Shift Power with Period Awareness: “Period Reality” Shares How Work Can Better Support Women
Embracing the Menstrual Cycle for a Healthier Life
In this episode, we dive into the transformative insights behind Period Reality with our founder Marlou Cornelison, Silindile Khuzwayo, and Denzil Doyle . We explore how the 24-hour societal cycle doesn’t align with the reality for people with menstrual cycles, whose hormones fluctuate over an average 28-day period. This difference means a daily change in mood, energy, and productivity levels, and we discuss how tracking these shifts can empower individuals to better understand their bodies and optimize their lives.
Key highlights include:
– The **four phases** of the menstrual cycle and how they impact everything from creativity to confidence.
– The importance of **cycle tracking** as a tool to reconnect with our bodies and advocate for our health.
– How understanding our personal cycle can help in planning tasks, scheduling social events, and managing energy levels.
– Real stories from our guests about how cycle tracking revealed underlying health conditions and improved overall well-being.
– How societal change and workplace adjustments can support people who operate on a 28-day hormonal cycle instead of a 24-hour one.
Join us as we shed light on this under-researched area of women’s health and discuss the Period Reality movement’s goal of educating and advocating for policy reform by 2030 to support this hormonal cycle difference.
