Episode 102: Yearly Planning the Cyclical Way
Subscribe in Apple Podcast I Spotify I YouTube Podcast
It's mid-January and you might be feeling like you should be hustling hard on those New Year goals—but what if your body is telling you something different? In this episode, I'm sharing why traditional January planning might be setting you up for burnout and how to plan your entire year in a way that honors BOTH the environmental seasons around you and your menstrual cycle within you. I'm getting real about my cement-shoes-in-a-5km-race moments, my Black Friday launch disaster, and how planning cyclically transformed my business and life. If you've ever felt exhausted trying to keep up with everyone else's timeline, this episode is your permission slip to create your own rhythm.
In this episode we explore:
Why January 1st isn't actually your new year (hint: Spring Equinox is where the magic happens)
How to plan with the four environmental seasons—winter for rest and reflection, spring for initiation, summer for connection, and fall for refinement
The power of layering your menstrual cycle phases with the calendar year to plan according to your actual energy
My real story of trying to sell during my period on Black Friday (spoiler: it flopped) and why marketing strategies don't work when you're swimming upstream against your body
Simple practices to start honoring your cycles instead of fighting them
