The Conscious Economics Podcast

Fact: the female brain is wired for leadership. Also fact: 2021 marks the largest mass exodus of women from the workforce with no return in sight. Women are physiologically 4 different people over the course of a month, yet, women are expected to operate and thrive in repetitive, consistent environments. So what's happening beneath the burn out? Host Rhiannon Rosalind sits down with Kayla Osterhoff, renowned neuroscientist and women's health expert, to dive deep into our body's natural rhythm, how it shows up in our emotional, physical, and professional lives, and how to reclaim our most un-tapped resource.

This week we’re throwing it back to the very first episode of The Lunar Club podcast. The Lunar Club was created as a space to have authentic conversations. We all have a story. We’ve all gone through pain, happiness, joy, and transition in our lives; when we share these parts of ourselves, we not only personally heal, but also collectively heal. This is my story–or at least a part of it. I share it in hopes that it will be helpful to those that listen and perhaps remind you that you are never alone.
