I work with menstruators to optimise their cycle for better periods, fertility and overall health and wellbeing. My goal is to create a safe space for healing and I am a HAES and trauma informed practitioner. I try my best to be an LGBTQI+ ally, and am always learning more in this area.

The Periodical Pod is homebase for all things menstrual cycle related. This podcast is for you whether you’re optimising your cycle for fertility, contraception or you’re hungry for the sex-ed you should have been given in high school.

Optimise your menstrual cycle
I believe a healthy menstrual cycle sets us up for the greatest success in every area of our lives. From living with less pain, feeling more energised and leaning into a sense of flow, when we optimise our menstrual cycle, we’re optimising our lives. The menstrual cycle is considered a fifth vital signs for menstruating people, meaning a healthy cycle is vital to your overall health.
