My personal "a-ha" moment came during my monthly ritual of visiting the chiropractor for back pain that just wouldn't quit. One day, as I flipped through my calendar, I noticed something that made me stop dead in my tracks. I'd been booking those chiropractor appointments on the very same day of my cycle each month, without fail.
You guessed it—the same day that these symptoms descended upon me like a storm. It was uncanny, to say the least. But it didn't stop there.
As I delved deeper into the world of tracking, I began to uncover more connections—ones I never thought possible.
Not only did I spot the pain as a cycle-time companion, but I also discovered that sinus congestion and keratosis pilaris had made themselves right at home in this hormonal symphony. It was like a whirlwind of discovery, and I couldn't get enough of it.
This was the moment when everything changed. I transitioned from merely tracking these mysterious shifts to becoming absolutely obsessed with understanding them. I dived headfirst into the world of body signs and cycles, eventually moving on to help women navigate the stormy waters of emotional upheaval during their cycles.
