What’s something you wish your workplace understood about your body’s rhythm?

I used to think something was wrong with me.

I was ashamed to say, “I’m before my period,” or admit that my energy was low.

I didn’t understand why, right before ovulation, I could move mountains and dazzle every room.

I just pushed through.

Now I track the shifts — and plan WITH them.

But female physiology doesn’t work that way.
We move in phases.

Yet there’s no space to tap into this strength.
Yes — *strength*.

Because understanding your cycle is a superpower.

For decades, productivity culture has been built around one rhythm: the male one.

Same output, every day. Linear energy. Hustle as a baseline.

We’re not really supposed to talk about it, right?

Not in meetings.
Not on calendars.
Not even when the cramps, the fatigue, the fog, or the tears hit harder than a deadline.
