163. How to Show Up For Big Things on Day One of Your Cycle (Alexandra & Sjanie)

Red School Season 11 Episode 163

Have you ever had to show up in a big way on day one of your cycle and felt exposed, then - like me - totally exhausted afterwards? Today we’re exploring how menstrual cycle awareness can help you step up when you’re on your period; whether you have to do a big presentation at work, a speech at your best friend’s wedding, host a PTA meeting, or be visible in another way. 

A few days before we recorded this, Alexandra and Sjanie presented a menopause workshop at a festival, and Sjanie’s menstrual cycle set it up perfectly so that she would start her bleed late, on day 29, on that very morning.

We explore: 

  • How Sjanie prepared for the event beforehand by creating space, calling in support and recognising the power of the creative and pre-bleed void.

  • The pre-bleed, void superpowers that Sjanie channelled; including heightened intuition, trusting emergence, being in the unknown,

  • The one thing that Alexandra and Sjanie prioritise more than anything else, in all their creative work.
