𝐋𝐞𝐬𝐥𝐢𝐞 𝐃𝐫𝐚𝐟𝐟𝐢𝐧 (@lesliedraffin) walked away from her career as a news anchor at the height of the pandemic. Between unbearable stress levels and unequal treatment (compared to her male counterparts), she’d reached her limit.

She now thrives as a menstrual cycle coach and feminine embodiment mentor to clients across the globe. 

Join us for this week’s episode of Female Founder Friday to learn how Leslie empowers menstruators to better understand their hormones, and use their cycle to boost productivity, happiness and inner peace. Leslie offers incredible advice for demolishing the “good girl” archetype and finding confidence in living life at your own pace.
