Cycle syncing. Female entrepeneurs;
As women, we are controlled and influenced by our menstrual cycle, which consists of four different phases. In these different phases, we are differently productive, social, motivated and therefore have different times that are good for different things.
I myself have felt like a slave to my cycle for a long time and been hit hard by the fact that the motivation goes up and down along with it. When I instead learned more about the phases and how I can adapt accordingly, it was revolutionary for my life.
I can book podcasts, meetings, workshops and things like that when I'm in my most social phase. I can focus more on planning when I feel like being at home and during the menstruation itself - use for reflection, rest, gather inspiration. As well as adapting the diet and exercise to feel the best during the different phases.
Working life is created by men and we have adapted accordingly instead of having adapted to our own body and our own cycle which is constantly in motion. Forcing us to be productive during phases where motivation is low is not as optimal. As self-employed and entrepreneur, we can therefore create a work environment that is to our greatest advantage and get more out of our lives and our work.
I have kept a diary of my phases and made a note of when things happen and how I feel on different occasions in order to have a reasonable idea of how I should organize my life. Of course, it makes it easier if your period is regular! I have the big advantage that mine follows the moon so I can always look up at the sky to have some idea ;)
Feel free to tell us about your thoughts! Was this an eye opener for you? <3
