720. Mood Swings, Meltdowns & Your Hormones

Have you ever had a moment where you completely overreacted — and then instantly thought, “Whoa… where did that come from?”

Like, maybe you were already a little annoyed. You asked someone to do the dishes. They didn’t. You decided to do them yourself because you need a clean kitchen before you cook dinner. And then your husband walks in, casually puts another dirty dish in the sink…

…and you lose it.

Later, you think: That wasn’t even that big of a deal. Why did I snap like that?

These emotional swings — from zero to sixty in seconds — can feel frustrating, embarrassing, and honestly… kind of scary. Like you’re not in control of your own reactions.

But here’s the truth:

 It’s not just about willpower or being “too emotional.” Mood swings are often a sign your body is asking for help.

So what causes mood swings, really?

Mood shifts can be triggered by:

  • Hormonal fluctuations (especially around your cycle)

  • Nutrient deficiencies

  • Poor sleep

  • Gut imbalances affecting neurotransmitter production

  • Chronic stress or burnout

So yes, your cycle and hormones absolutely play a role. But so does the food you eat, how you move, how you sleep, and how well your system is supported overall.

If this hits home… you’re not alone. So many women tell me:

  • “I feel bad all the time.”

  • “I’m losing friendships.”

  • “My marriage is on the rocks and I’m not sure if it’s him or me… or both.”

  • “I don’t even like being around myself anymore.”

And over and over again, I see this: Once we support their hormones, mood, gut, and nutrients — everything changes.

Their relationships shift. Their marriage improves. Their anxiety softens. They feel like themselves again.

That’s exactly why I created the 14-Day Hormone Reset.

If you’re tired of feeling out of control, this is your next best step.

It’s a short and powerful mini course where you’ll get: 

✅ Daily action steps ✅ A hormone-balancing nutrition plan ✅ Morning + evening routines ✅ A customized protocol based on your assessment ✅ Tools to support your mood, energy, and resilience ✅ Support from me directly — this time, I’m adding in custom recommendations and help where you need it most

This isn’t like any other mini course I’ve run. It’s more personal, more transformative, and it’s been completely revamped based on feedback from women like you.

You deserve to feel like you again. You deserve to stop snapping and start feeling steady. You deserve to enjoy your relationships and your life without the overwhelm.
