Episode 11: Parenting with PMDD with Melanie Boole

In this insightful guest episode, I’m joined by Melanie Boole, a Hypnotherapist and the founder of PMDD Revolution, who specialises in helping women navigate Premenstrual Dysphoric Disorder (PMDD).

PMDD is so much more than ‘just bad PMS’ - it’s a severe and often debilitating condition that affects mood, energy, and daily life. We talk about:

✨ What PMDD actually is and how it differs from PMS

✨ The causes of PMDD and what’s happening in the brain and body

✨ How it impacts women’s relationships, work and mental health

✨ The coil, PMDD + histamine and trauma

✨ Effective ways to manage and heal from PMDD

If you or someone you love struggles with intense emotional and physical symptoms in the lead-up to their period, this episode is a must-listen.

Dr. Gabor Maté’s says that 80% of autoimmune diseases affect women - and people-pleasing is a major factor. Suppressed anger, self-sacrifice, and the pressure to always "hold it together" take a serious toll on your body and mind. Mums in particular are so conditioned to be doing it all and this needs to change.

In this episode, we’ll explore:
✨ The link between people-pleasing & chronic stress
✨ Why suppressed anger isn’t bad - it’s a signal
✨ How to release guilt, set boundaries & protect your energy

It’s time to break free from burnout and reclaim your emotional well-being. Listen now! 🎧

In this episode, we’re tackling a big topic - discipline. More specifically, how to set boundaries for our children without using shame.

So many of us were raised to believe that discipline meant punishment, fear, or guilt - but what if discipline could be something entirely different? What if it was about guidance, respect, and connection?

Today, we’ll explore:
✅ The true meaning of discipline (hint: it’s not about control!)
✅ Why boundaries make children feel safer, not restricted
✅ How to hold kids accountable without shaming them
✅ Practical strategies for setting firm, loving boundaries

And before we wrap up, I share about how shame silently holds us back in ways we don’t even realise.

If you’ve ever struggled with feeling guilty after setting limits, worried about being “too strict” or “too soft,” or just want to discipline in a way that builds connection rather than fear - this episode is for you.

Episode 8: Hypnosis for Anxiety

Welcome back to The Rewire & Thrive Podcast! I’m your host, Laura Styles - Clinical Hypnotherapist, Mindset Coach, and mum of boys.

Today’s episode is a chance to release anxiety, rewire at a subconscious level and step into ease and flow. Please note that this was created as a generic audio for my audience but if it resonates, I advise you listen for 30 days to notice a real difference. It's all about the repetition!

✨ Important: This is a hypnosis audio, designed to be listened to in a quiet, relaxed space where you won’t be disturbed. Please don’t listen while driving or doing anything that requires your full attention. Instead, find a cosy spot, pop in your headphones, and give yourself permission to fully receive this practice. Before sleep at bedtime would be ideal.

By the end of this session, you’ll feel lighter, calmer, and more at peace with yourself as a mother. You deserve this. 💛

Welcome to Episode 5 of Rewire & Thrive! 🎉

This episode is a little different - shorter, off-the-cuff and recorded while my kids were at home during half term 🥴. We’re keeping it real today as I share a little about the impact that stress has on sleep and belly fat (from a brilliant book I am currently reading).

Plus, my 8-year-old son joins me for a little chat, giving us a glimpse into his cute little mind as I ask him some big life questions. His answers? Very insightful! ✨

Tune in for a heartwarming episode that blends practical wisdom with the magic of seeing the world through a child’s eyes.

Episode 3: Overcoming School Avoidance with Jodie Jones🎙️

This week, I’m joined by our very first guest - Jodie Jones from Nurture Infused Parenting! Jodie is a passionate parenting coach with a background in teaching and SEN education advisory. But her biggest lessons didn’t come from the classroom - they came from her own personal growth & conscious parenting journey.

Jodie's son struggled with anxiety related school avoidance so much that he was placed on a part-time timetable, and Jodie had to step away from her job to support him. What followed was a deeply personal journey of resilience, healing, and transformation. What we dived into:

✨ How Jodie navigated the emotional and practical challenges of school avoidance
 ✨ The school system and strategies that helped her son regain confidence
 ✨ Jodie's golden nuggets of wisdom that parents who are going through this can take away

We also explore:
 🔹 Why school anxiety is more than just “not wanting to go”
 🔹 The impact of nervous system regulation in both parents and children
 🔹 Practical steps to create a supportive environment at home

Jodie’s story is one of hope, empowerment, and the power of conscious parenting. If your child is struggling with school, or you simply want to understand more about anxiety and learning, this episode is for you.
