This EndoLife
From the best surgery to natural therapies, This EndoLife Podcast empowers you to live and thrive with endometriosis and its co-conditions through a holistic, functional medicine approach. I’m covering all the topics that often aren’t discussed in the doctor’s office, whether that’s how to eat well for endometriosis, how to treat the endo belly or just what exactly is SIBO? Come join myself (and my guests!) as we dive into anti-inflammatory nutrition, gut health, hormones, pain science, mental health, sex, energy and living life well with endo.

How to Optimise Digestion for Less Endo Belly 21.04.2024 25:48
Today we’re doing another clip from my course, Live and Thrive with Endo 2.0 as I am still getting over covid and what has turned out to be several of the most stressful days I’ve ever experienced (more on that another time). During the past couple of days, I’ve not had access to the internet and so I wasn’t able to share that the course doors were closing for enrolment or even actually close the...
Your Brain, Pain and the Vagus Nerve 13.04.2024 35:25
Today I have an exciting episode for you! I’m still full of covid or flu, on top of preparing for my course Live and Thrive with Endo 2.0 which begins on Monday, and packing to take our rescue kitten back to the UK - today! So, there’s a lot going on - no wonder I got sick! So, instead of doing a replay episode, I thought I’d give you a peak into what I’m woking on in my course, and so today, I am...
Stuck With Endo? Here’s Your Roadmap 06.04.2024 1:27:28
So today, as you’ll be able to hear in this intro, I am pretty damn sick, so I cannot record a full episode for you. Instead, I am sharing my recent free masterclass, Creating a Roadmap for Endo Healing. For this masterclass, you’re going to need to get comfy and grab a note book and a pen because we’re literally going to be designing your endo management plan. This masterclass is much better when...
My Number One Endo Management Strategy 29.03.2024 18:30
Okay so today I am taking my IG Live series to the podcast, because for the life of me, I cannot get my IG Lives to not have that strange ticking/buzzing sound in the background! So, I thought it would be better to answer the questions I’ve had submitted here. Today I am answering “What is the number one thing to manage endometriosis?” Read more. If you’re feeling overwhelmed by your symptoms, all...

Endo Q&A: How to Manage Endo Fatigue and Brain Fog 25.03.2024 35:53
As part of Endometriosis Awareness Month I’m answering your questions over on IG live and I get a really good response when I share these on the podcast last as well! So, that’s what this week’s episode is. Just a heads up, I’m not sure why but the IG Live recording has a weird buzzing, ticking sound, which we’ve tried to remove, but you may still hear it a little. So, this week I’m answering: “Ho...
Endo Q&A: Birth Control, Period Flu, Hysterectomies and Painful Sex 15.03.2024 56:07
As part of Endometriosis Awareness Month I’m answering your questions over on IG live and I get a really good response when I share these on the podcast last as well!

High and Low Oestrogen Levels and How to Test Correctly 09.03.2024 26:48
This week we’re staying on our theme of hormone testing and we’re looking at oestrogen. There are a number of signs to look out for with oestrogen dominance or excess, and they pretty much all fall under the PMS umbrella, but here are a few tale-tell signs that I often see with clients. If you’ve noticed symptoms of hormonal imbalances but you’d like some help working it out all out, I wanted to l...
Low Progesterone Signs and How to Test 01.03.2024 23:29
(Trigger warning: This episode discusses infertility) Okay so this week we’re moving onto hormones and how to test for them. Today, we’re beginning with one that I see a lot of my clients having problems with and that’s low progesterone. I did a progesterone 101 a year or two ago which covered everything from what progesterone is, to what it does in the body and signs of it being too low or too hi...
Low Folate and Endometriosis 23.02.2024 24:03

