in her season
Food, Herbs & the Art of Cyclical Living
intimate women’s gathering
Your body has always known what season it is.
A four-part gathering series on the art and science of living in rhythm with your cycle — through food, herbs, and the wisdom your body is already speaking.
You have probably felt it without having a name for it. The week you are sharp, magnetic, ready for anything. The week the world feels like too much and you want to disappear into your own quiet. The sudden hunger. The sudden clarity. The sudden grief from nowhere.
This is not dysfunction. This is your cycle — a four-phase hormonal architecture that shapes your energy, your cravings, your emotional weather, and your capacity for connection every single month.
Most of us were never taught this. We were handed a box of tampons and told to push through. In Her Season is the education we deserved from the beginning — grounded in physiology, translated through food and plant medicine, and held in a circle of women who are done pretending their bodies run on a 24-hour clock.
“Your cycle is not an inconvenience to manage.
It is a map you were never given.”
Four classes. Four phases. Four seasons.
Class one · Menstrual
Winter — the elder
The inward turn. Iron, warming herbs, the radical act of stillness. Blending your own menstrual support tea to take home.
Class three · Ovulatory
Summer — the mother
The peak. LH surge, vitex, shatavari. Hands-on herbal oxymel making — rose, hibiscus, honey. The most sensory class of the series.
Class two · Follicular
Spring — the maiden
The rising. Estrogen, fermented foods, liver herbs. Seed cycling and making your first batch of phase-specific food together.
Class four · Luteal
Autumn — the wild woman
The descent. Progesterone, magnesium, adaptogens. Burdock, ginger cacao tonic and mapping the four seasons of your own cycle.
Each 90-minute gathering begins with a grounding meditation, moves through the physiology of the phase — what your hormones are actually doing and why — then into the food and herbal medicine that supports it. Every class closes with a facilitated circle: a real conversation about what it means to live this way.
You leave each session with something you made with your hands. By the end of the series, you will have a small apothecary of your own and a working map of your cycle that belongs to no one else.
This is for you if —
— You have been managing your cycle instead of understanding it
— PMS, fatigue, or mood swings feel like things that happen to you rather than signals from you
— You want to use food and herbs as medicine without the overwhelm
— You are navigating fertility, perimenopause, or simply wanting to feel more at home in your body
— You are done with wellness content that is loud, trendy, and disconnected from the earth
— You want to be in a room with women who are asking the same questions
