Moon Phases & Feminine Power - Your Weekly Cycle Sync: What’s Really Going On Before Your Period | Hormones, Trauma, and the Waning Moon
This week we honour the depth of the 🌓 waning moon and its mirror in our bodies — the premenstrual phase, also known as “inner autumn”. As the light of the moon decreases and energy begins to recede, our bodies move into a phase of release, introspection, and recalibration. During Scorpio season — as we focus on the powerful and transforming reproductive energy — I guide you through the science, the somatic truth, and the gentle practices that support you during this phase. You’ll learn: 🥀 W...

If you’ve ever felt confused by your energy, emotions, or productivity throughout the month, this episode is for you. This week, we’re syncing with the energy of the Full Moon and exploring one of the most powerful — and misunderstood — phases of the menstrual cycle: ovulation, also known as your Inner Summer.

Moon Phases & Feminine Power - Your Weekly Cycle Sync: How to Be Still with the Dark Moon
This week, we’re attuning to the energy of the Dark Moon — that mysterious, tender space just before the New Moonbegins. It’s the moment of total stillness. No light from the moon. No outward movement. Just quiet. And yet, this pause is sacred. It’s the fertile soil from which your next chapter will grow. If you’re someone who’s been doing the work — showing up for therapy, journaling, caring for others, trying to keep everything together — but still feel tired, anxious, or disconnected, this...

Moon Phases & Feminine Power - Your Weekly Cycle Sync: How to Let Go of Control with the Last Quarter Moon
As we move through the waning moon and into the last quarter, the invitation is simple but profound: let go. Not to give up—but to release pressure, over-efforting, and control, and to let the Universe (and your body) take the wheel for a little while. If you’ve been journaling, healing, showing up for therapy, raising your kids, or doing all the “right” things—but still feel tired, tense, or stuck—this episode is for you. Because even in our healing, we can start to overwork ourselves. We ke...

Moon Phases & Feminine Power: Your Weekly Cycle Sync | 🌗 First Quarter Moon: Clarity Comes From Action
The First Quarter Moon is here—a brief but powerful moment when the moon is perfectly split, half in shadow and half illuminated. This phase is an invitation to choose and then to act. So many women on their healing journeys get stuck at this very point. Instead of taking the step they already know they need to take, they overthink, search for the perfect solution, or wait for clarity to arrive. But the truth is this: clarity doesn’t come from thinking—it comes from action. In this episode, w...

Moon Phases & Feminine Power: Your Weekly Cycle Sync - You Can't Have the Full Moon Without the Waning Moon
This week we’re attuning to the waning moon. The waning phase invites us to slow down, catch our breath, and prepare for the cycle ahead. It’s a time for gratitude, rest, refinement, and discernment—a season of letting go so we can create space for what’s next. In this episode, I share how the waning moon mirrors the second half of the menstrual cycle and why this phase is just as important as the full moon.

Moon Phases & Feminine Power: Your Weekly Cycle Sync – The Missing Piece in the Full Moon Phase
This week, we’re still swimming in the energy of a potent full moon eclipse. 🌑✨ While eclipses often bring sudden shifts and course corrections, this episode explores a lesser-talked-about aspect of the healing journey: celebration. So often we approach the full moon through the lens of “letting go.” While release is important, constantly focusing on what’s wrong can actually dysregulate the nervous system and keep us stuck in the trauma vortex. True healing, repair, and growth happen when we...
