This week we’re diving into a topic that so many experience but few openly talk about—PMS, mental health, and Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD). I’m joined by Olivia Carvalho, the Menstral Coach, for a real and honest conversation about what the menstal cycles are and how our cycles can impact mood, emotions, and daily life in ways that often go unseen or misunderstood.
Together, we unpack what PMS really is, how it connects to our mental health, and what makes PMDD different—and much more serious—than the “typical” premenstrual changes many people are told to just “deal with.” Olivia shares insights, stories, and knowledge to help break the stigma, raise awareness, and remind anyone struggling that they’re not alone.
If you’ve ever wondered why your cycle feels overwhelming at times, or want to learn more about how hormones and mental health intersect, this episode is for you!
