Have you ever known you needed to rest, slow down, or stop but pushed yourself to keep going anyway? In this episode of Work With Your Cycle, I’m talking about the boundaries we set with ourselves and how they can completely change the way we work, rest, and run our businesses.
We often think of boundaries as something we set with other people, but there’s another side to boundaries that matters just as much for women in business: deciding what we will and will not continue doing to ourselves. I’m sharing how ignoring your own capacity can create a cycle of pushing, crashing, and starting over, and how setting intentional boundaries around your energy can help you break that pattern.
I’ll also walk you through how to create boundaries around your menstrual cycle, energy levels, workload, and rest. Whether you have a regular cycle, are in perimenopause, or simply notice predictable changes in your energy throughout the day or week, you can use those patterns to make better decisions about when to create, execute, delegate, pause, and rest.
What You'll Learn:
If your brain is telling you that you should be working while your body is asking you to rest, I also have a resource for you. Download my REST Method to help you calm your nervous system, honor what your body needs, and start feeling better about resting.

What if the problem isn't that you need to work harder but rather that your business needs better systems and more support?
In this episode of Work With Your Cycle, I’m joined by Tanya Hill, founder of The Administrative Choreographer, to talk about the connection between business systems, energy management, delegation, and cycle-aware productivity. Tanya helps women turn the chaos behind the scenes of their businesses into clarity so they can have more time and energy for both making money and making memories. We talk about why “work-life balance” can feel like an impossible standard, and why creating a work-life flow may be a much more realistic and sustainable goal.
Tanya and I also dive into how understanding your menstrual cycle and your daily energy patterns can influence the way you structure your business, your calendar, and even the way you delegate. We talk about the signs that something in your business needs to change, how to know when it may be time to bring on support, why your time actually belongs to you as the CEO, and one simple weekly planning habit that can help you head into your weekend with clarity instead of carrying your entire business around in your brain.
What you’ll learn:
Tanya also shares her Find Your Time freebie, which includes five simple shifts designed to help you free up time and energy in your business. Download it here: https://administrativechoreographer.myflodesk.com/find-your-focus-reclaim-your-time
About Tanya:
Running a business isn't just about revenue; it's about energy, balance, and passion. Too often, women in business burn themselves out trying to do all the things, all at once. I created The Administrative Choreographer to change that. My mission is to "choreograph" behind the scenes of your business, creating systems that turn chaos into clarity, so that everything flows together with ease.

If you’ve ever entered your follicular phase feeling energized, creative, and suddenly convinced that you have THE idea that is going to change your business… only to abandon what you were already working on, this episode is for you.
In this solo episode of Work With Your Cycle, I’m talking about what I call the follicular creativity trap: when your rising energy and abundance of new ideas become a reason to constantly change direction instead of building business momentum. Your follicular phase can be an incredible time for creativity, innovation, planning, and starting new things. But there’s a difference between using that creative energy strategically and letting every new idea pull you away from the offer, project, or strategy you’ve already committed to.
I share why I created an idea parking lot for myself, how it helps me honor my creativity without acting on every idea immediately, and the questions I use to decide whether an idea actually belongs in my business right now. I also talk about why giving an offer time to work matters, how constantly reinventing your business can keep you on a hamster wheel, and how a supportive coach or community can help you stay accountable when your brain is screaming, “But what if we tried THIS instead?”
Your ideas aren’t the problem. You just don’t have to execute all of them.
What you’ll learn:
If you’re tired of feeling like you’re always starting over in your business, this episode will help you pause, capture the idea, and keep moving forward.
And if you want a community of women who will lovingly tell you, “Put that idea in the parking lot and keep going,” come join us inside In Sync Community. You don’t have to figure all of this out by yourself.
Listen to the episode and then create your idea parking lot. Your future self will thank you.

