We’ll break down how our culture teaches women to tolerate discomfort, dismiss their needs, and carry emotional labor that no one sees. But staying in the familiar can come at a steep cost: your health, your joy, and your sense of self.If you've been saying “I'm fine” while secretly unraveling, this episode is for you. Let’s talk about what it really means to choose healing over hustle—and how to start coming back home to yourself.What’s coming up for you in this episode? I’d love to hear.

Let’s get real — in this episode, I sit down with period expert Vicky Chehade to unpack everything you didn't know you needed to know about your cycle. From cramping to contraception, natural birth control to perimenopause, we’re calling out the confusion, the shame, and the flat-out BS women have been handed for way too long. We’re diving deep into the science of your symptoms — how to actually understand what your body is telling you throughout your cycle, what to really know about fertility and natural birth control options, and how exercise and stress can impact your hormones, especially during perimenopause. If you've ever felt dismissed or overwhelmed trying to “fix” your period issues, this episode will feel like finally being handed the manual we never got. Thank you Vicky for your expertise and insight!
