Cyclisity: A Different Kind of Fertility App (And Why That Matters) with Sabrina

Cyclisity: A Different Kind of Fertility App (And Why That Matters) with Sabrina

Author: Emmamma April 30, 2026 Duration: 38:03

In this episode, I’m joined by Sabrina Nowicki, CEO and co-founder of the Cyclisity app and niece of Toni Weschler, author of Taking Charge of Your Fertility.

We dive into what fertility awareness actually is (and what it’s not), why most cycle tracking apps miss the mark, and how charting your cycle can become one of the most powerful tools for understanding your health.

This conversation goes beyond “trying to conceive” or “avoiding pregnancy.” We’re talking about body literacy, informed consent, and learning to interpret your own data instead of outsourcing it to an algorithm.

Inside This Episode:

  • What the sympto-thermal method actually tracks (and why it’s considered the gold standard)
  • The difference between predicting ovulation vs. interpreting real-time data
  • Why most fertility apps can’t accurately tell you when you’re fertile
  • How charting can reveal underlying health patterns (like luteal phase concerns)
  • The truth about “normal” cycles (hint: 28 days isn’t the standard)
  • Why fertility awareness isn’t just for pregnancy—it's for lifelong health
  • How tools like apps, books, and instructors can work together (not replace each other)
  • The importance of data privacy in women’s health tracking