Low B12 and Endometriosis 16.02.2024 26:45
A week or two ago and I did an episode about low vitamin D levels and the symptoms that can disguise themselves as endo symptoms or endo related issues, and today, I want to talk about low B12 and how it can affect our population. So, let’s get straight to it and look at common B12 symptoms and how we may mistake them for endo problems… Read more. Need more help or want to learn how to work with m...
REPLAY: What is The Menstrual Cycle and How to Know If Yours is Healthy 09.02.2024 27:07
Today’s episode is a replay as I have been in and out of hospital all week undergoing testing for coeliac disease and chronic appendicitis. As you can imagine, these appointments have eaten into both my time and energy, so I am resharing an old episode today! One that I think provides you with a great foundations for the rest of the year. Today I am resharing my episode about what you should look...
Signs You’re Low in Vitamin D and How it Affects Endo 02.02.2024 18:37
Recently, I’ve had a lot of low levels or deficiencies show up with clients. Many of them were experiencing low moods, cyclical pain or heavy menstrual bleeding, fatigue, heart palpitations, aching muscles, and overall feelings of inflammation. Whilst yes, these can all be due to or linked to endometriosis, we have to be careful about blaming everything on endo and not investigating these kind of...
Why Your Endo May Be Worse in January 26.01.2024 24:41
Today’s episode is continuing with the theme of why some of your conditions may be worse in January, and today, we’re focusing on endometriosis. Before we get into it, this is a short episode where I am giving you an overview of some of the ways these things can affect people with endo, but it’s not an exhaustive list. In fact, each of these topic areas could have their own episode with a deep div...
Why Your PMDD May Be Worse in January 19.01.2024 30:41
It’s a New Year and perhaps you’re feeling the pressure to get up and go, but you can’t get yourself out of bed. Maybe you’re in more pain than usual, perhaps you’re more depressed than usual or maybe you’re experiencing extreme fatigue and energy crashes? If this is you, please know you’re not alone. As I return to work, I’ve received many emails from endometriosis clients telling me their sympto...
REPLAY: New Year Meditation for Endometriosis 12.01.2024 34:28
With a new year beginning, I am resharing a very old meditation episode. This episode is a visualisation meditation to help you envision how you want to feel in 2024. I use this visualisation exercise with every one of my clients, to help them see the big picture they want for their health and then to take that big picture and break it down into small, attainable goals. I also use this meditation...
Signs You’re Low in Iron and What to Look For on Blood Tests 04.01.2024 15:13
I am seeing a bit of a growing trend with my clients and students – and that’s low iron levels. But they’re not alone. Iron deficiency or low iron levels are extremely common, in fact, iron deficiency anaemia is the most common nutritional deficiency in the world, with menstruators being one of the most affected groups. The problem with this, is that low iron levels are often disregarded as not a...
REPLAY: Aamina's Story: Overcoming Ovulation Pain, Leg Pain, Nausea and Vomiting with Endo 28.12.2023 30:51
This festive season, I wanted to reshare a good news story for those of you suffering with pain and symptoms over the Christmas or New Year holidays, or for whatever reason, struggle with this time of year. I know sometimes it can feel hopeless, and that’s why I love to share these client stories: because they offer hope, they show us what’s possible, they give us faith. In this conversation, Aami...
How to Minimise Sugar Impact This Festive Season 21.12.2023 14:36
The Christmas season is typically, a time of excess for those who celebrate – and even for those who don’t, New Year’s is right around the corner. For many people, we increase our intake of sugar, alcohol, processed foods, etc. and that’s okay – this episode isn’t about judgement. I love Christmas, including all the food that comes with it, but for many of us, the result can be more pain and a wor...
How to Minimise Alcohol Impact This Festive Season 14.12.2023 11:53
Today I want to talk about alcohol and the holiday season. I think most of us listening will be increasing alcohol intake over the new few weeks, and the reality is, alcohol does have an impact on our hormones and inflammation levels, setting the stage for lower progesterone levels, increased oestrogen levels and more inflammation. These can all result in more PMS, more oestrogen dominant symptoms...
Why I Don’t Recommend Rushing Into an Elimination Diet for Endo 08.12.2023 13:50

If you’re after more information, I’ve linked to some further reading in the show notes. Today I want to do a bite size episode on elimination diets – specifically, why I don’t recommend rushing into them straight away. Read more. Show notes: https://www.theendobellycoa...
Low Stomach Acid and Endometriosis: Four Common Symptoms 01.12.2023 11:06
Today is a super quick episode, as I wanted to give you guys a bit more of a bite size one as I know some of you have been loving those. And just a reminder, these bitesize episodes are not heavy and full of information and research, but I will link to a couple of extra episodes for further information if you want to do a deeper dive. So today, I want to talk about stomach acid and endometriosis....
REPLAY: Sarah's Story - From Full Body Pain and Fatigue to a Full Life with Energy 25.11.2023 32:42
Today’s episode is a replay for two reasons. Firstly, we’ve been on the road for four days heading to Italy so I’ve not been able to record a new episode this week, and secondly, I’m having a Black Friday Course Bundle Sale, and so if you’re wondering whether these courses could help you, I thought I’d share a success story from one of my course students. Before we head to the episode, I wanted to...
How to Manage Your Endo and Take Action During a Humanitarian Crisis 17.11.2023 29:15
Today’s episode is one I’ve been mulling over for a while. The situation between Israel and Palestine has divided the world, and I didn’t want to add my voice to just basically add another voice into the chaos. I wanted to do something that felt useful and relevant - and so today’s episode, is part of that. Today I want to talk about ways to manage a humanitarian crisis when you’re already sufferi...
Listener Question: How Do I Reduce Endo Belly Bloating? 10.11.2023 24:24
Okay, so this week’s listener question is “How do I reduce bloating in the moment?”. So, this person is looking for short-term strategies for when bloating kicks in. Now, before I answer this, what I want us to consider is why the bloating is happening in the first place. There is always a root cause and so the key to long-term relief with the endo belly, is to work out the root cause of your endo...
