PMS is not just part of being a woman. And it's also not something to just “honor and embrace.”This is a re-release of one of my most important episodes, with a new intro about my upcoming masterclass Get PMS Free. We get into the two extremes that are both getting it wrong, what a healthy luteal phase actually looks like, and the root causes underneath PMS that nobody is talking about.You deserve better than symptoms everyone else has normalized.00:00 Moon Baby Magic Intro00:32 Rerelease And Masterclass01:21 Why PMS Needs Nuance04:25 Solo Episode Setup08:04 Sharing My PMS Story14:27 Is This Really Normal?15:37 Two Extremes On PMS19:09 Wild Woman Archetype22:31 Healthy Luteal Phase24:12 Root Causes And Healing Steps28:37 LiverQi  Stagnation31:12 Healing Invitation And Close32:05 Podcast OutroGet PMS Free Masterclass — October 1st, 2026Early bird $37 until September 27thhttps://www.moonbabymagic.com/pmsfreeFollow Natalie on Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/natalie.marieclaire

Before we spend any money on labs, let's talk about what your body is already telling you for free.In this episode I'm breaking down the top two ways to figure out what's going on with your hormones without any testing. Then we get into the three tests I order most in my practice — what each one is for, who actually needs it, and when I'd recommend running it.Your homework is at the end. :)In this episode…Get the Tempdrop — code AFMOONBABYMAGIC for 20% off until August 28th, then 10% offhttp://www.tempdrop.com/discount/AFMOONBABYMAGICThe Root Cause Thyroid Healing Protocolhttps://www.moonbabymagic.com/rootcausethyroidhealingprotocolMenstrual Cycle Masteryhttps://www.moonbabymagic.com/menstrualcyclemasteryYour Cycle Decoded — Free Classhttps://www.moonbabymagic.com/yourcycledecodedWork with Natalie 1:1 — Book a Free Discovery Callhttps://calendly.com/moonbabymagic/15minconnectioncallFollow Natalie on Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/natalie.marieclaire

Samantha lost her period for two years after coming off birth control in 2020. She was struggling with disordered eating, dissociated from her body, carrying a lot of sexual shame, and had no idea any of it was connected.Getting it back led her to Chinese herbs, then to eating a lot more, then eventually to becoming a root cause functional hormone specialist who works with high functioning women who are burnt out and depleted... and wondering why nothing is working.We talk about her theory of "energy leaks ", why the nervous system has to come before any protocol will stick, and the inner child work that she says is her favorite part of everything she does.Plus her first bleed came while she was dress shopping for her bat mitzvah. We both agreed that was not a coincidence and pretty epic.In this episode…00:00 Welcome to Moon Baby Magic00:38 Newsletter and Free Class01:35 Meet Sam and Episode Preview02:44 Cycle Check In and Life Phase07:16 First Period Memories09:38 Tampons and Period Taboo14:18 Teen Years and Birth Control16:25 Losing Her Period and Root Causes27:05 Getting the Bleed Back30:26 Building a Hormone Practice33:30 Testing and Inner Child Work41:31 Healing Needs Safety43:07 Energy Leaks Framework48:13 Testing Patterns Insights59:29 Moon Signs 01:02:14 Supplements 01:05:18 Womb Wisdom01:08:32 Where To Find SamA new episode is released every Wednesday, so go ahead and subscribe for your new favorite ritual.

I spent YEARS having no idea that certain habits of mine were making my period cramps worse and making me question my life every premenstrual phase. In case nobody has told you, YOU DESERVE BETTER.

Nobody really talks about what it feels like to be in your early 40s and not quite know who you're becoming.In this episode, I sit down with Lyssandra, a nutritionist, herbalist, and women's health educator in Los Angeles who is 41 and right in the thick of her early perimenopause. We talk about her first bleed, losing her period for a full year in her late 20s from stress and being in the wrong relationship, getting hot flashes the second she turned 40, and the brain blips that have been showing up lately that nobody warned her about.We also get into why perimenopause is basically just an extended luteal phase of life, the full moon gatherings she's hosting in Echo Park for women 40 and over, and the quote that I'm still thinking about: at menarche a girl meets her power, through her cycling years she practices it, and at menopause she becomes it.In this episode…00:00 Podcast Welcome06:03 Cycle Day Check In09:25 Perimenopause Becoming11:48 First Period Story18:35 Birth Control Shift20:26 Losing Period From Stress22:15 Healing Path Into Syncing27:03 Perimenopause As Luteal29:03 Power Boundaries In 40s32:13 Limbo Life Stage34:32 Hot Flashes at 4035:48 Herbal Relief Toolkit36:38 Anxiety and Brain Blips39:47 Manifesting Peace42:33 Women on the Verge Circles46:09 Anger as Clearing50:25 Childfree Identity Shift57:39 Rest Over Routines01:04:45 Cycle Wisdom and Advocacy01:12:17 Heart Led Womb Wisdom01:14:45 Offerings and FarewellA new episode is released every Wednesday, so go ahead and subscribe for your new favorite ritual.