What if your health goals didn't have to mean completely overhauling your life?
In this episode of Work With Your Cycle, I'm joined by Neha Arora, a Certified Women's Hormones Coach and Weight Loss Coach who helps women 30+ support hormonal balance, improve their energy, and lose stubborn weight through sustainable lifestyle changes. We talk about why women's health is about so much more than the number on the scale and why nutrition, gut health, sleep, stress, emotional well-being, hormones, and movement all deserve a place in the conversation.
Neha also shares her own journey into women's health, including discovering she had endometriosis while trying to start a family and later realizing how difficult it was to follow an overly complicated nutrition plan while working and raising a young child. That experience helped shape her approach today.
We also dive into cycle syncing, including how tracking your menstrual cycle can help you notice patterns in your energy, mood, focus, productivity, nutrition, and workouts. Neha shares how she approaches nutrition and movement throughout the different phases of the menstrual cycle and why understanding your body's patterns can help you make adjustments instead of constantly pushing through them.
And perhaps my favorite takeaway? Stop chasing perfection and focus on consistency. We talk about how small habits can become much more powerful when you actually make them sustainable enough to stick with.
What You'll Learn:
And if there's one thing I hope you take away from this conversation, it's this:
You don't have to wait until your body is screaming before you start listening.

One of the reasons I started my business was to create more freedom in my life. But when you own a business, it can be surprisingly difficult to actually enjoy that freedom. Even when I'm not working, I can still find myself thinking about what needs to get done, what I could improve, and what I need to tackle next week.
So in this episode of Work With Your Cycle, I'm sharing three simple things I do on Sunday to prepare for the week without spending my entire weekend thinking about my business. These aren't complicated productivity systems or another planner you need to buy. They're simple routines that help me get things out of my head, reduce unnecessary decision-making, regulate my nervous system, and create a smoother transition into the week.
I also talk about how I use cycle syncing when I plan my week, why I pick out my clothes for the entire workweek, and why accountability matters when you no longer have a boss telling you what needs to be done and when. Because building a business should give you more freedom, not recreate the same stressful environment you may have left behind.
What You'll Learn:
You don't have to overhaul your entire life. Try one small system and pay attention to what changes. Because you didn't build your business just to create another job for yourself. You built it to create a life you actually enjoy.

I am so excited for this episode because it confirmed something I've believed for a long time: our bodies and our cycles are always talking to us, we just aren't always taught how to listen. In this episode of Work With Your Cycle, I'm joined by Aly Breathe, an Embodied Mindset Coach who helps people release chronic pain, tension, and other stubborn physical symptoms. But it's not by managing them, but by dissolving the deeper story that's been keeping them in place.
Aly works with women founders and leaders navigating invisible pressure, burnout, and the kind of chronic pain that doctors, medications, and physical therapy haven't been able to touch. In this conversation, we go deep on the connection between the nervous system, unprocessed emotion, and physical symptoms like back pain, migraines, sciatica, fibromyalgia, eczema, and high blood pressure and why so many people believe they have to hit a breaking point before they're "allowed" to ask for help. Aly also opens up about her own healing journey, including how mindset work (not hormone therapy) helped regulate her cycle as a teenager, and shares simple, practical ways to start aligning your cycle with your mindset and energy right now.
What You'll Learn:
If you've ever felt like you've tried everything, the appointments, the treatments, the self-help books, and nothing has fully worked, this episode will show you there's another way to look at what your body has been carrying.
About Aly: Aly Breathe is an Embodied Mindset Coach who helps people release chronic pain, not by managing it, but by dissolving the deeper story that's been keeping it in place.
After years of working with women founders and leaders navigating invisible pressure and burnout, Aly discovered something profound: the body doesn't lie. Chronic pain is often the body's loudest signal that something beneath the surface needs to be seen.
Aly believes healing is possible in ways most people have stopped letting themselves imagine

What if cycle-syncing was supposed to help you trust yourself but instead, you’ve started using it as another reason to second-guess every decision?
In this episode of Work With Your Cycle, I’m talking about something so many women struggle with: overthinking. Especially when you’re a business owner trying to make the “right” decision about your launch, pricing, content, workload, or next move.
When we start treating cycle-syncing as a set of rigid rules—launch during this phase, rest during that phase, create during another phase—it’s easy to fall into analysis paralysis. Instead of using your menstrual cycle and energy as information, you start looking for the perfect time and the perfect answer. And spoiler alert: there is no perfect time or perfect decision. There are simply different choices with different trade-offs.
I’m walking you through how to recognize when overthinking is actually perfectionism or fear in disguise, how to check in with your body and intuition, and why giving yourself a deadline can help you finally make the decision you’ve been circling around. I also talk about why action creates momentum, why confidence comes from doing, and how making decisions gives you real data about what works for you and your business.
What You'll Learn:
Your Challenge:Think of one decision you've been overthinking in your business.
Maybe it's launching something, changing your prices, hiring someone, changing your offer, or finally doing the thing you've been thinking about for weeks, or even months.
Name the decision.
Ask yourself: What am I actually afraid of?
Then give yourself 24 hours to decide and take one small action.
If you're still stuck after those 24 hours, come back to the show notes and schedule a Consistent Month Call so we can work through what's really keeping you stuck and rework the decision around your unique situation.

