You ever notice how, for like two weeks, you're on top of the world, productive, organized, crushing your to-do list, then suddenly, boom, you're questioning every life choice you've ever made? Yeah, welcome to the luteal phase.In this episode, I'm ranting about the absolute betrayal of being a woman, spilling on my big move to a new city (chaos? maybe), and getting real about decisions, progress, and the never-ending feeling of wtf am I doing? It's fun, it's unfiltered, and you might just relate a little too much.

Let's talk about something that actually matters for your health: muscle. Not just looking "toned" (because, let's be honest, that word is overused and under-explained), but truly building lean muscle—the kind that makes you feel strong, energized, and unstoppable. If you take one thing away from this, let it be this: protein is non-negotiable. I don't care how much you're lifting—if you're not getting enough protein, your body can't build muscle. Period. Most women think they're eating enough protein, but in reality? They're getting half of what they need. Imagine thinking you're filling up your gas tank, but you're actually running on fumes. That's what happens when you skimp on protein. Here's what to do: Aim for at least 120-140g of protein daily (more if you're in menopause!). Space it out throughout the day—think protein pacing, not just one big shake at the end of the night. Lean into easy sources: eggs, chicken, fish, Greek yogurt, protein shakes, and bars. Muscle doesn't magically appear from cardio or tiny pink dumbbells. You need resistance training—something that challenges your muscles so they can rebuild stronger. If you're new to lifting, start small: Push-ups on the kitchen counter → then on your knees → then full push-ups. Bodyweight squats → then add weights → then increase reps. Dumbbell work—presses, rows, lunges—all amazing for muscle growth. Women can gain about 0.5 to 1 pound of muscle per month with consistency. It takes time, but it's 100% worth it. Hormones play a huge role in muscle growth, and your cycle impacts when you build muscle best. Follicular phase (post-period to ovulation): Your body is primed for building muscle. Push harder, lift heavier, challenge yourself. Luteal phase (post-ovulation to period): Recovery takes longer. Focus on maintaining muscle and prioritizing rest. Menopause? Your body needs more protein and heavier weights to achieve the same muscle growth as before. If you're doing everything “right” but still struggling to build muscle, check these culprits: Not eating enough → Muscle growth needs fuel, not restriction. Chronic stress → High cortisol can literally break down your muscle. Poor sleep → Recovery happens when you rest, not when you push harder. So, What Now? No more second-guessing. No more wasting time on workouts that don't work for you. You have the shortcut—protein, strength training, and syncing with your body. Want a step-by-step blueprint customized for you?

We are revisiting the business cycle and how it relates to the menstrual cycle, much like we did in ⁠Episode 13⁠ on Recessions, but we compare the phases in each cycle, side-by-side this time and break it down further.   What Is The Business Cycle? The Business Cycle is Periods of economic expansion and contraction based on the 3-Ds we discussed last time: depth (how bad is it?), diffusion (how widespread?), and duration (how long?) of a broad range of economic indicators.  The periods of expansion and contraction begin and end with what is called “turning points” as defined by the ⁠NBER⁠ (National Bureau of Economic Research). The turning points become peaks and troughs. Peaks are when the economy is slowing down. Trough is when it picks back up. Why Does It Matter? Monitoring economic data, such as GDP and unemployment, is crucial for assessing the health of the economy and making informed investment decisions. The stock market is not the economy, but it is closely related to the business cycle and the health of the consumer. Understanding the business cycle can help investors anticipate market trends and adjust their investment strategies accordingly. Hard Landing vs Soft Landing vs No Landing Soft landing is a slowdown in economic growth with a controlled reduction in inflation (think of a pilot making a slow controlled descent under the cloud cover to safely land a plane) and it's usually followed by a period of growth. Hard landing occurs when the economy contracts sharply due to the central bank's efforts to control inflation (raising interest rates too high for too long). No-landing occurs when the economy continues to grow despite a series of contractions in monetary policies.    "The business cycle, it's like the menstrual cycle, more than just a period."     In this analogy: The Uterus is the Economy The Business Cycle is the Menstrual Cycle  The Stock Market is NOT the economy, it's a bunch of companies. So in this example, it could be companies selling pads, tampons, birth control, etc. [Disclosure: we're not medical doctors or scientists, so just go with our analogy for funsies.]      The Business Cycle Compared to the Menstrual Cycle The business cycle is economic phases of expansion and contraction, similar to the Follicular and Luteal phases of the menstrual cycle, with peak and trough turning points, similar to Ovulation and Menstruation. We also discuss the importance of monitoring economic data, such as GDP and unemployment, to assess the health of the economy and make informed investment decisions. New data will be coming out the day this episode is released. ⁠⁠Subscribe to Our Newsletter⁠ ⁠ to stay informed! Related Links: ⁠Ep 13.

