In this episode, I chat with Darion Murdock, BJJ purple belt, about all things cycle syncing. She shares her story and how adjusting her training around the phases of her cycle have helped improve both her health and performance on the mats. 


About Darion:

Based in Colorado, Darion is a healthcare professional turned tech nerd with a passion for women's healthy lifestyle. She's currently a purple belt in BJJ and has been an athlete her whole life. She loves to work with women who are driven to perform well. After a terrible experience with hormonal birth control, she dove deep into women's health to better understand herself and is now helping other women work in harmony with their cycles instead of fighting against it. She enjoys spending time in nature, doing puzzles, training, and coaching women toward developing greater health, strength, and happiness.
