They know they have a period and they don't have a period.

And 99% of women, it doesn't go beyond that, they're knowledge, because we've never been taught.

And sadly enough, I've gone all the way through my doctoral studies and not once have I ever taken one course on feminine biology to understand the differences between men and women.

I was stunned when I finally pulled together what I could from the published research and mapped it all out.

And I was like, oh my God, this is the user's manual for feminine biology that we were never given. Why? Why were we never given this?

This is episode 415 of the Lifestyles Podcast. It's called Biohacking Women's Biorhythms for Performance and Peace with Kayla Osterhoff.

You will find complete show notes, links, and written transcripts for this one at LukeStory.com slash Kayla. That's K-A-Y-L-A.

Our guest today is a neuroscientist and women's health science expert whose work has been featured on stages and media around the world.

Formerly trained across the health sciences with degrees in health ecology, public health, epidemiology, and neuropsychophysiology,

Kayla has developed a truly holistic understanding of health and how to achieve resilience of the mind and body.

I got to say the knowledge she presents here is vast and she also presents it in a way that's very down to earth and practical,

which is what I always seek to achieve when delivering guests to you on the show.

This information is indispensable for women in my opinion, but listen, if you're a man and want to gain a deeper understanding of how to relate to and support the women in your life,

this is a must listen for you too. I personally gained so much insight from this episode and it has definitely made me a better husband,

employer, friend, and son to the women in my life. Here's a quick example of some of the topics we cover in this episode.

Kayla's family history that inspired her to focus on women's neuropsychophysiology, the staggering underrepresentation of female subjects in clinical research,

modern society shortcomings when it comes to women's natural cycles, how women can stop burning themselves out,

and the indigenous practice of tribal women coming together to accomplish particular goals at certain times of their synched cycles.

Kayla also breaks down the four different phases that women cycle through monthly and how gaining and understanding of these cycles can dramatically improve your life,

strategizing your work schedule to be as effective as possible.

Kayla's recommendations for practical cycle tracking, how you can use this knowledge to support any woman in your life,

and why this information really is the ultimate life hack for women.
