FFP 352 | Decoding the Male Influencer Space | Intermittent Fasting, Fad Diets & Your Menstrual Cycle | Lisa | Fertility Friday

Women are not small men! Today I dive into the important topic: Decoding the MALE health influencer space! From intermittent fasting to magical "diets," I'm diving into the controversy and sharing why your menstrual cycle should be your guide to navigating what's right for YOU! I also get into why, from a professional standpoint, the menstrual cycle can be an integral part of helping your clients navigate this space.
