Did you know, a women's body follows infradian rhythm?  

Well, better late than never on me getting this episode out but this is the final episode to wrap up the physical health month that was supposed to go out in January BUT... 

Jenny Swisher is a personal trainer, nutrition specialist, and health practitioner, and we have a great discussion about women's hormones, cycle syncing, and physical health. 

I learned so much from this episode and I think it's something all women should hear and be aware of.  As Jealousy Junkies, we have enough gilt and shame to deal with and taking time to rest during your cycle is not something else to add to the mix of guilty feelings.

As women, we often hear comments like "you're all over the place" or "your so emotional" and that causes us to feel like there is something wrong with us but as my guest, Jenny Swisher explains in this episode, our hormones are fluctuating throughout the month.

The other super cool thing she explains is how syncing your cycle allows you to know when to plan those date nights, what days to pull back on your workout and what days you can show up like a beast.
