Sounds great, right? It might surprise you to know that women were born with this ability to optimize our work/life balance, but cultural taboos have prevented us from talking about it.

Favorite Quotes:

1. Even thinking about our cycle has so much shame and taboo and stigma around it in our world, that to be able to transform that into not being something that is a weakness that we have as women, but really truly one of our biggest assets has really helped me step fully into it. It has given me so much more grace, so much more space, and so much more understanding. -Renae
2. Regardless of what job you do or what's going on in your life, whether you're a mom with three kids or you're a single woman, understand more about how you're fundamentally wired. The patterns and cycles in your life will empower you and give you the information to create change. -Blake
3. We get into cycles of overwhelm, and cycles where we don't have enough time for things because we don't stop and take the time to get clear and prioritize. -Blake
4. We need recharging, we need connection and relationships, we need productivity. And we need to feel like we have the space to reflect back. We need all four of those pieces. So if you're letting go of one, if productivity and getting things done is more important than recharging, then something's gonna misfire at some point. All four pieces of the cycle are just as important as the other ones. -Renae
5. Sometimes the bravest and the biggest thing you can do is set the computer down and walk away and come back to it when your body's ready. -Renae
