EPISODE 65

Guest Episode with Lindsay Dalton.

What if everything you've been taught about your body's cycles is missing the most important truth? What if the changes you experience throughout your life - from first period to menopause - aren't random inconveniences but a sophisticated map to your own power?
Lindsay Dalton, founder of When The Wild Women Are, takes us on a journey through the wisdom of cyclical living that modern society has disconnected us from. As a former doula who witnessed women's strength in birth, Lindsay became fascinated by how early our relationship with our bodies forms - often with that very first period. Whether remembered as traumatic, celebratory, or simply unmemorable, this initiation shapes how we experience each cycle that follows.
The conversation flows through revelatory concepts like "inner seasons" - understanding how we naturally cycle through energetic spring, productive summer, reflective autumn and restful winter phases each month. Rather than pushing against these natural rhythms, Lindsay suggests embracing them as guidance for when to take action, when to complete projects, and when to rest and listen to intuition.
Perhaps most powerfully, Lindsay reframes menopause not as an ending but an evolution into wisdom and authenticity. As estrogen decreases, so too does our biological drive to please others - allowing many women to finally reclaim parts of themselves they set aside decades earlier. This explains why so many women in their 50s and beyond suddenly find themselves signing up for choirs, returning to childhood passions, and speaking truths they've held back.
For listeners feeling overwhelmed by hormone fluctuations or life transitions, Lindsay offers gentle starting points: simple daily check-ins with your body, tracking patterns without judgment, and finding community with other women who understand. Whether you're preparing a daughter for her first period, navigating perimenopause, or seeking to deepen your connection to your cyclical nature, this conversation offers a compassionate roadmap back to your own inner wisdom.
