Mumma Matters: How the Menstrual Cycle Affects Motherhood

Ever feel like you’re drowning in exhaustion, snapping at everyone, or just not yourself, only to realise your period’s due?

In this episode, I chat with Kasi from Flo & Thrive about the powerful link between our menstrual cycle, motherhood, and mental wellbeing. We explore how hormonal changes can affect our mood, energy, and ability to cope with the daily mental load of being a mum. Kasi walks us through each phase of the cycle and shares gentle, practical ways to track it, spot patterns, and show ourselves more compassion (especially when the guilt creeps in). She also opens up about navigating Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) and how understanding her cycle helped her support her mental wellbeing and feel more present in motherhood.
