Nobody talks about this, but I will — bad PMS symptoms can wreck your motherhood, your marriage, and your mental health for days every single month.

The mood swings. The rage. The crying over nothing. The physical pain that makes you want to curl up on the couch while four kids need you. It's real, it's hard, and you deserve to talk about it.

In this episode, I address the physical and emotional toll of hormonal fluctuations honestly.

We talk about: * What's actually happening in your body during PMS (and why it's so intense) * The difference between normal PMS and something that needs medical attention * How to manage the hardest days of your cycle with practical strategies * Approaching your health with both medical wisdom and spiritual grace