Some of my thyroid symptoms have been creeping back up this summer. Lower temps, afternoon energy dips, a little bloating, forgetting why I walked into a room.And if you know my story, you know I've spent three summers in a row freaking out about exactly this. This summer I'm doing something different.I'm sharing what's popping up, why I think it's happening, and how I'm actually navigating it without spiraling — because symptoms coming back doesn't mean you're starting over. It just means your body is asking for something.This is a short one, but a personal one!In this episode…00:00 Welcome to Moon Baby Magic00:44 Thyroid Symptoms Return02:42 Hashimoto’s Backstory04:05 Signs to Watch For07:17 Why Summer Triggers Flares08:55 Don’t Freak Out Mindset10:55 Back to Basics Plan12:45 Sleep Fun and Balance16:06 Support Systems and Mentors19:25 Softening Into Healing19:59 Closing and Next StepsA new episode is released every Wednesday, so go ahead and subscribe for your new favorite ritual.

Tori never really had bad periods. But after her first baby, her cycle became almost effortless.And when she started to understand why, it reframed everything she thought she knew about what birth actually does to a woman's body.In this episode we get into the TCM reason birth heals period pain and stagnation, what it's like to bleed as a mother of a newborn and a toddler, and one of my favorite moments in this whole episode — the day Tori's four-year-old looked at her period underwear and said "ew, yucky blood," and what Tori said back to her.We also talk about her two births — a home birth in Copenhagen where she realized how much she deferred to the authority in the room, and a free birth in California where she birthed an 11-pound baby standing over the toilet in four hours with no tear and no drama.Plus the women's village she's building in Sonoma County and her vision for what it looks like when maidens, mothers, and crones actually show up for each other.In this episode…(your timestamps here)Follow Tori on Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/birth_into_clarity/Follow Natalie on Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/natalie.marieclaireWork with Natalie 1:1 — Book a Free Discovery Callhttps://calendly.com/moonbabymagic/15minconnectioncallYour Cycle Decoded — Free Classhttps://www.moonbabymagic.com/yourcycledecoded

Most nutrition advice treats your body like it's the same every day. It's not.You move through four completely different hormonal environments every single month  and what your body needs nutritionally in each one is genuinely different. Eating the same way all month is like wearing a winter coat in summer. It just doesn't fit.In this episode I'm breaking down exactly what to eat in each phase of your cycle and why — from blood-building foods during your bleed to the antioxidants your body needs at ovulation to the complex carbs that will actually save your luteal phase.Practical, simple, and deeply impactful.In this episode…00:00 Why Cycle Eating Matters00:43 Podcast Welcome01:22 Episode Setup and Update02:27 Cyclical Eating Basics04:26 Menstrual Phase Foods06:07 Follicular Phase Fuel08:11 Ovulation Support Foods09:46 Luteal Phase PMS Nutrition12:05 Simple Action Steps13:12 Free Class and Wrap Up14:05 Outro and Next WeekA new episode is released every Wednesday, so go ahead and subscribe for your new favorite ritual.

Savannah's first bleed story starts with her mom looking at the toilet paper and saying "oh, fuck."Her pregnancy test. Same thing. "Oh, fuck."She never put that together until we were sitting here recording. And that's kind of what this whole episode is - a woman finally connecting the dots of her own story and realizing how deep the wound of unprotected womanhood actually runs.Savannah Dew is a doula in Central Texas, and she has one of the most extraordinary life stories I have ever had the honor of holding space for. We talk about growing up without a father, a first bleed with no reverence, an unplanned pregnancy at 21, and then the stillbirth of her son Ambroise — and the 26 hours she spent with him that she describes as the most love she has ever felt in her life.We also talk about free birth, what it actually means to feel protected as a woman, the matriarchal wound she can trace back six generations, and how she finally found God in the room where her baby was gone.In this episode…Follow Savannah on Instagramhttps://www.instagram.com/la.dewla/Your Cycle Decoded — Free 90-Minute Classhttps://www.moonbabymagic.com/yourcycledecodedMenstrual Cycle Mastery Coursehttps://www.moonbabymagic.com/menstrualcyclemasteryFollow Natalie on Instagram⁠https://www.instagram.com/natalie.marieclaire
