Wrapping up the final episode of season two a little early the same way I began my entire business, social media platforms, and podcast…for the girls. Now more than ever it is so important for us women to gain an understanding of our reproductive health and learn to water the seeds we see on social media.My hope is this podcast and my platforms being a space where you can gather seeds and be encouraged to water them. This space will always be a space for women to feel informed, loved, seen, heard, and most importantly…safe. Here are resources you can use to get informed:My favorite book for female reproductive health: Hormone Intelligence by Aviva Romm, M.D. My favorite website for general research and information: The Cleveland ClinicInformation about tracking your cycle naturally with Natural Cycles: https://www.naturalcycles.com/Resource for the birth control options from the episode:https://my.clevelandclinic.org/health/articles/11427-birth-control-optionsMy fitness app:https://my.playbookapp.io/sophia-panellaAdd your stories you want shared on Bestie Tales here: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdSn6Ve05j7j3iDR195rX7Abu27Mn3LpO12Q9ahAGEuWLITcQ/viewform?usp=pp_urlCoaching Course:https://level-up-u.teachable.com/p/online-fitness-coaching-courseGina's Personal Training: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSeDavd0_tNloyNOLPCTY3lqeRU0WYvBEWKfhffmtDKu7jRt4Q/viewform?usp=pp_urlLexi's Hormone Health Coaching: https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdAOV4ANiQiEIBg9DzvRxxXojasbYDEKtJPVC2Gw2ak4PrzaA/viewform?usp=pp_url
