Cycles, Sensitivity and the Significance of Labels with Holistic Menstrual Health Educator, Heather Litster (79)

Watch on Youtube HERE

Welcome Heather, a holistic menstrual health educator, to this episode of Rewild + Free where we discuss the significance of cycles, sensitivities, body literacy, and wide spectrum of neurodivergence.

Heather shares her journey from being formally diagnosed with bipolar disorder to exploring premenstrual dysphoric disorder (PMDD) and the broader implications of labels in understanding our bodies.

We delve into the sensory experiences unique to different phases of the menstrual cycle, the impact of societal expectations, and the importance of community support.

This episode is a must-listen for anyone interested in holistic health, empowerment through self-awareness, and breaking free from societal norms.

About the Podcast

REWILD + FREE
Stirring good kinda trouble. This is a podcast where conscious entrepreneurship and personal exploration meets decolonization, nervous system healing, and cyclical living
What happens when you stop trying to fit neatly into this world?
When you unbecome everything you were told to be?
When you breathe nuance into a world obsessed with the binary?
When you stop chasing linear success and remember the power of the cyclical, the seasonal—the way we were always meant to be?

This is REWILD + FREE.

Not a blueprint. But an invitation.

To unmask. To unravel. To break free—not just from survival, but from the deep conditioning that keeps us disconnected. From each other. From our bodies. From the earth.

In all facets of life—motherhood, womanhood, conscious business, spirituality.

These are the conversations social media can’t hold space for. The ones that don’t fit into bite-sized posts or neat little soundbites. The messy, layered, deeply human ones. A mix of raw personal musings and soul-stirring interviews with those willing to go beyond the surface.

I’m Nicole Pasveer—mother, truth-seeker, activator. Someone who spent years untangling herself from stories that were never hers to hold. I’ve done the people-pleasing, the perfectionism, the fitting into boxes too small for me. I know what it feels like to wake up and realize—this isn’t who I am.

So here we are.

Stirring good kinda trouble.

Having the conversations that matter—healing, liberation, decolonization, reimagining how we live, work, and lead. Not with easy answers, but with big, bold, sometimes impossible-to-answer questions.

Where nuance, reclamation, and reimagination collide

Let’s rewild and remember. Together.
