    E267: Which of These 3 PMS Hormone Patterns Matches Your Symptoms?

    2026/03/23 | 20 mins.
    You know PMS symptoms show up for you most months, but do you know what your symptoms are telling you about your hormones? 
    Today, I'm talking about 3 unique patterns that show up in the luteal phase and breaking down how the symptoms you're seeing each month relate to specific organ systems. 
    In this episode: 
    1. Is your PMS caused by burnout, blood sugar dysregulation, or gut problems? 
    2. The common mistakes I see sold as "quick fixes" for each pattern. 
    3. How to take the info your body is giving you with each pattern and simplify the next first step. 
    Your hormones are signals, not the enemy! When you take the time to learn what they're telling you, it's easier than ever to improve hormone symptoms and start having those pain-free, PMS-free cycles that have always felt out of reach.

    E266: The Emotional & Spiritual Roots Of PMS, Hormone Imbalance, And Low Libido

    2026/03/16 | 33 mins.
    I’ll be honest, this episode felt a little different to record - a little exciting, and a little nerve-wracking. Because instead of focusing on the usual physical side of hormones, I’m going deeper into something we don’t talk about as often: the emotional and especially spiritual roots behind symptoms like PMS, hormone imbalance, and low libido.
    I talk a lot about food, minerals, gut health, and detox on this podcast. And those things matter. But sometimes the reason symptoms linger isn’t just physical. Our health is deeply connected to the emotions we carry. From subtle victim-mindset patterns to long-held (shame-filled) beliefs about our bodies, sexuality, and identity as women, these patterns can keep our nervous system in stress mode and influence how our bodies function.
    You’ll hear about:
    The mindset patterns many high-functioning women fall into without realizing it
    A group of hidden emotions that can quietly show up as physical symptoms
    Why prayer, reflection, and emotional healing can influence symptoms like PMS and libido more than we expect
    I also share a personal moment where prayer helped me recognize emotional roots I had been holding onto and how releasing them shifted what I felt in my body almost immediately.
    If you’ve never thought about your hormones through this lens before, this conversation may feel both surprising and liberating.

    E265: Decoding Your PMS - What’s Normal And What’s A Red Flag

    2026/03/09 | 26 mins.
    If taking a supplement was the magic fix for PMS, wouldn’t we all be feeling amazing by now, right?
    In this episode, I’m breaking down PMS in a straightforward way. Not every change before your period is a problem. Some shifts in mood, energy, or appetite are completely normal. But there’s also a point where PMS becomes your body’s way of saying something deeper is off.
    The real issue often isn't just your hormones. It’s all about looking at the bigger picture of what your brain and body are experiencing every day. When your system is constantly stressed, depleted, or unsafe, maintaining hormonal balance becomes much harder.
    You’ll learn:
    What mild PMS looks like when hormones are functioning well 
    Symptoms that indicate deeper stress or imbalance 
    How stabilizing minerals and blood sugar can be more effective than random supplements
    One of my favorite moments recently was a client telling me that her kids said, “Mom, you’re being silly again, like you used to.”
    That’s the real goal. Not just fewer symptoms, but feeling like yourself again - laughing more, having the energy and patience for your family, and moving through your cycle without just trying to survive half the month.
    The good news is that these changes often start with much simpler steps than most women expect. Tune in to learn how to get there.

    E264: Creating Safety + Hormone Balance Through Simplifying Everything

    2026/03/02 | 19 mins.
    Have you ever bought the one thing that was supposed to fix your hormones, and then realized you’re more overwhelmed than before? That’s where this episode starts.
    We’re wrapping up our Safety Series with an idea that might seem too simple to make a difference: simplifying. It’s not about adding another supplement or following the latest trends, but about stepping back so your body can feel safe again.
    Because when your brain is overloaded with information, fear, and constant “fix this” messaging, cortisol stays high and progesterone struggles to keep up.
    We’ll unpack:
    How information overload and fear-based wellness culture keep your nervous system dysregulated
    Why doing “all the things” can make hormone symptoms worse
    The few simple habits that actually move the needle
    Sometimes, hormone balance isn’t about protecting yourself from every toxin or buying the right greens powder. Sometimes it comes from doing fewer things consistently so your body can finally settle.
    If you’ve been feeling burned out by wellness itself, listen in; this episode will feel like a reset.

    E263: Creating Safety in Marriage through Radical Responsibility With Haley Teixeira

    2026/02/23 | 44 mins.
    Do you notice that once a month your brain is VERY good at convincing you that your husband is the worst? Your nervous system is constantly scanning for safety, and if things feel tense with your spouse, your body stays stuck in a stress response that no amount of supplements can fix.
    Today, I’m talking with marriage coach Haley Teixeira about why emotional safety is the actual foundation for hormonal health. We’re diving into how our childhood wounds and patterns create a "protective" internal environment in our relationships that physically deregulates our minerals, leaving us feeling exhausted.
    You'll hear:
    How a lack of safety creates a mineral barrier that blocks rest and tanks your energy
    Why being your parents' "emotional confidant" as a kid is still driving your stress today
    Why stepping out of protection mode is the best pro-metabolic shift for your marriage
    This episode uncovers your body’s habit of building a literal calcium wall when your home feels like a pressure cooker. Pop it on while you make dinner tonight, because honestly, it’s a lot easier to fix your minerals than it is to find a new husband who doesn't "breathe so loudly".
