October 14, 2025 • Episode 81

"This is the time when your energy is building..."

Kristi Norman joins me for the entire month of October to bring you this mini-series all on the topic of Cycle-Syncing for business owners. This week we dive into the follicular phase which is what Kristi calls the Building Phase. This is the time to dream it, design it, and do it! During this time of the month your window is open to brainstorming and creating, it is the time when your estrogen is rising therefore your confidence is climbing and your energy is expanding. Kristi and I discuss how to harness this surge to build momentum in your business without burning out. We explore ideal business tasks for this phase, the mindset of play/curiosity and how to let your intuition and strategy flow together as your superpower this time of the month. Each of these episodes will show you how to align your work with your body's natural rhythm and thrive because of it!
