When living with a chronic illness like endometriosis, just making it through each day can feel like a battle.
The crippling cramps, heavy and often painful periods, and constant fatigue can wear down even the strongest.
If you're tired of chasing treatments with minimal relief, this episode offers a much-needed pause and a spark of hope.
I sat down with The Chronic Illness Coach Alex Morris, who understands chronic illness quite well after an endometriosis diagnosis at 18 derailed her young adult life. In this episode, Alex busts common endometriosis myths, shares frustrations with limited management options like birth control and surgery, and provides hopeful insights on achieving your goals despite being diagnosed with a chronic health condition.
Discover how to become your own health advocate and unlock the path to a happier, pain-free life.
