In this solo episode, Johanna shares her personal experiences with Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD) and ADHD, shining light on the often-overlooked intersection of hormonal and neurodivergent health in women. She reflects on the emotional shifts of the luteal phase, the exhaustion of being dismissed by professionals, and the journey toward self-trust and holistic healing.
Johanna also opens up about navigating personal loss, her evolving professional path, and her mission to empower women to understand their cycles, advocate for themselves, and manage mental health through compassion and evidence-based strategies.
