Can You Still Cycle Sync in Perimenopause?
The Cycle Advantage
What happens when the thing you've been using to guide your business suddenly becomes unpredictable? Or maybe you’re like a lot of women and only now learning about cycle syncing once you’ve already entered into perimenopause. It's one of the most common questions I get from women entering perimenopause: "Can I even cycle sync anymore?" It's a fair question. Because when people talk about cycle syncing, it often sounds like all you need is a Pinterest graphic, four neat phases, and a perfectly predictable cycle. But what if that was never the point? What if cycle syncing was never about...

3 Steps to Start Cycle Syncing Without Changing Everything
The Cycle Advantage
You've heard about cycle syncing. Maybe you're a little bit intrigued. Maybe you're even become a tad bit obsessed. But every time you try to figure out where to actually begin, you end up with seventeen browser tabs open and absolutely zero idea what to do first. I see you and honestly, cycle syncing can be SOOO simple. It’s just that us high achievers want to way over complicate it all. Because the number one question I get asked, more than anything else is this: how do I actually get started? The actual, real life, what-do-I-do-on-Monday version of cycle syncing. And that's exactly...

This Triggered Me… But It Might Set So Many Women Free
The Cycle Advantage
The most dangerous lie being sold to women right now isn't coming from men. It's coming from other women. Someone slid into my comments this week and told me that what I teach, helping women use their menstrual cycles to become more effective, more aligned, and more successful is a patriarchal construct. I was just after a coaching call with a client where we dove into this very thing…people judging and criticizing when we speak up our truths. And then I got in my car and hit record because this one needed a response. For every woman who has quietly wondered if wanting wealth...

Are You Making Decisions With the Wrong People in the Room? with Kylee Ingram
The Cycle Advantage
What if your next bad business decision has nothing to do with your intelligence, your intuition, or your strategy? This episode is one of those “oh wow, I may have been accidentally making life harder” conversations. Because so often, we think strong leadership means carrying the decision alone. Being the one with the answer. Knowing the next move. Holding the whole vision in your brain like some kind of high-functioning human spreadsheet. Except… that might be the exact thing creating blind spots. In this episode, I’m joined by Kylee Ingram, co-founder of Wizer, for a...

How I Sold Out My Retreat After Almost Canceling It
The Cycle Advantage
Three months before my retreat, I had zero people signed up. Zero. As in, “Should I cancel this whole thing and pretend I never mentioned it?” zero. And if you’ve ever launched something, promoted something, or put an offer into the world and heard crickets, you know exactly what that can bring up. The scarcity spiral. The overthinking. The very dramatic mental montage of, “Maybe I should just burn it all down and become a florist.” But this retreat ended up selling out in the most beautiful way. And not only did it sell out, it became one of the most powerful, expansive, deeply...

The Belief That Will Help You Attract More Wealth
The Cycle Advantage
I want you to have an insane amount of money in your pocket. And I really do mean that. And I know that might feel like a weird thing to lead with. But the more I do this work, the more I see it… women are capping their own wealth before they ever give themselves a chance to create it. Not because they're not smart enough, not because they're not working hard enough, but because of one sneaky little habit that most of us don't even realize we're doing. This episode is that aha and I think it's going to change how you think about money, time, clients, and every area of your life...

This One Shift Will Change the Trajectory of Your Business
The Cycle Advantage
If you've ever caught yourself spiraling in that luteal phase, questioning everything you're building, wondering if you're actually cut out for this, this one's for you. I just got off a hot yoga class, dripping with sweat, sitting in my car, and I could not stop talking. Because something came up inside our Your Cycle Advantage call today that I needed to bring here and expand on. A small idea that turned into a full-on passionate rampage (my favorite kind). This isn't about fixing your limiting beliefs. It's not about doing more healing work before you're "ready." This is about...

