E214: Do You Have These 4 Signs of a Healthy Period?

Have you ever been told your heavy bleeding, mood swings, acne, or exhaustion are just part of having a period?

But deep down, you know something’s off. And you’re right!

Many of us have been gaslit by doctors, by friends, even our own mothers, into believing that pain, fatigue, bloating, and mood swings are simply the price we pay for being a woman. But the truth is: your cycle is your body’s monthly report card. And it’s trying to tell you something.

In this episode, I’m talking about what a truly healthy period looks like, because most women were never taught. I’ll walk you through:

• What your bleeding pattern (color, flow, and length) says about your estrogen and progesterone
• Why period pain isn’t something you have to live with (even if you’ve been diagnosed with endo or fibroids)
• How stable energy, clear skin, and a calm mood are possible when your hormones are in sync

Tap play and let’s redefine what “normal” really means—for your body, your cycle, and your peace.
