Ever wish you could hand your partner a guidebook to help them get PMDD? Well... Aaron did exactly that. He’s the author of Hope - A Guide to PMDD for Partners & Caregivers and today he’s sharing his story of learning, stumbling, growing — and ultimately becoming a powerful support for his wife through her PMDD journey. We talk about what partners really need to know, how to navigate the harder days with more compassion (and less panic), and why hope is absolutely worth holding onto. Whether you have PMDD or love someone who does, this conversation is full of real talk, honest moments, and a lot of heart.

If this episode hits home, be sure to share it with someone who needs a little extra hope today. Share with your partners and loved ones!

Ever wish you could just highlight the mental clutter, hit backspace, and start fresh? You're in for a treat. Today I'm joined by the incredible Lucia Petrusova, a Rapid Transformational Therapy (RTT) therapist who's all about helping women break free from the subconscious beliefs keeping them stuck.

We chat about:

• What RTT actually is (and why it works so fast)
• How childhood patterns sneak into our adult lives
• Real-life shifts Lucia’s clients have experienced
• How to start tuning into your inner truth and healing at the root

Lucia brings a grounded, gentle approach to deep transformation — and if you’ve been feeling stuck, disconnected, or like you’re repeating the same loop over and over... this one’s for you.

I’m joined by Lisa de Jong — trauma-informed menstrual cycle coach and founder of the Menstrual Cycle Awareness Academy. We dive deep into the wisdom of the menstrual cycle, the connection between PMDD and unresolved trauma, and how somatic work can support us in becoming symptom-free, naturally.
