PMDD Redeemed | Emotional Regulation, Cycle Syncing, Monthly Cycle Hormones, Christian Women, Hormone Imbalance
This podcast is for women longing for hope and healing in the midst of PMDD.
It focuses on helping you remember the truth and character of God and who you are in him when every cell in your body and mind is telling you to do otherwise.
It's about find our hope, strength and anchoring in Jesus through this thorn in the flesh called PMDD, while also seeking to alleviate suffering by aligning our lifestyle practices with how God designed and created our bodies.
This isn't a "I'm cured! Do exactly what I did". It's a "let's walk through this together, here's what I've found helpful along the way".
If we haven't met, I'm Lauren Collins, the host of this podcast! I've been a registered nurse for over a decade, and my passion ever since being diagnosed with PMDD has been to help women on their own journeys. I'm also a mama, follower of Jesus, lover of lavender and farmer's markets, and yes, someone who has dealt with PMDD since I was 16.
My goal with this podcast is to ultimately point you to Christ as the one who walks with you through your PMDD struggles, and to stick with him whether you find healing or you continue to struggle your whole life this side of heaven. I will bring evidence-based research to you regarding PMDD, provide encouragement through Scripture and prayer and have guests who will also cheer you on.
So glad you're here.

Does it feel like your relationship with God takes a beating every premenstrual phase, where you're doubting his love for you or if you're loveable? Does it feel really hard to decipher between truth and lies? Is guilt, shame and condemnation speaking too loudly in your mind, telling you you're not worthy, that God doesn't love you?
Friend, I've been there, and it can be so hard to press into God when your thoughts are telling you the opposite.
In this episode, I'm sharing a framework that God shared with me regarding the different phases of the menstrual cycle, and how each phase can be a tool for growing closer to God and trusting his truth.
I pray this information blesses you so much! Have a listen!

Are you coming to another Easter feeling discouraged, like you're "failing" as a Christian because of the anxiety that you struggle with? Does peace and calm just feel so out of reach for you while you're battling the overwhelm, mental tornado and overthinking?
If this is where you are at this Easter, please have a listen to this episode and know that Christ offers a hand to you in the midst of the anxiety. You don't have to have it together to appreciate this Easter. In fact, the less you have it together the more you're pointed to Jesus. So come as you are!

Does this sound familiar: You're feeling the love with your spouse, things are going well, your communication is good and on point.
Then you hit your premenstrual phase and everything goes downhill from there.
You doubt your decision, your relationship, why you're together. You just want to get out and leave. You're frustrated, angry and the last thing you want to do is talk about it.
If this is something that keeps coming up for you, I'd encourage you to have a listen to this episode and try this tip. It'll really help ground you back in reality when the doubts and questions start and give you confidence for why you're with the guy you chose!
Enjoy!

In this episode, I'm sharing my own story with premenstrual anxiety, overthinking, paranoia, depression, and eventually receiving a diagnosis of PMDD.
It's been on my heart for a while now to share this episode with you, and there has been so much fear, resistance, second guessing, imposter syndrome- the whole shabang. But I believe there is power in our stories and owning them and knowing that God will use them for his glory.
I hope this episode blesses you, where you know & feel you're not alone in your struggle & that there is hope wherever you are at in your journey with premenstrual mental health issues, premenstrual anxiety, severe PMS or PMDD.
