WITN x Francia Raisa: PCOS, PMDD & Pretending You’re Fine (pt.1)
from Women in The Nude Podcast
In this raw conversation, Sasha and Francia Raisa pull back the curtain on what it’s actually like to have a public career while your hormones and mental health are in chaos. Francia shares how she went from landing back-to-back hit shows to quietly falling apart: severe depression, terrifying night sweats, gut issues, PCOS, endometriosis, and PMDD that had her sobbing in her trailer between takes. They talk about body image, being a Latina in an industry obsessed with boxes and accents, and why women so often keep pushing through when everything in their body is saying stop. Part 2 goes even deeper into freezing her eggs and redefining her future.
