I’ve always thought it was a little cruel that the phase of your cycle where your emotions are the strongest also makes you bloated
Of course it’s natural for these changes to occur from month to month. But in a world that doesn’t recognize the cyclical nature of women’s bodies and encourages us to be as small as possible, it’s also natural to struggle with these shifts.
This month, I’ll be joined by Jessica Jamison, a licensed therapist and certified trainer to lead a conversation about body image, the shifts that we might experience throughout our cycle, and how to navigate them with more ease.
In this meetup we’ll:
✨ Talk about what body image actually is
✨ Gain insight on the thoughts we have about our body and how this changes throughout the cycle
✨ Learn practical tools for riding out harder body image days, so we can continue to treat ourselves with love and kindness
The Cycle Charting meetups are a space to talk about all things related to the menstrual cycle, with a focus on fertility awareness and cycle charting. We’re changing the world one conversation at a time!

What the Community is Saying
“You have a really comforting presence. This has been a great support for me during my fertility journey.” - S.P.
“I attended a Cycle Charting meet-up that Julie hosted this week. She created such a safe space for us all to talk about our cycles, the symptoms we experience as a result, and how frustrating it can be to not have answers about what's best for our own biology. She shares great resources in there, too. If you are looking for someone who's passionate and trained in this, make sure you attend one of her meet-ups” - R.P.
“This group is sooooo valuable for all women… especially for those who never REALLY learned about their bodies and the magic of the menstrual cycle, anyone coming off birth control, trying to conceive, or want to feel more comfortable talking about and being present in their bodies. Highly recommend.” - K.R.
