"Every day I hear more stories of hormone disorders, hormone imbalances and people exhausted by the ups and downs of every month. I’m here to tell you that it does not have to be that way. You can take back the power when you believe in yourself, invest the time and commit to the journey. Through proper cycle education, improving body literacy, working with our cycles instead of against them, and treating the root causes of the problems through nutrition, movement and mindset, symptoms can be relieved and quality of life restored".
