High Heels Higher Standards

Moon Magic & Menstrual Cycles: Rhythms, Hormones, and Influence

• Ashley Werner • Season 1 • Episode 13

Are women really affected by the moon—or are we just being dramatic? 🌙 Spoiler: it’s a little bit of both.

In this episode of High Heels, Higher Standards, Ashley and Heidi blend science and spirituality to uncover the powerful connection between menstrual cycles, moon phases, hormones, and women’s leadership potential. From circadian vs. infradian rhythms to ancient lunar rituals, this conversation will change the way you see your body, your productivity, and your power.

✨ What you’ll learn in this episode:

  • The science behind the four menstrual phases (follicular, ovulation, luteal, menstruation) and how they shape energy, creativity, and focus.
  • The mystical connection between the moon and women’s cycles—and why cultures throughout history honored it.
  • How to align productivity, leadership, and creativity with your hormonal rhythm instead of fighting against it.
  • Self-care strategies for each cycle phase: nutrition, fitness, rest, and rituals.
  • Why your cycle is not a curse but a compass for power, clarity, and leadership.

Whether you’re curious about moon magic, cycle syncing, women’s health, or feminine leadership, this episode gives you both practical strategies and a mystical reframe to help you thrive.

Because your cycle isn’t a monthly problem—it’s a monthly map. And once you learn to follow it, you unlock productivity, creativity, and leadership that feels effortless.
