Raising
Flora
giving tweens and teens
a healthy and empowered
start with their menstrual cycle
Things like:
your cycle is more than your period — each phase brings its own hormones, energy levels, strengths, and needs
ovulation is a vital sign of health, as important as blood pressure and temperature
period pain is not normal, your body is telling you something
knowing your unique cycle is your #1 superpower when it comes to your health and wellbeing
Hello and welcome.
I’m Liz. I’m a menstrual health educator and coach. I’m warm, down to earth and here to help — you can ask me anything.
I’m a Red School trained Menstruality Mentor and a certified FEMM and teenFEMM teacher. I’m a skilled coach and a seasoned group leader and as a mom of a teen, I’ve learned firsthand how to make this whole experience less shamey and more meaningful.
I love teaching about menstrual cycles — from biology and hormones to inner seasons and cyclical self care. I love answering questions and making periods a little less taboo every day. I’m especially passionate about perimenopause and puberty, helping women and girls navigate these big transitions together.
