Description
Nicole Bendayan is a Certified Holistic Nutritionist and menstrual health educator. In this episode, she explains what a woman’s natural menstrual cycle is supposed to be like. While hormonal birth control has empowered women to control their fertility, it has done so at the expense of the natural menstrual cycle. Most women do not understand that there are 4 distinct phases in a menstrual cycle. By leveraging your body’s natural phases, you can actually predict and prepare for the hormonal fluctuations instead of fighting them. Nicole is passionate about empowering women through education because it is life changing when you live in tune with your menstrual cycle.
