77. Building a business that works with your menstrual cycle with Morín Glimmer

This week’s chat with Morín completely shifted how I think about working with my own body inside my business. We get into why she became a “brand strategist for the cyclical future of work,” how the four phases of the menstrual cycle map onto the seasons of nature, and why she believes the missing piece of every brand strategy is the body itself.The whole episode is full of the kind of gentle reframes that quietly change how you show up in your business.What we get into:* The four phases of the menstrual cycle and how to actually sync your work to them* Why rest is a resource, not a reward you earn after pushing through* Why your body is the capacity your business runs on (and what happens when you ignore it)About Morín:Morín Glimmer is a London-based feminist brand strategist and founder of Rosy Futures, a practice working at the intersection of brand, body, and business. Drawing on 15 years of brand development and over 30 years of living with PMDD, she helps feminist founders build identity-led brand foundations that hold, and uses cyclical living principles as an operational methodology in business. She co-hosts the podcast Wombly Being with Rosannah Jones, and her longer-term work is pointed toward rebuilding workplaces and economic structures around cyclical bodies, not against them.Links from this episode:* Wombly Being podcast* Wait list for The Bloody Work workshop* Website: rosyfutures.com* LinkedIn: Morín Glimmer* Instagram: @rosy.futuresBook recs from Morín:* Wild Power by Alexandra Pope and Sjanie Hugo Wurlitzer* Her Blood is Gold by Lara Owen* Period Power, Perimenopause Power, and Powerful by Maisie Hill* Caliban and the Witch by Silvia Federici* Mother Tongue by Jenni Nuttall======================💌 Want this podcast, more design nuggets as well as a nosey at what's cooking behind the scene delivered straight to your inbox? studiocoya.com/newsletter📱 Let's be friends on Instagram: instagram.com/studiocoya This is a public episode.