Many people with endometriosis, including about 60% of my clients, suffer with constipation. Is this because of endometriosis directly? Not exactly. There are several reasons someone with endo can have constipation, whilst this episode isn't about that, here's a quick low down on some of the key causes:  Endo – Of course, whilst this isn't the case for everyone, endo can be located on the bowel, which can cause structural changes to the bowel, making bowel movements harder. Adhesions – Adhesions from either endo itself or from surgery can attach to the intestines and cause kinks and loops which make it harder for stools to pass through the bowels. P.S. Adhesions from abdominal surgery occur in between 50-100% of patients, and if the abdominal surgery is more significant, the risk is much higher. SIBO – Small intestine bacterial overgrowth, where bacteria overgrow in the small intestine, is a key culprit of constipation, especially in people who have methanogen overgrowth. There are three types of SIBO; hydrogen, methane and hydrogen sulphide. Methane is no longer technically a type of SIBO, it has a new name, methanogen overgrowth, because it occurs not just in the small intestine and in the large too. But the testing and treatment remains the same, so honestly, it's really just a new name and a new way of thinking of it, but we would still informally call it methane type SIBO. Research indicates that people with endo have a higher prevalence of SIBO. Gut dysbiosis – gut dysbiosis is where we have an imbalance of gut bugs in our large intestine, and this can lead to IBS-like symptoms such as constipation. Research is showing an increasing link between endometriosis and microbiome changes. Luteal phase – in the second half of your cycle, after ovulation, known as the luteal phase, our progesterone levels rise (in theory, some people need to boost their progesterone, but that's a conversation for another time). Progesterone is a muscle relaxant, and as a result, it relaxes the muscles of the intestines and slows down motility. This might mean, for the average person, bowel movements are a bit slower, but that they don't have full on constipation. However, if you suffer with any of the above, this hormonal change can trigger or worsen constipation. Read more.

Follicular, Ovulatory, Luteal, Menstrual. Inner spring, Inner summer, Inner Autumn, Inner Winter.Waxing Moon, Full Moon, Waning Moon, New Moon.The cycles of nature are tangible in ourselves, and especially for those of us with wombs while we're in our cycling years, we have the option to align ourselves with the phase of our cycle we'e in at any given moment. For instance, I'm currently in early Autumn. I just ovulated a few days ago, my temperature rose, my cervical mucus changed, and I can feel a subtle difference in my energy levels, and honestly I also feel a little warmer (well maybe that's bc I'm wearing too many layers, lol, but basal body temp DOES rise post-ovulation).What phase of your cycle are you in right now??Whatever phase you're in has certain qualities and characteristics, and it's important to learn your own rather than just rely on books or social media, because sometimes we don't fit the prescribed mold. However, there are general qualities that hold true for most folks... so it's helpful to learn those and then reflect on your own. Today's podcast guest, longtime yoga teacher and cyclical living mentor Rebecca Rankin, shares all about not only her life-changing experience with cyclical living but also how we can bring yoga postures and breathwork into the fold.She shares a couple poses and breathwork options that suit each phase. I especially love how she includes a rolled towel to encourage ovarian circulation in the follicular phase in one pose and then that same rolled towel in a different location to encourage uterine circulation in the late luteal phase. It's really neat to consider the ways we can more intentionally bring our cycle into our yoga and vice versa.If this intrigues you, I think you'll dig today's episode.Listen to learn:how becoming a mother catalyzed Rebecca's cyclical living  journeywhat cyclical living is and a couple ways it's changed her business + lifeways that natural cycles mirror and inform embodied cyclical livinghow even when you're no longer cycling, you can still attune to cyclessome yoga postures + breathwork for each phase of the menstrual cyclea guided "Apana" breathwork practice helpful in menstrual phase + whenever you need some extra tethering to the earthResources:Today's shownotes: Get Rebecca's links to her journal, website, social mediaStart tracking your cycle with Fertility Awareness Method (free guide)Episode 42: Reclaim your menstruationEpisode 69: Cyclical archetypes w Em DeweyEpisode 73: Cyclical movement w Tara Lynn SteeleEpisode 78: Your cycle superpowersIf you loved this episode, share it with a friend, or take a screenshot and share on social media and tag me @herbalwombwisdom.  And if you love this podcast, leave a rating & write a review!

