Today, I take you behind the scenes of what it’s really like to run a business while navigating ADHD, PMDD, and burnout.

When I recorded this, I was in a dark place.

Deep in the PMDD spiral where suicidal thoughts felt consuming.

The next day, after my period came early, I feel like a different person. That’s the brutal truth of PMDD: it hijacks your brain, wrecks your energy, and distorts your reality.

I share exactly what I was going through, how ADHD makes it 100x worse, and why we need to talk more openly about this monthly mental health rollercoaster - especially as business owners.

You'll hear how I’m learning to plan my workload around my PMDD cycle, the self-care strategies that have actually helped, and why communication (even when it’s messy) is everything.

If you’ve ever felt like you were falling apart during “that time of the month” or questioned whether you can keep running your business, this episode will make you feel seen.

This one’s real. It’s uncomfortable. But it’s so needed.
