Explicit content warning
02/15/22 • 65 min
Oh my goodness – I am a little lost for words for this podcast episode. I had the pleasure of interviewing the beautiful Ash McDonald on the topic of Cycle Syncing for Success. And not just business or career success, think about every area of your life (productivity, sex, nutrition, exercise, relationships, etc). As women, our menstrual cycles can positively or negatively affect every area of our life depending on our understanding of them and our relationship with them. Today, Ash is telling us how to utilize our cycles as a tool to experience more of what we want in life.
Even if you don’t have an active cycle due to birth control or you’re post-menopause, Ash tells you how you can still utilize this.
IN THIS EPISODE, WE CHAT ABOUT:
- What Cycle Syncing Is + How To Utilize It
- How To Use Your Menstrual Cycle As Your Superpower Instead Of Something You Have To “Dread” or “Overcome”
- How To Optimize Your Relationship + Sex Life (And Even Period Sex)
- Ash’s Beautiful Mission For All The Women In The World
If you feel like you have a hate/hate relationship with your cycle or feel like you’re always having to overcome where you’re at in your cycle, this episode is for you!
