In this episode of the Menstrual Cycle Mastery Podcast, Lisa meets Theresa Won Kress, a loyal listener of the podcast, to chat about her journey with PMDD and trauma-informed healing.

Theresa shares how listening to the podcast has become one of the tools she returns to throughout her cycle to help navigate PMDD symptoms and emotional fluctuations.

In this conversation, Theresa opens up about her personal healing journey and how menstrual cycle awareness has supported her work as a film producer, business owner, writer, and creative consultant.

Inspired by the impact this work has had on her life, Theresa has decided to take the next step and train as a menstrual cycle coach herself by enrolling in the upcoming 2026 cohort of the Menstrual Coach Academy.

Lisa and Theresa talk about:

• The importance of trauma-informed coaching
• The power of emotional processing and healing grief
• The stories we tell ourselves — and how to change them
• Self-care when PMDD symptoms feel overwhelming
• Theresa’s journey with friendships and relationships
• Becoming a mother and how PMDD began for her
• Hope, recovery tips, and inspiration for others on a similar path

This episode is a powerful conversation about healing, self-understanding, and how deepening your relationship with your menstrual cycle can transform both your personal life and your work.

In this episode of the Menstrual Cycle Mastery Podcast, Lisa catches up with Menstrual Coach Academy graduate, Lili Lövei, to hear about her journey with PMDD and the Academy training.

Lili graduated in 2026 and has been on a long personal journey to uncover the root causes of her PMDD. She shares her hope, wisdom, and personal breakthroughs.

In this conversation, Lisa and Lili discuss:

• PMDD and the challenging symptoms it brings
• Being misdiagnosed with bipolar disorder and feeling misunderstood
• Why many doctors and therapists struggle to understand PMDD
• The role of trauma, rage, and the nervous system in PMDD
• How Lili’s experience with divorce shaped her journey
• Her experience in the Menstrual Coach Academy — and how she thrived even as someone who’s “not a group person”

If you’ve ever struggled with PMDD, felt misdiagnosed, or want to understand how cycle awareness can transform your life, this episode is for you.
