What if we stopped waiting for a girl’s first period to start the conversation?

In today’s episode of Wild Flow, I’m diving into why our daughters and the girls in our lives—deserve more than just a“talk” about periods at the last minute. They deserve a sacred rite of passage, and they deserve it before they bleed.

This episode is an invitation to remember the power of menstrual education not just as information—but as initiation. We’ll explore the deeper purpose behind First Moon Circles®, how reclaiming ritual at menarche can ripple generational healing outward and upward, and why menstrual empowerment is leadership in action.

Whether you're a mother, teacher, mentor, or a woman who remembers how it felt to go through puberty alone—this is for you.

Because it’s never too early to begin healing. And the younger we begin, the deeper the roots grow.

In this episode, I share:

• Why we don’t have to wait for a girl's first bleed to start supporting her
• What a First Moon Circle really offers beyond education (spoiler: it’s a rite of passage)
• The cultural cost of menstrual shame and invisibility
• How these circles ripple out to heal mothers, grandmothers, and communities
• Why so many women are feeling the call to become facilitators right now
• The importance of celebration at menarche—not just coping tools
• How we train and support women to become menstrual educators even if they’ve never done this work before

In this raw and empowering episode, Charlotte is joined by Clinical Psychotherapist Tracy Proud to unpack the emotional intensity of perimenopause—especially for neurodivergent women—and how it impacts communication, relationships, and self-trust.

Together they explore how hormonal shifts can heighten emotional dysregulation and surface long-held relational patterns, often leading to overwhelm, miscommunication, and what’s often labeled as "rage." Rather than pathologising this experience, Tracy offers a lens of compassion, context, and embodied wisdom.

If you've ever felt “too much,” or struggled to hold your power in the midst of transition, this conversation offers tools, language, and support to help you come home to yourself.

What We Cover:

• Why rage during perimenopause is not a failure—but a powerful signal
• How neurodivergence can amplify relational and emotional intensity
• Tools for regulating and expressing emotion without shame
• The connection between attachment wounds and cyclical living
• How to begin healing relational strain during identity shifts

Meet Tracy:

Tracy Proud is a PACFA-accredited Clinical Psychotherapist with nearly a decade of experience supporting individuals and couples through the healing work of relational repair and emotional resilience. Her practice spans monogamous, poly, queer, and neurodivergent clients, with a trauma-informed, somatic approach. She is also a queer, neurodivergent woman, raising two neurospicy kids with her cis-male partner, and living through the ever-changing tides of perimenopause.

Charlotte

Can you honour your menstrual cycle and show up powerfully at work? Is it possible to feel empowered instead of overridden in structured, corporate environments?

In this refreshing conversation, I welcome menstrual cycle coach Nour Kayali to the Wild Flow Podcast for a deep dive into how cycle awareness can be honoured—not just at home or in wellness spaces—but in boardrooms, offices, and 9–5 schedules. Nour shares her personal journey from corporate employee to menstrual educator, and the empowering tools that helped her bridge both worlds.

You’ll hear about:

• Navigating cyclical energy in rigid workplace structures
• The impact of relationship dynamics on premenstrual needs
• Creative ways to track your cycle at work (and advocate for your energy)
• How companies can begin implementing menstrual wellbeing policies
• The power of normalising “I’m on my period” in professional settings

If you’ve ever felt like you have to leave part of yourself at the door to be taken seriously in your career, this episode is the permission slip you didn’t know you needed.
