Why didn’t anyone teach us this about our bodies?If you’ve ever felt disconnected from your body - especially after pregnancy, postpartum, or loss - you are not alone. And you’re not broken.In today’s episode, I’m sitting down with Emma Goff, a cyclical doula and fertility awareness educator, to talk about something so many of us were never taught: how to actually understand our cycles and reconnect with our bodies in a gentle, grace-filled way.We dive into simple steps to start tracking your cycle, breaking down fertility awareness so it doesn’t feel overwhelming, and the truth behind common myths about hormonal birth control.
