"Your illness does not define you. Your strength and courage does"
Have you ever felt like you knew something was wrong with health, but everyone else including the "professionals" told you otherwise?
In this episode, I share my endo story. I talk about the medical trauma I faced as well as the imposter syndrome that crept in.
On this journey for answers and healing, I did not get everything resolved but I learned along the way that it is still important to celebrate every win, even if it seems small. I am not sure what will come next for my endo story, but I do know that many women in the endo community have had 5-9+ surgeries in their lifetime. The sad part about the lack of research is that at this point endo doesn't have a cure.
My mission is to help by sharing my story + symptoms to help spread awareness. A 10-year wait for any diagnosis is unacceptable!
