In this follow-up episode of The Hippie Martha Hormone Hour, Ashley sits down again with Kenzie Jo from @kenziejofitness for a deeper conversation about nutrition, blood sugar, and understanding the female cycle.

This episode moves beyond fitness culture and into the everyday foundations of hormone health — how we fuel our bodies, regulate blood sugar, and build a relationship with food that supports ovulation and overall wellbeing.

In This Episode We Discuss

  • Why protein and fiber are foundational for hormone health

  • Blood sugar regulation and its impact on ovulation and PMS

  • Food fear, diet culture, disordered eating, and nervous system stress

  • Viewing food as nutrients and information for the body

  • Birth control vs. a true ovulatory cycle

  • Why ovulation is a vital sign for overall health

  • Sympto-thermal vs. sympto-hormonal fertility awareness methods

  • A deeper look at the phases of the female cycle

    If you’re ready to understand your cycle, reconnect with your body, start moving more, or learn fertility awareness in a sustainable way, private consults and charting support is available.
