In this episode I chat to Jema Lee who is a Gold Coast based menstrual cycle expert, qualified Ayurvedic coach and the creator of Wellsome. For 13 years, she's helped guide women in over 22 countries to embrace their monthly cycles and deepen body awareness through personalised coaching, online courses, retreats & workshops. She's known as the down-to-earth, raw and authentic teacher who makes 'periods fun!'

Jema is a day time mermaid, a full time human who spends her days coaching, dancing and creating.

I know you'll love this episode just as much as I do and I can't wait for you to join me!

Here's what you'll learn in this episode:

• The health challenges that led Jema to become a menstrual cycle coach

• Jema's journey with PCOS, why she chose to refute the diagnosis and how she healed herself holistically, to the shock of her doctors.

• Why Jema decided to come off the hormonal contraceptive pill after 12 years on it

• The mind blowing statistics around how many chemicals babies are born exposed to.

• How to begin menstrual cycle tracking for fertility and for general women's health

• How menstrual cycle tracking boosts your sex life & the method that Jema suggests we use.

• The ways we can schedule our life in accordance with our menstrual cycle.

• Why we should chill on the intense exercise front when we're bleeding.

• How women are experiencing more imbalance between masculine and femimine energies and how to restore the balance.

• Why less training improved the way Jema's body looked, and her relationship with her body image.

• The lack of education in schools around menstrual cycles.

• Jema's menstrual product method of choice
