Hey love, welcome to this week’s Cycle Check-In on the Healing Her Story podcast! 🌙✨

We’re in the New Moon phase—a potent time of deep rest, reflection, and renewal. If you’ve been feeling a pull inward, noticing a dip in energy or motivation, or sensing the need for a fresh start, you’re right on time.

In this episode, I share:

🌑 Why your energy might feel lower right now—and why that’s actually a good thing
🌑 The power of slowing down, visioning, and letting go of what no longer serves you
🌑 How to work with this cycle instead of fighting against it
🌑 The hidden gifts of the New Moon: new ideas, inspirations, and unexpected opportunities

If you’re feeling overwhelmed, stuck, or unsure about your next steps, this episode will help you get clear, reset, and realign with your heart’s desires.

To support you in this process, I’ve created a New Moon Meditation to help you tune in and receive clarity. 🌑💫

Have you ever felt drained, overwhelmed, or just off after spending time on social media? You're not alone. In this episode of Healing Her Story, I dive deep into my personal journey of reassessing my relationship with social media and the incredible impact it's had on my creativity, mental health, and overall well-being.

We explore the research on how social media affects women's mental health—how it fuels comparison, self-doubt, and burnout—and why so many of us are feeling called to step away or redefine how we engage with it. If you’ve been feeling disconnected from yourself, struggling with anxiety, or constantly caught in the cycle of doing too much, this conversation will offer you the insight and tools you need to start reclaiming your time, energy, and creativity.

In this episode, I share:

✨ How social media was affecting my nervous system, creativity, and sense of self

✨ Eye-opening studies on how social media impacts women’s mental health

✨ Signs that your relationship with social media may need to shift

✨ Practical ways to set boundaries, reduce comparison, and use social media with intention

✨ How stepping away has allowed me to deepen my healing, create more art, and feel more present in my life

If you’re ready to break free from the scroll, reconnect with your intuition, and find more balance in a world that constantly demands your attention—this episode is for you.

As we move into the waning moon phase, we are invited to slow down, release, and do less—but for many of us, that’s easier said than done. In a world that glorifies productivity, rest can feel uncomfortable, unsafe, or even impossible.

In this week’s cycle check-in, I explore why slowing down is so hard and share practical, gentle ways to begin cultivating rest in ways that feel safe and doable. I introduce The R’s—a framework to help you create more balance, break cycles of stress and burnout, and shift away from the constant pressure to do more.

Learning to honor your natural rhythms isn’t just an act of self-care—it’s an act of resistance against the patriarchal systems that disconnect us from our bodies and push us into chronic stress and depletion. This week, I guide you through ways to reclaim your rest, nourish yourself, and restore balance in a world that so often demands the opposite.

✨ Inside this episode, I share:

😴 Why slowing down can feel so hard—especially for women

😴 How The R’s can help you break the cycle of overdoing and burnout

😴 Simple, doable ways to embrace rest (even if it feels foreign or scary)
