The Confident Motherhood Podcast

Finally at Age 40, Understanding Living by my Cycle!

Anne Carlucci

Ever feel like no matter what you try—working out more, eating more protein, cutting back on sugar—the weight just won’t budge, and your energy still crashes at the worst times?

You’re not broken, mama. The truth is, most of us have been trying to “fix” our health without realizing that our bodies are designed to function on a completely different rhythm than men’s. When you ignore your cycle, you miss out on one of the most powerful tools you already have inside of you.

In this kickoff episode of Season 3, I’m sharing how I’ve learned to align my health, energy, and even fasting practices with my cycle—and why this has been an absolute game changer for both my body and my mindset.

BY THE TIME YOU FINISH LISTENING, YOU’LL DISCOVER:

  • Why traditional “eat less, move more” advice doesn’t work the same way for women as it does for men
  • How syncing your nutrition, fasting, and energy with your monthly cycle can unlock real results
  • What happened when I completed a 72-hour water fast (and why I’d only do it this way now)
  • Practical ways you can start listening to your body’s natural rhythms—without restriction or burnout

Your body isn’t fighting against you. It’s working with you—you just need to learn the language of your cycle. This episode will help you tap into that wisdom so you can feel more aligned, more energized, and more confident than ever.
