Episode Description

Has you're period changed recently? Has it ghosted you some months and showed up twice in others? The interview will help you understand why.

Andrea Donsky, nutritionist, menopause educator, published menopause researcher, and co-founder of wearemorphus.com chats with Alyx Coble Frakes, founder and CEO of The Agenda., a femtech platform that helps women and people with cycles align work and life with their hormonal rhythms for clearer focus, better communication, and sustainable performance during perimenopause.

Topics:

  • The importance of cycle tracking, recognizing hormonal shifts, managing symptoms, and the value of community support. 
  • How women are four different women at different phases of their cycle.
  • Encouraging women to embrace their biology, seek community support, and advocate for themselves in healthcare settings.
  • Listeners are reminded: your cycle is a source of wisdom and strength, not shame, knowledge and self-care can transform your journey at any age.
