Welcome back to The Endo Belly Girl Podcast! In this heartfelt solo episode, I drop the science and steps to dive into an honest, compassionate conversation I wish someone had with me when I was struggling the most.
If you're feeling flared up, exhausted, or just emotionally worn down by endo right now, this episode is here to let you know: you are not broken, and you are not alone.
In today’s episode, you’ll hear:
- My personal story of diagnosis, symptoms, and feeling “broken”
- Why so many of us internalize the belief that our bodies are defective or failing us—and how society and the medical system help reinforce those feelings
- The importance of feeling whole and worthy at every step of your health journey
- How to reframe symptoms as communication from your body, not a punishment
- Honest talk about the frustration, shame, and guilt that can creep into our thoughts—and how to counteract them with kindness and curiosity
- The impact of changing how we speak about and to our bodies, both out loud and in our minds
- Why healing isn’t linear, and how focusing on consistent, compassionate action (the inputs) can be more powerful than obsessing over outcomes
- Real-life stories that show persistence, patience, and hope pay off—even if the journey looks different than we expect
If you’ve ever felt alone or like your healing isn’t happening “fast enough,” this episode is a must-listen.
