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.

90. PMDD Root Causes Series Part 5: HPA-Axis Dysregulation
If stress makes your PMDD feel ten times louder, this episode will make everything click. We’re talking about the HPA axis — not in a science-heavy way, but in a real-life, “this is why I feel the way I do” way.
In this conversation, I’m naming the things so many of us walk through:• feeling overstimulated just trying to get through the day• snapping or shutting down because your body is already at capacity• exhaustion that feels spiritual and physical• the guilt that comes with being overwhelmed when you “should be stronger”• wondering why your symptoms flare when life gets stressful
And we’ll walk through:• why stress + HPA-Axis dysregulation doesn’t cause PMDD, but absolutely makes it louder (a bit different than the other root causes of premenstrual dysphoric disorder)• how to acknowledge the stress your body is actually carrying• simple ways to soften your system again• how to invite God into your stress instead of coping alone• gentle rhythms that support you all month long
This is your permission to stop pretending you’re fine and start supporting your body with grace, truth, and the help God offers.
