What an honor and privilege it was to set up a table at Yale’s Women’s Mental Health Conference yesterday.
In 2013, PMDD (Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder) was officially added to the DSM-5—the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders, which guides mental health diagnoses in the U.S.
Yesterday, I stood not only to raise awareness—but to share the truth that healing is possible.
Thank you to Marybeth Sutter Bohn, Angie Nuñez, and Yale School of Medicine for the warm welcome and for holding space for the stories that often go unheard.
It was a powerful and moving day as we lifted the collective voice for women’s mental health.
This is how change begins—one conversation, one connection, one courageous step at a time.
🤍We are not just surviving—we are remembering who we are.
🍕And added bonus, when you find yourself in New Haven, you have to go home with a pie!
