Today Lisa sits down with Briana Villegas, another graduate of the Menstrual Coach Academy in 2023. Briana came to the Academy with her own personal journey of living with and navigating PMDD. 

Lisa and Briana go deep on:

  • How she got diagnosed with PMDD and what that even means
  • How Menstrual Cycle Awareness can be helpful but what downsides it might have
  • How to be in 'negotiation' with your cycle rather than in a rigid self-care structure
  • How to rewire our nervous system for safety and regulation in difficult PMDD or chronic pain moments
  • The power of presence, connection, and building intimacy with ourselves
  • Briana's experience at the Menstrual Coach Academy and how that has supported her to build the practice she has today
  • The intersection of business and practice as coaching practitioners
