Diana Wassef is a Lebanese-Egyptian living in upstate New York with her lovely husband Patrick and two furry creatures Qi-Qi & Umpa. Her work centers on menstrual cycle awareness, natural fertility, and cyclical living as a path to deeper embodiment. She guides women toward reconnecting with their inner rhythm, and runs Cremona Studios — a sustainable fashion label rooted in the phases of the cycle and the stories woven within them.
We begin our conversation hearing about Diana’s background, her love for Lebabon and why she left. After suffering for most of her life with painful menstrual cycles, she at last finds a course that awakens her to a new relationship to her cycle and cyclical living. She shares about the 4 phase cycle and how this awareness transformed her life. After years of building this new relationship and some additional training, she now supports women who are seeking a deeper relationship with their cycle, whether it be because of the inherent beauty of it, or because of a specific need to balance things out or support a fertility journey. Diana shares honestly about her own fertility journey and the two pregnancy losses she’s experienced in this past year. We get a little personal together about these loses we’ve both experienced and how we hope having these conversations will help to normalize the discussion around pregnancy loss to better support those experiencing it.
We also dip into her clothing line, and how she went from a goth designer to one aligned with the seasons of the menstrual cycle. Yes, you heard “Bloody Romper.”
She offers regular “womb circles” in the area. Stay in tuned via her IG account for all the goodness.
