The Only Endometriosis Podcast You Need

In this episode, I reflect on the first full two-week stretch after moving to fortnightly sessions. The first half of the fortnight felt steady. Energy was good, inflammation stable, pain levels consistent. Nothing dramatic and that in itself is something worth noticing. Then, around day six, bloating and inflammation began to rise again. Not a collapse. Not a crisis. Just signals. This episode is...

This episode marks a grounded point of arrival within my healing journey - not an ending, but a calm check-in from inside the process. My period arrived, and I share what unfolded with care and curiosity. As the bleed progressed, it shifted into healthy, fresh red blood. On day three, I noticed dark, structured, stretchy tissue - often described as “clots”, but not actually clots at all. I explore...

This episode explores what happens in the body when something deeply right arrives alongside increased demand — and how expansion can affect symptoms just as much as stress. I share the story of opening my new clinic space, an idea that arrived suddenly in early December and unfolded with surprising clarity. While the clinic appeared to close over Christmas, there was significant activity behind t...

Episode 4.4 - Betwixtmas: When the Body Needs Quiet and the World Wants Performance In this episode, I reflect on the often-overlooked impact of the Christmas and New Year period on women living with endometriosis and chronic symptoms - a time that asks us to be cheerful, present, sociable and energetic, even when our bodies are quietly asking for calm, space and less. After closing the clinic ove...

This bonus episode steps out of the week-by-week timeline to reflect on what this client journey has revealed over the last few weeks. Rather than focusing on improvement or outcomes, I explore the quieter truths that have emerged so far: what happened to the podcast schedule and what I have taken from this. This episode weaves together themes of rest, expansion, anxiety, immunity and timing — and...

Episode 3 - The Test Results: Relief, Confusion, and a Path Forward The day the results came in - and then came in again five hours later with a missing bit added. Inside this episode I walk you through the initial findings from my test results and the emotional shifts that followed: relief, confusion, clarity, and a sense of empowerment. I chat about my next steps and possible decision around sur...

In this episode I share the very real moment where things shifted from panic to clarity. That moment we all know too well - when the symptoms ease just enough that you can think again. I talk about: The power of specific goals instead of vague wellness intentions. “Move more” becomes seven hours of gentle movement a week . “Drink more” becomes two litres of water each day . Why running was off the...

The Starting Line – Walking My Endometriosis Recovery in Real Time In this first episode of a brand-new, deeply personal series, I’m sharing where my body is right now — honestly, gently, and without bravado. After a recent GP visit and scan, it’s become clear that my endometriosis is active again. My right ovary is blocked and fluid-filled, there are signs of bowel involvement, and there’s also a...

In this fiery and heartfelt episode, I’m speaking directly to the women who feel like they’ve “tried everything” to manage their endometriosis naturally — but are still stuck, exhausted, and considering surgery as their only option. Spoiler: it’s not your fault. But if you're relying on restrictive diets, random supplements, or “influencer advice” that doesn’t reflect the reality of your complex c...

We talk so much about “showing up” — in work, relationships, healing, even self-care. But what happens when your body is screaming for rest? When pain makes everything feel heavy and foggy? When “pushing through” just isn’t possible? In this episode, I’m opening up about the invisible weight of chronic pain, and the internal battle between who we want to be and what our bodies can actually handle....

So many women are living with symptoms they’ve been told are “just part of being a woman” — but what if there’s more going on?

In this honest and heart-led episode, I’m sharing why I haven’t recorded for a while — and why that’s okay. We’ll explore how managing your health (especially with hormonal challenges) means managing your energy, how boundaries can shift even when you wish they wouldn’t, and how the pressure to “keep showing up” can feel like too much.

In this episode, I dive into the recent announcement about the UK’s new endometriosis pill, Ryeqo — what it is, how it works, and why I have mixed feelings about it. While this new treatment offers some benefits, it’s still just another way of managing symptoms rather than truly addressing the root cause. I also share my thoughts on why this approach can feel frustrating — and why so many women ar...

We hear it everywhere: "Self-care is non-negotiable!" But what if that phrase actually makes self-care feel even more impossible? In this episode, I dive into why this kind of messaging can trigger guilt, overwhelm, and even fear —especially for women juggling endless responsibilities or recovering from trauma. We’ll explore:✨ Why rigid self-care rules can feel like another thing on your to-do li...
