In this episode, we explore a powerful, lesser-discussed view of PMDD—as a symptom of unresolved trauma, rather than just a hormonal imbalance. I dive into the idea that PMDD isn’t just an inconvenience to be "fixed" but a messenger highlighting past wounds that need our attention. We'll talk about the importance of shifting our perspective to thank and acknowledge PMDD for bringing this to light, instead of hating or ignoring it.

I also discuss the reality of different healing paths: for some, symptom management may be enough, while others may want to go deeper into the healing process. From day-to-day coping techniques to the truth about “quick fixes” like hysterectomies, we cover the complexities of finding a path that works for each individual.

If you’re seeking hope and looking for a new perspective on PMDD, this episode will inspire you to take small, compassionate steps forward in your healing journey.

I hope you enjoyed this episode and that recovery and change is possible.

I created Her Shift because I know what it’s like to want more—more confidence, more joy, more purpose, and just... more life. I shifted from a very unfulfilled & numb shell to whole, connected & happy (& successful). Quite literally from surviving to thriving... that's 'The Shift'
