In this honest and inspiring episode, Natalie sits down with a former Red Tent Program client to discuss her journey from debilitating PMDD symptoms to living a vibrant, joyful life.Living overseas as a young mother, far from family support, she began experiencing intense anxiety, mood swings, physical pain, rumination, and relationship struggles that seemed to appear out of nowhere. For two weeks of every month she felt like herself. For the other two weeks, she felt as though she was becoming someone she didn't recognise.After years of confusion, self-doubt, and being told it was "just PMS", she finally discovered PMDD. But while receiving a diagnosis brought relief, it didn't provide the answers she was truly seeking.In this conversation, she shares how working through The Red Tent Program and RTT helped her uncover the unconscious beliefs and childhood experiences driving her symptoms, heal longstanding wounds around rejection, not feeling good enough, and people-pleasing, and ultimately transform her relationship with herself.Several years later, she reflects on the profound changes that have followed - from freedom from debilitating symptoms to stronger boundaries, deeper self-trust, reconnecting with creativity, and finding the confidence to live life on her own terms.The early signs of PMDD and why it often goes unrecognisedLiving abroad, motherhood, isolation and emotional overwhelmThe relief of finally discovering PMDD and receiving validationWhy hormones may amplify existing wounds rather than create themThe connection between PMDD, sensitivity, intuition and creativityChildhood experiences that shaped beliefs about worthiness and belongingHow people-pleasing develops as a survival strategyThe power of RTT and accessing the subconscious mindLearning to become the observer of your thoughtsReparenting the inner child and building self-trustWhy boundaries are an act of kindnessThe surprising link between physical symptoms and emotional painLife after healing: creativity, confidence, self-respect and freedom"Every month was trying to wake me up. PMDD wasn't punishing me - it was showing me what needed healing."PMDD is often viewed as a hormonal disorder to be managed, but for many women it can also be a powerful invitation to heal deeper emotional wounds. When we learn to understand the messages beneath the symptoms, profound transformation becomes possible.The Red Tent Program combines RTT (Rapid Transformational Therapy), hypnosis, metacognitive psychology, nervous system regulation, and trauma-informed healing tools to help women address the root causes of PMDD symptoms and reclaim their lives.Website: www.natalieryanhebert.comIf this episode resonated with you, please subscribe, leave a review, and share it with a woman who needs to hear that healing is possible.You are not alone.