In this episode of Work With Your Cycle, I’m joined by Laura England, founder of The Writer’s Harbour, a sustainable marketing agency. We’re talking about one of my favorite business questions: What if your marketing could keep working even when you’re not? Laura shares her unconventional journey from studying drama and English, to digital marketing, to spending three years working on cruise ships, and ultimately returning to entrepreneurship with a completely different perspective on how she wanted to market her business.
Laura and I dive into sustainable marketing strategies like Pinterest, LinkedIn, email marketing, evergreen content, and thought leadership, as well as why you don't have to rely on constantly creating Reels, chasing viral content, or being visible every single day to grow your business. We also talk about how these strategies can complement cycle syncing by creating marketing assets that continue working during the phases when your energy is lower.
Laura shares how she plans her marketing around her own cycle, why she tracks the days when she suddenly wants to "burn the business to the ground," and how she uses data and client feedback to remind herself that a temporary feeling doesn't necessarily mean something is wrong with her business.
What You'll Learn:
If you've ever thought, "I know I need to market my business, but I cannot keep creating content every single day," I think you're going to love this conversation. Sustainable marketing isn't about doing nothing. It's about doing work today that continues to support your business tomorrow and creating a business that can keep moving even when you need to slow down.
About Laura: After leaving her career on cruise ships, Laura is now building The Writer's Harbour, her writing agency dedicated to helping women gain confidence in writing their stories. From sustainable marketing to LinkedIn, amplifying voices outside of the algorithm is something every founder should be focusing on in 2026.

Have you ever started a launch feeling excited, motivated, and full of energy... only to hit a wall halfway through? In this episode of Work With Your Cycle, I'm unpacking why so many women entrepreneurs experience the dreaded mid-launch crash and why it doesn't mean you're bad at launching or not cut out for business. More often than not, it means your launch strategy isn't working with your body.
I'm sharing four common mistakes that leave women feeling completely depleted during launches, along with practical ways to create a more sustainable launch plan. We talk about cycle syncing your launch, batching content during your highest-energy phases, scheduling your biggest visibility moments strategically, and making sure you have the support you need when your energy naturally shifts. Whether you're planning a masterclass, promoting a new offer, or preparing for your next launch, this episode will help you protect your energy without sacrificing your results.
What You'll Learn:
If you've ever finished a launch thinking, "I never want to do that again," this episode is for you. My hope is that you'll leave with a new perspective: launches will always require energy, but they don't have to leave you completely drained. When you plan with your body instead of against it, you can finish strong AND actually enjoy doing it again.

In this episode of Work With Your Cycle, I sit down with business coach Chloé Midy to talk about what it really takes to build a profitable business that supports your life instead of consuming it. After scaling her freelance business to consistent €5k+ months, Chloé realized that success didn't mean much if it came at the expense of her well-being. Together, we explore how simplifying your offers, refining your positioning, raising your prices, and aligning your business with your personal values can create both freedom and sustainable growth.
One of my favorite themes throughout our conversation is the power of awareness. Whether we're talking about your marketing strategy, your pricing, your menstrual cycle, or your vision for your life, it all starts with paying attention. Chloé shares why trying to do more isn't always the answer, how to identify the right-fit clients, and why understanding your own seasons of business can help you grow without falling into burnout. If you've ever felt like you're building someone else's version of success, this episode will encourage you to define success for yourself and create a business that truly supports it.
What You'll Learn:
If this conversation inspired you, take a few minutes to reflect on what success genuinely looks like for you—not what social media, your industry, or someone else's business says it should be. The more you build a business around your own values, energy, and goals, the more sustainable your success will become.
About Chloé: Chloé Midy is a business coach for established freelancers stuck below consistent €5k months. After scaling her own freelance business to €5k+ months, she's now spent over 3 years as a full-time digital nomad. She helps freelancers refine their offer, positioning and pricing so they can sign premium clients on repeat and build a business that serves their life (and not the other way around).
