What if your self-worth is the key to unlocking happier and healthier relationships, especially if you're dealing with the emotional whirlwind of PMDD?" Join me on a deeply personal journey as I unravel the knots of low self-worth, a struggle that has been all too familiar in my relationships. Through candid reflections and shared experiences, we explore the detrimental impact of accepting less than we deserve, and how this pattern of behavior roots itself in unresolved childhood issues. This episode sheds light on the necessity of reparenting oneself and the courage it takes to navigate and break free from these cycles.

Together, we tackle the emotional complexities of foster care, adoption, and the concept of chosen family. Drawing from my own life, I reflect on how trauma responses, like the instinct to forgive and forget, have affected my intimate relationships and shaped my understanding of love and attachment. The narrative underscores the importance of meaningful connections, emphasizing that true family can be those we choose, not just those we are born into. By valuing ourselves, we pave the way for more fulfilling and respectful relationships, creating a support system that transcends biological ties.

But the journey doesn't stop there. For those in PMDD relationships, the stakes are even higher. We'll discuss how this disorder can cloud the perception of self-worth and make it easy to fall into patterns of over-apologizing and self-blame. Listen as I share insights on setting boundaries and the critical role communication plays in sustaining a partnership through PMDD's challenges. With a focus on empowerment, this episode promises tools and perspective shifts to foster a healthier relationship dynamic, urging couples to collaborate rather than place blame.
