I used to dread my period and cursed myself for being a womxn. Now, I love my period and see my cycle as sacred. I see how my body goes through the four seasons just as mother earth does throughout each cycle. Men’s hormones regulate in 24 hours, while womxn’s regulate on average every 28 days. Each phase womxn move through is so needed and a superwomxn can be found in each. It’s learning to connect with our bodies and embrace our cycles.

I don’t think womxn are taught enough about their cycle or allowed to talk about it nearly enough. That’s why I love this topic getting to spread education, debunk myths, and enable acceptance for our periods.

I talk about what the cycles (seasons) are, how I track my period, birth control, herbs to help period symptoms, and my journey with my period in this episode. I hope it is healing and helpful. I love you all.