Another episode full of lukewarm takes, cyclical insights, and "that's so funny" reactions, this week Jess and Caroline show up with nothing to give but complaints and bad jokes. First, Jess is no impressionist - and also apparently no standup - as she *corporate gulps* her way through a series of failed jokes that forced her to quit her comedy class. Meanwhile, Caroline be lutin' (scientific term for in the luteal phase of her menstrual cycle), leaving little room for laughter but a lot of room for spiraling about therapy. This deadly combo concludes with the reveal of an upcoming surprise, an analysis of gifts as a love language, and a referral to a new form of therapy that both of our hosts desperately need. __ This episode was produced by your lover, Jess DeBakey. __ Share with a friend!

Ladies, welcome to our unfiltered experience of our infamous hormonal cycle. In this episode we navigate and describe what to expect across the four stages: Menstruation, Follicular, Ovulation and Luteal. And how each phase directly affects our mental health, mood, and how we perceive ourselves and the world around us. We also share insights into hormonal contraception and compare our experience of women hood, on and off synthetic hormone replacement. Please note, we are not medical professionals and do not offer any medical advice. But instead hope to be a warm comforting voice, that can help you identify tools and tricks to tackle your cycle with more ease and less attitude ;) Sending love, always.  Episode Mentions:  Lucy Peach, Period Queen:  https://www.lucypeach.com/period-queen https://www.lucypeach.com/courses Her Podcast:  https://open.spotify.com/show/7Eyoxu6iYHadewoU7KI9S5 https://podcasts.apple.com/au/podcast/period-queen/id1513299518 Reach out and connect with us on social media: https://instagram.com/unfilteredexperience_podcast?igshid=OGQ5ZDc2ODk2ZA== http://www.tiktok.com/@unfilteredexperience Or email us at: theunfilteredexperience@outlook.com

This week on the podcast I share about using cycle syncing in conjunction with FAM charting. I love how Clarissa Pinkola Estes describes the ebbs and flows that women experience within their bodies as cyclical beings. '…the feminine blossoming energy that belongs to us and that comes to us in cycles, ebbing and returning to us on a regular basis as psychic spring follows psychic winter. Without the renewal of this flowering impulse in our lives, hope is covered over, and the earth of our minds and hearts remains in an unmoving state.' – CPE Cycle syncing involves tracking the shifts and changes in the cycle as they relate to the changes women experience in their mood and energy levels. Checking in with these rhythms allows us the opportunity to check in with what are sweet bodies are asking us for. I am sharing about the archetypal cycle and this may of may not align with the way in which YOU feel during the different phases of your own cycle. Many women do align with this archetypal pattern, but many others don't. The purpose of cycle syncing is to observe what's showing up for YOU and showing up for yourself accordingly. The 5 phases of the menstrual cycle - Bleeding phase - Winter's cozy energy that calls us to move inward and check in with ourselves in a deeper way. Follicular phase - Spring time energy of improved creativity and tendency to engage in new projects and have lots of new, fresh ideas. Ovulatory phase - Summer time outward expression, increase in social energy, libido increase, expansive nature. Luteal phase week 1 - Subtle decline in energy, inward direction and a tying up of loose ends. Luteal phase week 2 - Desiring more alone time, preparing for the next bleeding phase with cooking, cleaning and organizing, a nesting type of energy. When we have this as our background, it can allow us the permission to care for ourselves in ways that are most supportive of our health. There are certainly times in life that it's not possible to live according to your cyclical rhythm and I cover some considerations on that in this episode as well.

