What if your missing period wasn’t just a fluke… but a sign your body was begging for rest?
In this powerful episode of Stress-Free SOULutions, Sarah Alysse sits down with Dani Sheriff, certified fertility awareness practitioner and founder of the HA Society, to unpack the misunderstood condition of hypothalamic amenorrhea (HA)—and how women can reclaim their cycles and restore hormonal balance naturally.
Dani shares her deeply personal journey from period loss and diet culture burnout to full hormonal recovery, motherhood, and coaching thousands of women around the world. Together, they explore how rest, nourishment, and nervous system regulation are the true medicine—especially for high-achieving women used to pushing through pain.
This episode is a blend of science, self-compassion, and soul—a must-listen for anyone navigating fertility challenges, hormonal imbalances, or a disconnection from their body.

What causes hypothalamic amenorrhea and how to recognize the signs
How to begin healing through food freedom, exercise moderation, and nervous system care
Why period health is a vital sign, not just a fertility metric
