This week on In Her Season, we’re back with our second Round Table episode — an open, collaborative conversation exploring all things contraception.

Round Table episodes bring together clinical insight and lived experience in a shared discussion, creating space for nuance, questions, and real conversations about women’s health. Rather than a traditional interview, this format allows topics to unfold naturally, with evidence-based information grounded in the realities of women’s bodies and lives.

For this episode, we’re joined by Dr Lucy Haymes for an honest, accessible conversation about contraception — the options available to women, how they work, and the very real pros and cons that often aren’t fully explained.

Together, we explore:

• The different forms of contraception available today
• Hormonal and non-hormonal options, and how they may impact the body
• Common side effects, benefits, and trade-offs
• Why contraception can feel so different from one woman to the next
• How to make informed, body-led decisions that align with your values, health, and life stage
• 
  

This conversation is not about telling women what they should choose. It’s about understanding what’s available, asking better questions, and feeling empowered to make decisions that are right for your body.

As always, this episode is educational without being overwhelming, grounded without being clinical, and respectful of the complexity of women’s health. It holds space for curiosity, uncertainty, and choice — without shame, pressure, or one-size-fits-all answers.

Whether you’re starting contraception, reassessing your current method, coming off hormonal birth control, or simply wanting clearer information explained in a human way, this episode offers clarity, reassurance, and support.

This week on In Her Season, we’re joined by Marissa from reclaim_u_kinesiology for a powerful conversation exploring endometriosis, IVF, twin motherhood, and the deeper healing work of kinesiology.

While Marissa shares her personal journey through endometriosis and fertility treatment, this episode centres on the kinesiology side of healing — what it is, how it works, and why reconnecting with the body can be transformative after seasons of stress, medical intervention, and survival mode.

Marissa explains kinesiology as a gentle, body-led modality that works with the nervous system, subconscious patterns, and stored emotional stress. We talk about muscle testing and how it offers insight into what the body is holding beneath the surface — physically, emotionally, and energetically. Rather than overriding symptoms, this work invites curiosity: What is the body communicating? What needs support? What has not yet been processed?

We explore how chronic stress, trauma, and prolonged uncertainty — especially through experiences like endometriosis and IVF — can leave the nervous system dysregulated. Marissa shares how kinesiology sessions aim to restore balance by supporting regulation, emotional release, and a renewed sense of internal safety.

This episode holds space for the idea that the body keeps score — and that healing can be collaborative, layered, and compassionate. It’s not about replacing medical care, but about complementing it with deeper awareness and regulation. Whether you are navigating reproductive health challenges, feeling disconnected from your body, or simply curious about mind–body healing, this conversation offers clarity, reassurance, and insight into how kinesiology can support you in reclaiming your sense of self.

This week on In Her Season, we’re joined by Alisha from Breath of Fresh Air Cleaning for a grounded and compassionate conversation about practical home support for mothers who are in the thick of it.

Alisha shares how her work supports women during seasons of overwhelm, exhaustion, and transition, offering non-judgemental help that goes far beyond cleaning. We talk about how decluttering, gentle organisation, and resetting a space can bring a sense of calm, lightness, and relief when everything feels heavy.

Throughout the conversation, Alisha reflects on the emotional weight many mothers carry and how having support in the home can ease mental load, reduce stress, and create breathing room during demanding seasons. We explore the connection between environment and wellbeing, and how small, practical changes can help women feel more supported, seen, and capable again.

This episode holds space for the realities of motherhood, the invisible labour, and the power of compassionate support. It’s a reminder that asking for help is not failure, and that care can show up in practical, tangible ways.

Whether you’re navigating early motherhood, feeling overwhelmed by your space, or simply curious about how environment impacts wellbeing, this conversation offers reassurance, understanding, and a sense that you don’t have to do it all alone.
