This episode is brought to your beautiful ears by Nature Nate’s honey.
This week’s conversation with Ilana Kosakiewicz could be the gamechanger you’ve been waiting for… Ilana is a kinesiologist, yoga teacher and meditation guide who specialises in helping her clients to optimise their energy, and she is passionate about teaching women how they can live their lives in a way that’s more aligned with their cycles. The upside? More energy, more flow… and less chance of burn-out.
I am constantly taken aback at the number of women in my community who have or are currently experiencing problems with their energy, immune systems and thyroids, and I really do believe that the expertise Ilana generously passes on today could prevent a lot of that discomfort and distress for women.
In our conversation, Ilana shares:
- Her own experience of burn-out, what she learned from it and her healing path out of it
- How that experience bumped her onto the path she’s on now
- The different modalities she works with, and how she brings them together
- Why working with our cycles can support us in our careers, and also our lives more broadly
- The fou distinct phases of a woman’s cycle
- How to approach these seasons if you don’t have a cycle right now (due to menopause, pregnancy, etc)
- How to know if you’re NOT working with your cycle
- An overview of each phase and what work/food/exercise we should focus on in each of them
- How the Winter phase holds the key to unlocking our energy for our whole cycle
- The resources she recommends if you’d like to educate yourself more on this space

The book we mention is WomanCode by Alyssa Vitti and the cycle tracking apps Ilana recommends are Flow and P Tracker.
