I cannot WAIT for you to hear this episode! I truly believe the most important thing we can learn as women is how to understand our menstrual cycle. And today’s episode is ALL about that.


I had the opportunity to chat with Lisa Hendrickson-Jack who’s the author of one of my fave books The 5th Vital Sign.

Here are some of the topics we chat about

  • The 5th Vital Sign- what is it & why is it important?
  • How to read your menstrual cycle as a window into your health
  • The shifts you’ll see in your body during each phase of your cycle
  • The importance of ovulation for overall health
  • When to stop taking BC before trying to conceive 
  • The history of the Birth Control Pill
  • alternative contraception methods
  • Different types of cervical mucus
  • Cervical Mucus Patterns

And more! I know you’re going to love this as much as I did!

A little bit about Lisa:
Lisa Hendrickson-Jack is a certified Fertility Awareness Educator and Holistic Reproductive
Health Practitioner who teaches women to chart their menstrual cycles for natural birth
control, conception, and monitoring overall health. In her new book The Fifth Vital Sign,
Lisa debunks the myth that regular ovulation is only important when you want children by
recognizing the menstrual cycle as a vital sign. Drawing heavily from the current scientific
literature, Lisa presents an evidence-based approach to fertility awareness and menstrual
cycle optimization. She hosts the Fertility Friday Podcast, a weekly radio show devoted to
helping women connect to their fifth vital sign by uncovering the connection between
menstrual cycle health, fertility, and overall health.
