We started researching everything about health and made a lot of lifestyle changes. We started eating whole food and replacing our household products with more natural options. Due to a lack of natural solutions, we even began to DIY a lot of products.
But there was still an elephant in the room, and I could feel it in my womb… literally. I was still under hormonal birth control wearing a hormonal IUD, and every cell of me felt like it needed to get out.
Like everything else in that year, I started researching the most natural birth control (because we were not ready to start having children yet) and I could not find any “better alternative” at my doctor’s office.
It was through the book “Taking Charge of Your Fertility” that I learned about the Fertility Awareness Method (FAM). This was a giant wake-up call, and I had my IUD removed later that week.
As I continued learning more and began charting my cycle, I learned so much about myself and my emotions. So many things began to make sense in how aspects of everyday life and how we feel are so deeply rooted in our cycle. I was so grateful for this new knowledge and connection, but a part of me was also frustrated that it had never been taught to me. Right then and there, I promised myself that one day I would teach women and teens about the power that our cycles hold.
Fast forward to 2021, and I have now been using the FAM charting method for 7 years. In that time, this method helped me avoid pregnancy for 4 years and provided me with the knowledge to use my own hormonal patterns to easily conceive my daughter in 2018 (and avoid pregnancy since).
However, it has done more than that. FAM has brought me closer to my divine self, my body, and my emotions. I now know to honor all of my seasons, allow myself to rest, and plan my calendar following my cycle. It has been a beautiful self-care practice that has brought so many positives to my life. This is knowledge that every woman is entitled to know (and those that don’t menstruate can rely on sacred grand-mother mom and cycle with the moon).
The way that I teach the Fertility Awareness Method is different than any other on the market. Yes, It’s designed to teach you how to confidently chart and track your cycle for birth control and to achieve pregnancy, but it also supports you in connecting with your creative power within.
It’s designed for transformation.
I’m here to empower you to be who you want to be with the body literacy and the confidence you didn’t know you had. You are unique, divine, and cyclic and your life should imitate that too.
Let’s get started.
