Luteal Rage, Nervous System Burnout, and Coming Home to Your Cycle with Gigi Hunt

In this episode, Emma sits down with Gigi Hunt — a cycle alignment mentor and neurosomatic practitioner who helps high-achieving women move from burnout, spiraling moods, and “luteal rage” into grounded clarity and emotional steadiness.

Gigi shares her powerful story of postpartum depletion, chronic stress, and feeling like a stranger in her own body — and how she eventually realized that her hormones weren’t the problem. Her nervous system was exhausted.

Together, Emma and Gigi unpack what’s actually happening during late-cycle intensity, why the luteal phase is a truth-teller (not a flaw), and how emotional patterns reveal unmet needs, boundaries, and intuition.

They explore the deeper layers of cyclical living, the symptoms we tend to dismiss as “just PMS,” and the cultural conditioning that teaches women to override their bodies instead of listening. Gigi also describes how her RN background, her work with embodiment and energetics, and her own healing shaped the Bloom Method — her framework for helping women regulate their stress response, reconnect with their cyclical rhythm, and feel safe in their bodies again.

You’ll hear practical tools for nervous system regulation, daily rituals that support emotional steadiness, and gentle guidance on how to start if you’re feeling disconnected, overwhelmed, or lost in your luteal phase every month.

This conversation is grounding, validating, and full of permission to work with your body — not against it. If you’ve ever felt overstimulated before your period, held yourself to impossible standards, or wondered why you can’t “just handle it,” this episode will help you breathe deeper and reconnect with your own wisdom.
