I've been digesting a season of death, endings, and composting — both in the natural world and within my own life.

In this episode, I share what’s been unraveling for me lately, and how I’m learning to trust the quiet wisdom of the void.

This is a prayer for the fertile dark, and for all that is yet to bloom.

Did you know your brain changes when you bleed—opening a doorway to deeper intuition, clarity, and instinctual wisdom?

Our ancestors knew this, honouring the altered state of menstruation as sacred. Now, science is finally catching up, revealing how the menstrual phase transforms brain function and heightens our connection to unseen realms.

Yet, in a world that dismisses the intelligence of the feminine body, this ancient knowing has been forgotten. In this episode, we explore the fascinating interplay between your cycle and your mind, and how to reclaim the power of your bleeding time.

✨In this episode, we explore:

• How your brain shifts throughout the menstrual cycle
• Why menstruation is a time of heightened intuition, insight, and clarity
• How science is proving what our ancestors knew—that menstruating women enter an altered, more receptive state
• The ways patriarchal conditioning has severed women from their cyclical intelligence
• Practices to harness the wisdom of your bleeding time

The luteal phase—our inner autumn—is often described as the time when emotions rise, demanding to be felt. But what does it actually look like to move through this in real time?

This week, I find myself deep in my inner autumn, navigating the raw edges of grief, discomfort, and challenge—right alongside an event I’ve been dreading for months.

In this episode, I’m opening up about my personal experience of feeling it all, allowing what’s surfacing to be processed and healed, and how cycle awareness is guiding me through it.

I’ll be sharing:
🌿 How my luteal phase is aligning to bring grief & emotions to the surface
🌙 The energetics of this phase and why it invites us into deep work
💫 Practical ways I’ve been supporting myself—physically, emotionally & spiritually

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by the intensity of your luteal phase, or wondered how to truly work with your cycle in difficult moments, this episode is for you.
