One of the things I am most excited about for The Embodied Woman Summit is bringing together this incredible gathering of women! 💜 Each woman brings her own unique wisdom, experiences, gifts and perspective, creating a beautiful tapestry of opportunities for us to explore, experience and discover. From the mind and body to the heart and soul, our speakers will be inviting us to look within, embrace our stories, reconnect with ourselves and explore what embodiment means in our own lives. Want a little sneak peek? Head over to the Calendar to explore their sessions, or step inside The Embodied Woman Chamber in the Classroom to get to know them! And stay tuned... over the coming days, I'll be sharing more about the wonderful women who will be joining us! Not one woman has all the answers, but together we create something extraordinary. 💜✨

Hello everyone! As you may have noticed, the transformation for The Embodied Woman Summit has already begun! Our About page and banner have been updated, and if you take a peek at November's calendar, you'll see that all of our summit sessions have already been scheduled! Go have a look! 👀 There is even an option to schedule the call in your calendar so if there is a session or two or three, set a reminder now. Our Classroom will also be going through a little transformation. During the summit, all current courses will be temporarily closed so we can keep everything organized and make it easy for attendees to navigate. There will be three dedicated summit courses available in the Classroom, and as members of The Flow Collective, you'll get early access to explore them once they're ready! 🙂 You'll also notice some new summit welcome posts pinned to the top of our community to help everyone find their way. Now, don't worry! The Flow Collective isn't going anywhere! 💜 Once the summit comes to a close, our courses will reopen and our community will continue to flow. However, there will be some exciting changes, new offerings, and opportunities for connection coming your way! The summit is just one part of the beautiful evolution of this space, and I'm excited for what's ahead. For now, continue to enjoy the community, explore, connect, and make yourself at home. There's so much more to come! 💜

During the luteal phase — the phase after ovulation and before your bleed — your body can become more insulin resistant, meaning it becomes less sensitive to insulin. Insulin is the hormone that helps move glucose (sugar) from your bloodstream into your cells to be used for energy. When your body becomes less sensitive to insulin, it isn't using glucose quite as efficiently — and amongst other things happening hormonally during this phase, this may play a role in why you find yourself reaching for more sugar and carbohydrates. So those premenstrual cravings aren't necessarily just you wanting chocolate... Your metabolism is actually shifting throughout your menstrual cycle. Another reason why understanding what's happening in each phase of our cycle is so important. 💜
