Selling with my cycle: My journey of coming off the pill
This blog is for those of you who experience a monthly cycle and want to learn how to integrate it into your business practices.
My Personal Journey with My Cycle
My journey with my cycle and starting my coaching business has been quite an experience. It's not something I’ve talked about much before, but it has fundamentally changed the way I operate and set expectations for myself as a woman and business owner.
I want to share a bit about my personal journey, how it has impacted me and my business, and provide some context for why I’m even talking about this.
Understanding and Embracing My Cycle
I’ll discuss how I think about and approach my cycle in my business, offering reflections on how you can consider your own cycle and potentially implement similar strategies.
When I started questioning my long-term use of the pill and my connection to my womanhood, I began to develop a sacred relationship with my cycle.
This journey led to personal growth and a deeper connection with my body and its natural rhythms.
The Impact of Corporate Culture on Women's Cycles
As a woman in corporate, I noticed that the corporate world isn’t designed with women’s cycles in mind.
Everything is set up for constant productivity, which aligns more with male physiology.
Women’s cycles, however, are variable and don’t fit into the 24/7 productivity model.
Transitioning Off the Pill
Deciding to come off the pill was a significant step in aligning my business and personal life with my natural cycle.
The transition brought emotional and physical changes, and it was fascinating to observe the shifts.
I experienced emotions more fully and learned to navigate them as part of my CEO embodiment practice.
Navigating the Phases of the Cycle
I began to notice patterns and emotional shifts as my cycle regularized.
Understanding the phases of my cycle helped me align my business activities with my energy levels.
This alignment is crucial for maintaining CEO embodiment in life and business, embracing the fullness of life, and navigating the good, the bad, and the ugly with compassion and neutrality.
Embrace Your Cycle in your Coaching Business
Integrating my cycle into my business practices has been transformative.
It’s about feeling the fullness of life and navigating it with loving compassion.
For those of you considering this journey, I hope my story inspires you to explore how your cycle can be integral to your business success.
