning: there are some tears shed in this episode because we get DEEP!

Okay now LADIES... I am going to take a deep dive into how I track my cycle using Natural Cycles. Tracking can sound complicated and intimidating, but I am here to help ease any angst you have about it. I will let you in on how to track your cycle using your Basal Body Temperature (BBT), cervical mucus, and how the heck to test for ovulation. Although I don’t know everything and am still learning so many new things, I hope this helps you in any way!



PSA: There are many ways you can go about tracking your cycle and many different apps to use. I am just sharing the ways I go about tracking my cycle. I also am not a doctor or certified in anything we are talking about today - this is all based off of my own personal experience and research/education.

This podcast episode is NOT sponsored by Natural Cycles nor am I paid to talk about anything in regard to NC in this episode. Here is my code below for anyone wanting to take a look into Natural Cycles:

I just got back from a brand trip and I don't know about you, but I am always so curious about what really happens on a brand trip. Are the influencers the same in real life as they portray online? Is it really as glamorous as it looks on social media? I dish out some tea on how influencers make money and my experience with my first brand trip two years ago.

If there's one thing I want you to get out of this episode, it is to POST THE DANG VIDEO! If you have always wanted to get into content creation and influencing, freaking do it queen. Don't let what others think hold you back from following your dreams.

We are going to take a deep dive into what goes on in our bodies during the female cycle! From what hormones are pumping throughout our bodies to our thoughts, feelings, exercise, sleep, etc., everything all works together as one system and can explain a lot of the reasonings on WHY we feel the way we do at certain times of the month. I also relate some of these things to my own cycle to help you better understand!

Please note that I am NOT and doctor or certified in anything I chat about in this episode. This is all based on my own research and learning about my own body and cycle through tracking. I have learned a lot but still have so much more to learn about women's health!

I think many of us hear the word "balance" and think of eating out/drinking/partying which is not what true and genuine balance is. Finding balance in life is so much deeper than what is portrayed on social media. In this episode, I will be giving you some examples of how I have found balance in my own life and the true meaning of balance.

Don't forget that finding balance is a constant work in progress!