Why I Stopped Cycle Syncing (And What I Do Instead)
The Cycle Advantage
Okay… this may seem kind of crazy coming from the cycle syncing coach but….I’ve stopped cycle syncing.. And before you spiral for a second.. no, I didn’t throw everything out the window. But I did stop using my cycle like it’s some rigid rulebook that I have to schedule everything against.. Don’t get me wrong, using your cycle to discover when you are the most aligned to get stuff done is magical (and makes a world of difference). But stopping there is where most women miss out and feel stuck when life happens or when things don’t match up with your cycle. Because your...

info_outlineRecording this one from my car. After dance class, with a dead microphone and ya know, life is life-ing right now.
It’s been a beautiful, wild, a little chaotic season and it’s teaching me so many things in the midst of the mess.
This episode is about what happens when everything starts feeling like too much and your brain starts whispering that the solution is to burn it all down and start over.
Again.
(I get it. I actually asked my husband to hold me accountable to the next time my mind started going down the “should I try this instead” rabbit holes. And he so politely called me out this last weekend cause I was doing it again).
The spiral doesn't always happen. But when it does, chances are it’s always happening at the same time of the month. Thanks luteal phase.
That phase has a way of pulling everything to the surface. The self-doubt. The "is my offer even good?" doubts. The inner critic who's suddenly got a full TED Talk prepared on why your business, your message, and possibly your entire existence need a complete overhaul. Right now. Urgently.
Menstrual cycle awareness gets talked about a lot. What doesn't get talked about nearly enough is how your nervous system patterns are quietly amplifying every single one of those thoughts.
What if it's not your offer? Your consistency? Your strategy?
What if you've been solving the wrong problem this whole time?
This episode goes into the cycle-driven thought patterns that keep women looping through the same story in business, in relationships, in their own growth and what's actually running underneath them.
If you've ever restructured your entire business mid-luteal and wondered why nothing shifted… this one's going to resonate with you.
Episode Summary
In this episode, I’m unpacking the nervous system patterns that keep women repeating the same cycles in business and life, especially during the luteal phase. We’re talking about fight, flight, freeze, default behaviors, feminine rhythm, and why your brain will always choose the most familiar path unless you consciously create a new one. If you keep burning things down, pulling away, freezing up, or starting over every month, this episode will help you understand what’s actually going on and how to shift it.
What You’ll Hear in This Episode
✔️ The decision you keep making in your business that has nothing to do with strategy
✔️ Why burning it down feels like progress but is actually keeping you exactly where you are
✔️ There's a difference between refinement and a spiral. Here's how to tell which one you're in
✔️ The moment fight, flight, or freeze took the wheel in your business and why you didn't even notice
✔️ Why motivation was never going to save you (and what actually will)
✔️ What it looks like when you stop repeating the pattern and start writing a new one
Key Takeaways
👉 Your unconscious default mode is shaping more than you think.
👉The luteal phase does not create the problem. It reveals it.
👉 Repetition wires the brain.
👉 Awareness is the beginning of change.
👉 You do not need a totally new business or offer.. You just need a new rhythm.
Why It Matters
Too many brilliant women are blaming their lack of progress on discipline… when the real issue is a patterning.
A pattern of:
👉 fighting harder
👉 shutting down
👉 disappearing
👉 doubting themselves
👉 starting over
👉 never letting momentum build
And love, that gets exhausting. This matters because your nervous system will cap the results you get if it does not feel safe in the expansion you say you want.
This episode is your invitation to stop asking, “Why do I keep doing this?”
And start asking, “What pattern is running right now?”
If this conversation resonates, you’ll also love the deeper embodiment and nervous system work we do at Awaken Your Wild Feminine Retreat. This is exactly the kind of inner shift that changes everything outside of you too.
This Episode Is For You If…
✔️ You keep reworking your offers instead of actually moving them forward
✔️You notice the same spiral hits every luteal phase
✔️ You tend to burn everything down when you feel uncertain
✔️ You disappear from your business when things feel too hard
✔️ You freeze, overthink, or stop showing up when fear kicks in
✔️ You are done repeating the same cycle and ready to create a new rhythm
“When we can tap into that rhythm and we can tap into aligning with that rhythm, things get so much easier and things move so much faster.” Renae Fieck
