Tuning in to Each Season of Your Cycle with Claire Baker
Welcome to Zimmerman Podcast Episode 81!
Today, I’m interviewing Claire Baker. Claire is a menstrual coach whose passion is educating women about their cycles, hormones, and unique monthly patterns.
It’s only been in the past year or two that I realized that my period was more than a dreaded week each month. It’s an entire cycle with four distinct phases, and the week we bleed is just one of those phases!
Through experiencing adrenal fatigue that affected literally every aspect of my life from my energy to my emotions to my work focus to my sex drive, learning about my four-season cycle not only gave me back my health, but helped me to understand why I feel how I feel at different times of the month.
Episode 81 Topics:
The four seasons of a women’s cycle
What happens when we gets stuck in one phase of the cycle
What The Pill does to our bodies
How to talk to our kids, male and female, about the menstrual cycle

My favorite product pairings for this episode...
Beekeeper’s Naturals
In October 2019, I decided to write the entire first draft of my book in like... five days. It was intense. I knew I needed to be laser focused for those four days, so you better believe I loaded up on my Beekeeper’s Naturals goodies every day that week!
I took the B. Powered superfood honey to improve my focus and keep me alert. I also took a BLIXR vial each morning to clear out that brain fog.
Truthfully, two years ago I never could have written this book in four days. I didn’t have the mental clarity or the energy to do it. But my Beekeeper’s honey keeps me fueled and fog-free, and I can definitely notice a difference on the days I forget to take it.

Sleeping with a Stranger
Sleeping with a Stranger is officially available everywhere books are sold in hardcover, paperback, ebook, and audiobook. Since the book’s launch, I’ve been amazed by how it has been received. From being named a best seller by USA Today, the Wall Street Journal, Amazon and Barnes & Noble to incredibly personal and touching reviews from my amazing readers, it’s been such a wild journey!
Here’s one of my favorite reviews…
“I love the honesty of this book. It is real and raw and doesn't hold back; and that is why it is so mesmerizing. I could relate on so many levels and I know it must've been so hard to write about many of these very personal and taboo topics. I couldn't put the book down, it was such an easy and enlightening read. I highly recommend this to anyone who is soul searching or just looking for some perspective. Truth is better than fiction!”
