In this episode we chat with Naturopath Lucy Fitzgibbons. Lucy is so passionate about teaching her clients to track their cycle every month and learning how that can then impact the way we work, exercise, socialise and more.

We chat about
- The difference between a Naturopath and a Doctor
- The 4 phases of a cycle
- How to begin tracking your cycle
