You’re Not Crazy - It’s Just Your Cycle: Hormones, Birth Control, and Being a Woman in a 24-Hour World
EP 75: Do you feel like a different woman every week? One day you're crushing it, and the next you're crying because of a stranger on Instagram.
You're not dramatic — you're hormonal (in the best, most science-backed way).
In this episode, we’re breaking down what’s really going on with your cycle and why living like a man in a 24-hour world just doesn’t work for a woman with a 28-day rhythm.
We are diving into:
The hormonal differences between men and women - and why it’s time to stop pretending we are the same
Why the modern medicine is built on men
Understanding each phase of your menstrual cycle
How to optimize your moods, focus, and energy throughout the month
The best workouts for each phase
Why irregular periods happen (and what to do)
How birth control masks your hormones
Whether you're struggling with symptoms, sick of feeling “off,” or just want to work with your body instead of against it, this episode will help you understand your cycle.
