Summary

In this eye-opening episode, Jami dives into the topic of women’s hormones and the internal “clocks” that shape our energy, mood, and productivity. While men tend to operate on a 24-hour hormonal cycle, women’s bodies follow a 28-day rhythm that impacts far more than just our periods. Jami explains how understanding the four phases of your cycle—menstrual, follicular, ovulatory, and luteal—can bring clarity and grace into your daily life.

Learn how to sync your schedule, workouts, and expectations with your body’s natural rhythms, why it’s okay to feel tired some weeks and energized the next, and how God beautifully designed our bodies with intentional cycles of rest and renewal.

This conversation is practical, faith-rooted, and encouraging, perfect for any woman who wants to work with her hormones instead of fighting them.

1:33.4	the last few weeks, and it has been really popular. I think this is something that we as women
1:38.2	need to understand and be having a lot more conversations about. So we're going to get into that.
1:43.7	Today's episode might actually be slightly controversial, but it's going to be a lot more conversations about. So we're going to get into that. Today's episode might actually
