Listen "Day in the Cyclical Life: Menstrual vs Follicular"

Episode Synopsis

Being cyclical is like riding a roller coaster - really high highs, and low lows, every. single. month.
It can be difficult and disorienting to navigate these shifts, especially as we do our best to exist in a linear world with little space for different ways of being.
In this episode, I discuss:
-How it is SUCH a stark difference between our 'full' and 'new' moon cycle halves
-How challenging it can be to be expected to show up the same way from week to week as a cyclical being
-Comparison of the same routine on a different day in my Menstrual phase vs. my Follicular phase, and the way it shifted my emotions and behaviors.
-Where to start with finding acceptance of our cyclical selves, talking to those we trust and sharing our experiences.
-Hope, because things are changing in the world, and we are in the process of reimagining work-life balance.
-Pointing out that what we really want is acceptance for who we are, for our different ways of being. Appealing to those who aren't cyclical to bring in awareness of this reality.
