Struggling with endometriosis or feeling lost while searching for better answers and support? In today’s episode, Megan Swan welcomes Juliet Oliver, engineer and founder of Endo45, to share her journey from years of misdiagnosis and chronic pain to thriving with endometriosis and empowering thousands through technology and holistic tools.


Key Points Discussed:

  • Endometriosis Reality: The delay in diagnosis, with most women waiting up to a decade, and why sufferers often feel dismissed or gaslit in the traditional medical system.

  • Taking Health Into Your Own Hands: Juliet’s transformation from chronic pain to vibrant health by reverse engineering her own remission, and the shortcomings of conventional "Band-Aid" medicine.

  • Holistic Habits That Help: Simple, science-backed changes like reducing caffeine, purging endocrine disruptors from your environment, and addressing nutrient deficiencies (especially zinc) that can make a real difference in endometriosis management.

  • Community & Evidence-Based Support: Why finding credible information and supportive resources—beyond the noise of social media—is vital, and how Endo45’s app brings these pieces together in an accessible way.

  • The EndoFit Score: How tracking holistic habits helps users see gradual, real progress, stay motivated, and gain agency over their health journey, even while awaiting diagnosis or treatment.

  • Advocating for Yourself: Practical advice on communicating symptoms to healthcare providers, pursuing specific diagnostic tests, and insisting on care that aligns with your personal fertility and health goals.


TLDR: Healing from endometriosis is possible through small, powerful lifestyle changes and by advocating for yourself. You’re not alone—communities and tech-backed tools like Endo45 can provide guidance, motivation, and real hope for women everywhere.

Are You A Charlotte?

Are You A Charlotte?

In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
