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.
