• 72. Want to Nourish Your Body But Don't Know Where to Start? Try These 4 Foods!
    Jan 27 2025

    Nutrition! Such an important part of properly nourishing our bodies, hormones, mind and emotions. If you're struggling with PMS, PMDD, low energy, irritability, anxiety or brain fog, starting with looking at what you're putting into your body could be the "medicine" you need to feel better.

    While this episode gives 4 overarching foods you can start integrating into your diet, in the third week of my hormone reset challenge happening right now, I go deeper into how to start eating better based on where you are in your cycle.

    Come and join and learn more about nutrition, menstrual health and the impact it has on your hormones!

  • 70. 4 Passages That Show God is With You in Your Pain and Suffering
    Jan 14 2025

    It can be easy to think of God just up there in Heaven waving a finger at us, saying "you should have this figured out by now" or "can you just pull up your bootstraps already?" But yet God is gracious and compassionate in the midst of our "figuring out", pain and suffering. Even when we're living in deliberate sin, he's still waiting on us and wants to restore us.

    In this episode, I'm sharing 4 passages that point to just this. God wants to heal, wants to restore, wants to rescue. He cares that you're brokenhearted, that you're struggling with debilitating anxiety or depression again this premenstrual phase, that you're discouraged about your health and wellness journey.

    Have a listen and may you encounter the God who heals and rescues.

    Jan 6 2025

    Happy New Year! And Happy 1st year to the podcast on December 18th! Crazy how times goes by!

    I'm so thankful for each and every one of you who has supported and listened to this podcast! My hope and prayer is that it has blessed, helped and encouraged you on your journey through PMS, PMDD, mood swings and hormonal imbalances.

    For this first episode of 2025, I wanted to share 2 things I ditched/ removed/ changed in 2024 and what I'm hoping to add or change for the upcoming year to support my endocrine and reproductive system. It's always encouraging to look back and see what small (or big) changes you made and celebrate them, and then make more goals for what's coming up!

    So have a listen, and I'd encourage you to spend a few minutes reflecting on some of your big or small emotional regulation or hormonal balancing changes you've made!

  • 67. Living a Life of Love With Jesus' Help | Advent Series Part 4
    Dec 23 2024

    We all know the classic passage about love in 1 Corinthians. But when you read it, does it instill in you? Guilt, freedom, condemnation? When we're dealing with PMS or PMDD symptoms, and we clearly see we aren't kind or patient, and we're actually just downright rude and self-seeking, how do we allow the gospel to move in us that turns us away from self-serving to self-sacrifice?

    This is the last of the Advent series, as Christmas is just a few days away. This episode brings both love and Christ together, because we can't love, we can't be gracious or kind until we allow the true and radical love of God to transform us.

    Blessings,

    Lauren

  • 66. Joy Even When I Have Mood Swings?! Advent Series Part 3
    Dec 16 2024

    Joy: it goes beyond just being happy and smiling all the time. Joy in Jesus is so much different than just being happy all the time, and it's even more pertinent when we're suffering, struggling or desiring something that just hasn't happened yet. However, how do we move beyond mood swings and how we're feeling in our premenstrual phase and truly root our strength in the joy of what Jesus has done for us and the promises God speaks over us? I know for my own self, this is an area God is continually refining me in. It requires humility and trusting in God's goodness, and not just in how I feel.

    So come have a listen to this third week of advent, and be invited to pursue a joy that's deep deep down, beyond fickle emotions and thoughts, but rather deeply grounded in the truth of who God is.

  • 65. Finding Peace When it Just Doesn't Make Sense | Advent Series Part 2
    Dec 9 2024

    We're onto our second week of Advent, and this week we're talking about peace. We've all heard peace thrown around by people: find your inner peace.. look within yourself to be calm. Lots of worldly advice that doesn't actually help. Instead, we need to find our peace from outside of ourselves, in God, the one who created us. So, if you've been asking questions like: What if I don't have enough _____________ ? And everything goes wrong? And we won't be all right? What if tragedy hits? These can be paralyzing if we don't know who to give them to.

    Have a listen and I pray this episode blesses you and points you to the Prince of Peace.
