Period problems are so common. Just because they are common doesn’t make them normal.

Roughly 25% of women experience irregular periods.

85% of women suffer with cramps.

40% of women deal with heavy bleeding at some point in their life.

These are significant life disruptions! 38% of the women who have one of these symptoms report that they are unable to perform daily tasks!

I was one of these people. Sadly - I dealt with all three of these things. I really felt very hopeless until I found Traditional Chinese Medicine. The more I learned, the more I realized that many of my issues were due to a lack of information about how to care for my body in the ways that I needed.

I want to take the mystery out of it for you. No one should have to suffer with one - let alone all - of these symptoms month after month.

The Alchemist Toolkit is my heart centered project to give you the guide book we all should have when we start our bleeding years.

This program teaches you how to eat, how to move, when to rest and when to push each month so you are working WITH your body and its natural energy instead of against it so you reduce/eliminate your symptoms.

Imagine a world with no cramps. Sounds like a dream. Well, that dream is possible. It begins with the Alchemist Toolkit.

In midlife, arousal isn’t gone — it’s different.

Perimenopause calls us to slow down, to listen, to feel. Our desire moves from the surface to the soul.

This week on Reproductive Rebel, I sit down with Xanet Pailet to talk about the evolution of sexuality after 40 — and how we can cultivate intimacy that honors the body we’re in now.

Because pleasure doesn’t expire. It matures.

🎧 From Hormones to Heartfire: The Evolution of Sexuality in Midlife — out now.

This photo says it all.

It might not look like much at first, but this interaction between my 17 year old and my husband during the most recent snow storm says it all.

My son is in the foreground - medical gloves because he can’t find his winter gloves. Shovel dragging beside him. Waiting instead of working.

My husband is in the background - fully dressed for the weather. Snowblower in action. Pausing only long enough to figure out why our son isn’t moving.

As the wind and snow curls around them I see so much meaning in this single image. Join me for my musings about how this image says it all in this week's Substack post.

The world feels chaotic. Systems are wobbling. Nervous systems are fried.

Taylor and Adrienne get raw about sick season, Florida climate whiplash, pop astrology, healthcare credentialism, and the deeper energetic reset happening right now. Eclipse season isn’t for impulsive decisions — it’s for radical responsibility.

This year isn’t about going viral. It’s about rebuilding with integrity.

Did you know that you can work harder in different phases of your cycle?

Learning the phases of your cycle, how to care for and nourish your body during them can actually make you a more productive person! Wild, right?

In the Alchemist Toolkit I teach you about the phases of your cycle, what to eat and more so you have the “guide book to being a woman” that we all wish we had from the beginning.

It’s never too late to support your health and get the most out of your menstrual month. When clients put these easy tips and tricks into practice I get messages like “A𝘥𝘳𝘪𝘦𝘯𝘯𝘦 - 𝘸𝘩𝘦𝘳𝘦 𝘩𝘢𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘣𝘦𝘦𝘯 𝘢𝘭𝘭 𝘮𝘺 𝘭𝘪𝘧𝘦?! 𝘛𝘩𝘪𝘴 𝘸𝘢𝘴 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘦𝘢𝘴𝘪𝘦𝘴𝘵 𝘱𝘦𝘳𝘪𝘰𝘥 𝘐’𝘷𝘦 𝘦𝘷𝘦𝘳 𝘩𝘢𝘥 𝘢𝘯𝘥 𝘐 𝘥𝘪𝘥𝘯’𝘵 𝘩𝘢𝘷𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘢𝘬𝘦 𝘮𝘰𝘳𝘦 𝘴𝘶𝘱𝘱𝘭𝘦𝘮𝘦𝘯𝘵𝘴 𝘰𝘳 𝘢𝘯𝘰𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘳 𝘱𝘳𝘰𝘵𝘰𝘤𝘰𝘭 𝘵𝘰 𝘥𝘰 𝘪𝘵!”undefined

Your hormones are shifting.
Your libido feels different.
And you start wondering — is this the end of desire?

The truth? It’s the beginning of a new kind of arousal. One that burns deeper, slower, truer.

This week on Reproductive Rebel, I talk with Xanet Pailet about the evolution of sexuality in midlife — and how to meet your body’s changing rhythms with curiosity, not shame.

Hit play, and let’s reframe what it means to be turned on by life again.

Did you know that learning the phases of your cycle can actually improve your immune system?

Our bodies are more susceptible to illness in the 3 days leading up to our bleed and during our bleed because our defense shield drops to allow for the bleed.

Interesting, right?

If you want to learn more about this and other ways to support your body and reduce symptoms during your cycle - join me for the Alchemist Toolkit. I teach you tips and tricks for supporting your body all month long.

Are you having issues with your period?

Let me start by saying that what is a healthy cycle doesn’t look like what we normalize in our culture.

Is your cycle:
* 4-6 days of fresh red blood only? (no - brown is NOT part of your period.)
* Are you symptom free? (no PMS, cramps, clots, brown blood)
* Does it arrive every 28-30 days (you are lunar and the lunar cycle is 29.5)

If you can’t say “yes” to all three of these your body is telling a story of imbalance and the Alchemist Toolkit is for you.

I walk you through step by step:
* What is happening in each phase of the cycle
* How to feed your body the right things for each phase
* Tips and tricks for giving your body the energy, rest and movement it needs in each phase

There are so many things we normalize in our culture that aren’t in fact normal. Common, yes. Healthy, no.

I want to help you have a healthy cycle because then you're in control. You can decide if/when you get pregnant and in today’s world - that is true power.

Steam - its that simple.

Moon Essence was born out of the reality that periods don’t have to suck. Yes, you read that correctly. Actually, when the body is in balance, periods are only supposed to be 4 days long and pain/bloating/headache free.

I can hear the sarcasm now - yeah right. A period that isn’t heavy and is free of discomfort? That’s a unicorn. Well ladies, I am offering you a unicorn.

Hi, I’m Adrienne and I have suffered from painful, heavy, irregular periods my whole adult life. When I was introduced to vaginal steaming - my whole world changed. For the first time in my adult life I have a regular, 4 day, even flow period with no unwanted side effects.

A period doesn’t have to stop you in your tracks each month, like it does for so many women. It was my personal success and a complete change in my quality of life that inspired me to start this business and share this knowledge with others.
