Believe it when a woman tells you this: womanhood is a complex journey.
Moving through demanding personal, professional, and social lives, putting others first while leaving our own needs behind, measuring ourselves against outdated, imposed, and borrowed rules and expectations – we do it all while flowing through five phases of the menstrual cycle, perimenopause, or menopause, while the world is living by testosterone-based linear expectations: to be constant, ever-productive, always- in-a-good-mood.
Every 28 days, the female emotional landscape makes a full circle. We feel overpowered by sadness or fear, and then overflown with joy and creativity. Or we feel withdrawn from the world, just to cling to loved ones in a few days – these shifts aren’t random and inconvenient—they are expected part of our monthly rhythm.
For too long, the world labeled women as “too much” or “not enough” due to a sexist perception of female emotional cycling. Eve’s Flow Project was created to reframe that outdated, deeply misogynistic approach to what we know as menstrual cycle’s “mood swings”. Here, we learn to recognize the timing and accept the structure behind the cyclical shifts of female emotional states and behaviors, so we can see womanhood as it is without judgment and with deep respect for the flow.
