190 - My PMDD Journey ft. Sophie Milner

Do you feel like a different person for half the month? Are you being told ‘it’s just PMS’ when it feels like SO much more? If you’ve ever felt like your emotions, thoughts, and mental health are completely hijacked every single month—and no one seems to understand—you’re not alone. In this episode, I sit down with Sophie Milner to talk about PMDD (Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder), a condition that affects 1 in 20 women but is wildly underdiagnosed and misunderstood. We get into: 🔬 What PMDD actually is (and why it’s NOT ‘just bad PMS’). 🧠 The emotional & mental toll of feeling like a different person every cycle. 💊 Hormones, medication & treatment options (and why many doctors dismiss women’s pain). ⚡ How to start advocating for yourself & getting the right help. 💊 Sophie’s top tips and supplements; and 💡 Somatic healing & nervous system regulation to support PMDD symptoms. Sophie shares her personal experience with PMDD, the rollercoaster of misdiagnosis, and its impact on her relationships, career, and self-worth. If you’ve ever felt dismissed or gaslit about your hormonal symptoms, this episode is your permission slip to take them seriously.
