Meet Jema Lee
Leading Menstrual Cycle Educator, Speaker, Certified Coach and visionary behind the global menstrual revolution.
I’m the menstrual cycle educator helping corporate leaders create truly inclusive workplaces, health practitioners serve their clients better, and menstruators everywhere reclaim their power with cyclical knowledge.
My mission is simple:
To make menstrual cycle and natural fertility literacy accessible and inclusive for every person and organisation ready to remember and embrace this knowledge.

From a personal healing experience to professional purpose
Like many when I was growing up, menstruation was full of hushed conversation and unexpressed discomfort. I struggled with irregular cycles and confusing symptoms that no one explained. A doctor’s prescription for hormonal contraception felt like a quick fix and something I didn’t actually understand.
Years later in my twenties, when my cycle didn’t return after stopping the Pill, a PCOS diagnosis revealed how disconnected I was from the signals my body was communicating. That diagnosis pushed me beyond the western medical model where I sought deeper knowledge in ancient practices like Ayurveda and modern fertility science. It was through this I discovered the intuitive rhythms of my cycle that reshaped my relationship with my body, wellbeing and life.
Over sixteen years, this journey developed into my life’s mission to work with menstruators...
Discovering their cyclical power, health professionals adopting menstrual health into their practice, and organisations building truly inclusive environments, to understand how menstrual health influences physical energy, emotional resilience, creativity, and connection.
The evolution from visual arts to certified menstrual coach education
Before diving into menstrual cycle education, I built my creative foundation as a swimwear fashion designer and professional photographer. Something that surprises some people is I also worked in food science manufacturing for seven years, which has helped me understand the science behind nutrition; along with the real-world challenges of making changes in our busy lives.
When I’m not changing the world of menstruation and natural fertility, you’ll find me exploring life with my young son and partner here in the Northern Rivers of New South Wales, Australia. Ocean swims are my tonic as often as I can in warm months (Family and friends call me the ‘daytime mermaid’).
I love connecting with other wise teachers and local Indigenous Elders to draw inspiration and knowledge from rich collaborations that continually shape my understanding.

It’s my hand on heart belief that...
…every menstruator deserves access to accurate, shame-free cycle education, regardless of gender identity, cultural background, where they work or receive healthcare.
…workplaces become more innovative and effective when they acknowledge cyclical rhythms instead of expecting everyone to show up the same way every day.
…the menstrual cycle is the fifth vital sign, and healthcare providers who understand this enable greater outcomes for everyone who menstruates.
…menstrual shame has no place in our world, no exceptions.
…ancient wisdom and modern science create the most powerful foundation for cyclical living, and this knowledge belongs to everyone,
…when we change how the world sees menstruation we change how the world sees menstruators, and consequently create more equitable spaces for everyone.
If my story resonates with you, and you’re ready to reclaim your own cyclical power, I’d love to guide you on what inevitably becomes a profound journey of self-discovery.