Do you have days where you are super optimistic and hopeful, feel confident and walk with an extra little pep in your step, and then the next 2 weeks you wonder where she went? Why can't you access that incredible magnetic super charged version of yourself? This is was a lifelong challenge and it's a huge factor in not only how you show up in your work, in your relationships, and your creativity/passion projects - it's also done a number on your confidence long term. This is another layer of women's health being ignored for the sake of "ease" for the society built to serve the male biology, and it's wreaking havoc on everything. You deserve kindness and compassion no matter what day or phase you're in, but it's especially crucial to shift your expectations and activities in the Luteal phase. I share a few shifts I've made to create a different experience for me, and all the things I do and the people I love. And if you like productive homework, I give you some at the 6 minute mark. You can catch the episode here I reference when I interviewed Jac, the Menstrual Mogul, about syncing your cycle.

We're digging into why thryoid health matters for low AMH/high FSH. Our Fab Fertile Method includes a deep dive into your health utilizing cutting-edge functional tests and addressing biochemical and mental-emotional stressors. A theme we see with primary ovarian insufficiency, diminished ovarian reserve, low AMH, and high FSH is thyroid dysfunction. And looking at the TSH is NOT the answer. I know you may have been told that our thyroid is normal, but something is being missed. Thyroid dysfunction can result in: · Anovulatory cycles · Menstrual irregularities or heavy bleeding · Low libido · Luteal phase defects · High prolactin · Sex hormone imbalances · Reduced DHEA, which may cause hormone imbalances and low sex hormone levels · Failure to sustain a fertilized egg · Low antral follicle count (AFC) · Low anti-Müllerian hormone (AMH), a measure of ovarian reserve · High follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) · Early pregnancy loss (

Have you ever heard about Cycle Syncing?    Cycle syncing is matching how you exercise with the stages of your menstrual cycle to optimize results and to be kind to your body. And this is a hot topic amongst women right now and for a good reason.    Due to the fluctuations of different hormones, our bodies actually require different things depending on where we are in our cycle. That's why in this episode of Embrace Your Real, we are going to outline how to sync your workouts with your monthly cycle for better results!     What I discuss: Menstrual and Luteal phase  Follicular and Ovulation Phase   If you want more from me, be sure to check out...   Instagram: @embraceyourreal | @movementwithjulie Movement With Julie | App: https://sale.movementwithjulie.com/ Macro Counting Made Simple: https://www.macrocountingmadesimple.com/ Website: www.juliealedbetter.com Free e-book: www.juliealedbetter.com/free-ebook Amazon Storefront: https://www.amazon.com/shop/influencer-6bda1ca8?ref=cm_sw_em_r_inf_pub_influencer-6bda1ca8_dp_DgsIam9salgfi

In part 3 of this 4 part series, Isabelle Wellman and Briana Martinez explore what it means to embody the feminine archetype of the Wild Woman Enchantress. This Archetype resembles the "third phase" of the menstrual cycle, the Luteal phase, or the Waxing Moon phase within the Moon Cycle. Whether you are female, male, or do not identify, you will finish this conversation with the lesson of learning how to "trust fall with the universe". The ability to fully trust ourselves, what we need, and how to honor what we need can feel scary or unrealistic with the hustle-culture most of us experience. Yet, when you can keep your arms wide open to possibility and operating from YOUR needs, the world begins to reward you. What would happen if for a day you decided to not force yourself to operate against your bodies feelings? I invite you into this conversation to learn more about this way of being, afterall.. we are human BE-ings, not human do-ings!
