Psyche & Cycle: Decoding the Hormonal Influence on Mood -Part 1 (Overview)
Welcome to the opening chapter of Psyche & Cycle - a grounded, no-nonsense, soul-led series exploring the hormonal rollercoaster so many women are silently riding. In this first episode, I map the terrain: from puberty to menopause, from postpartum to PMDD, from PCOS to perimenopause - and everything in between.

If you’ve ever been told it’s “just anxiety”…
If you’ve been handed an SSRI instead of a blood test…
If you’ve felt like your symptoms don’t make sense; this is where we start to untangle it all.

We’ll talk mood, misdiagnosis, and the missing medical literacy every woman deserves.
Because this isn’t just biology. It’s your life. And it’s time we told the truth about it.If you’re navigating mood swings, burnout, hormonal chaos, or confusing diagnoses; these series of episodes are for you. Soul Path Alchemy blends psychological insight, spiritual depth, and practical wisdom for women ready to reclaim their bodies and their lives.Before we go any further, I need to say this: I’m not a doctor. I’m not an endocrinologist. I’m a psychotherapist who’s worked with thousands of women and what I’ve seen again and again is this: people get told they’re anxious or depressed - when in fact, they’re hormonally dysregulated. They get handed an SSRI, but no one has asked about their cycle, their sleep, their skin, their weight changes, or their libido. This episode is not medical advice. It’s a flashlight. A conversation starter. It’s for the woman who knows something’s off, but keeps getting told ‘it’s just stress.’ If that’s you, this one’s for you.
