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...

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...

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...

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.

How I Sold Out My Retreat After Almost Canceling It show art 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...

You don’t have a time problem. You have a focus problem. And I say that with so much love… because I’ve been there too. Trying to do everything in your business, posting, tweaking, redesigning, overthinking while secretly wondering why it’s not growing the way you thought it would. Especially when you’re juggling life, work, kids… and building your business in the in-between moments. This episode is your reset. Because if you only did two things consistently in your business… everything would change. Episode Summary In this episode, we’re breaking down the two core business...

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...

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...

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...

Recording 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...

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 conversation on cognitive diversity in decision-making, why leaders need to design better decision rooms, and how the right mix of people can help you make smarter, more aligned choices.

And no, this is not about having more meetings. 

It’s about making better ones.

Episode Summary

In this episode, Kylee Ingram shares how cognitive diversity, decision science, and intentional team design can help leaders make better business decisions. We talk about why group decision-making can either create better outcomes or amplify bias, depending on who is in the room and how the decision is made.

What You’ll Hear in This Episode

✔️ Why smart leaders still make decisions with major blind spots

✔️ The real reason the loudest voice in the room often wins

✔️ How cognitive diversity helps teams make better decisions

✔️ Why disagreement can be productive instead of personal

✔️ The three decision-making biases that quietly shape outcomes

✔️ Why women are often left out of the room, and why that hurts everyone

✔️How small business owners can use decision profiles to hire and collaborate better

✔️ Why “messy action” people need process-driven people, and vice versa

✔️ How to stop seeing “difficult people” as the problem and start understanding how they make decisions

✔️ Why better decision-making starts with asking: who’s missing?

Key Takeaways

➡️ Better decisions are designed, not guessed

➡️ Cognitive diversity is not a nice bonus. It is a business advantage.

➡️ Disagreement is not the enemy

➡️ Your team may be stuck because the wrong voices are missing

➡️ Self-awareness makes you a better leader

Why It Matters

If you are building a business, leading a team, hiring support, pitching a collaboration, or trying to make your next big move, decision-making matters.

Not just the decision itself.

The room around the decision.

Because the cost of staying stuck is not just wasted time. It is missed opportunities. It is repeating the same leadership patterns. It is building a business that depends on you carrying everything alone.

Your future self does not need you to become the smartest person in every room.

She needs you to build better rooms.

Rooms with the right people.

The right questions.
The right perspectives.
The right process.

That is how you create more ease, more clarity, and more aligned growth without making yourself the bottleneck.

This Episode Is For You If…

👉 You are tired of being the only one making every decision

👉You lead a small team and want to hire smarter

👉 You struggle with “difficult people” and want a better way to understand them

👉 You know your business needs structure, but too much process makes your soul leave your body

👉 You want to make better business decisions without overthinking everything

👉 You are pitching, collaborating, or trying to get buy-in from people who think differently than you

👉 You want to understand your leadership blind spots

👉 You are ready to stop carrying the whole room on your back

Listen to the full episode to learn how cognitive diversity can help you make better business decisions, build stronger teams, and stop letting hidden bias run the show.
