It’s been a minute, but your favorite period podcast is back! In this episode of Dear Aunt Flo, I’m catching you up on life, healing, and the surprisingly easy decision to quit alcohol after a brutal endometriosis flare that landed me in the ER.
✨ We talk about:
How my cycles have changed
The decision to stop drinking & what pushed me there
What I miss most (spoiler: red wine)
Listening to my body as I prepare for future fertility
Navigating social spaces sober
A mocktail moment that reminded me joy is still possible
If you're navigating Endo and wondering if alcohol might be making things worse, this one’s for you.
🧘🏾♀️ Affirmation of the episode: I am stronger than my circumstances.

I am not a doctor so everything you will hear from me is out of my own personal experience and whatever research I did on my own time. I will try to reference where I got info from in the show notes if necessary. But don’t come for my non existent medical degree.
This is a podcast about menstrual cycles. If you have one, had one, will have one, I welcome you to this safe space. If you don’t have one but are a partner of someone who does, I also welcome you to this safe space. What I won’t tolerate is those who don’t experience a menstrual cycle shaming or degrading those who do. So if you’re in the comment section or the q&a section and leave behind anything other than love. Be blessed somewhere else cause you will be blocked here.
