Many of my clients have difficulties with sleep: difficulty falling asleep or waking up often, or not getting enough sleep, or if they do, not getting the quality sleep they want.

If you’ve been told that Endometriosis is “all about hormones,” it’s time to rethink that narrative. Yes, hormones play a role, but they’re not the true root cause of the condition.  The real driver?
