On this weeks episode, we have Dr. Anne Hussain, Naturopathic Doctor on the show to help us learn about our periods, the right way. The education around periods is lacking, and a lot of grew up without literacy around this vital component of our health, which lead us to have even more questions are we became adults. We wanted to ask every questions we have had ourselves or heard from all of you about periods, nothing was off limits!
We discussed:
-What a 'healthy period looks like'

-Why you don't need to cycle sync your workouts to your periods
-'Hormonal balance' and why this can do more harm then good when we are discussing medical conditions that can involve changes to the periods
