E249: How I Prioritize True Rest As A Busy Mom To Fix PMS Mood Swings & Keep Hormones Balanced

Have you ever caught yourself holding your breath and realizing you’ve been tense for hours without even noticing? That was me all the time, until I started paying attention to what my body was asking for, rather than what I thought I should be doing.

So, today, I’m talking about rest. The real kind. Not sleep (though most of us aren’t getting enough of that either), but the kind of rest that lets your shoulders drop, your breath slow down, and your spirit finally feel safe. The kind that most of us, busy moms, avoid, or feel guilty about, even though it can change our hormones more than any supplement, protocol, or perfect routine ever can.

You'll learn:

• The surprising moment I realized I wasn’t truly resting 
• Why your body can’t absorb minerals or balance hormones, if your mind never slows down
• Simple and doable rest practices I use that make a bigger difference than any self-care checklist

If you’ve been wondering why PMS hits harder on the weeks you push through, or why your mood settles on the days you finally slow down, this episode will make that pattern unmistakably clear. You’ll hear exactly how your body signals that it’s done running on adrenaline, why your hormones can’t reset without real rest, and what small shifts move the needle when nothing else does.
