96: Deep Hidden Stressors with Misty Williams


Listen Later

Endometriosis is a very serious and painful illness impacting women’s lives, but it’s still underdiagnosed and largely under-researched by doctors. Misty Williams joins me to talk about her own health journey with endometriosis, what she’s learned navigating this illness, and how she became a persistent advocate for her own health. Misty also helps other women become persistent advocates for themselves!

 

Symptoms of Endometriosis

  1. Prolonged, Heavy Periods
  2. Extremely Painful Cramps
  3. Weight Gain
  4. Fatigue
  5. Brain Fog
  6. Epstein-Barr Virus
  7. Sleep Issues
  8.  

    About Misty Williams

    Misty Williams spent years struggling to reclaim her health and vitality after a brain fog and fatigue tailspin from life-threatening complications from surgery to remove an ovarian cyst. 

    Afterward, her doctor told her she had endometriosis. The only remedies were drugs and surgery, her labs were “normal,” and she could “google” to learn more about what was happening to her body.

    At 35 years old, Misty started fighting for her quality of life, enduring many more challenges on her road to healing, including an unexplained 45-lb weight gain, debilitating brain fog, fatigue, hypothyroidism, and premature ovarian failure. 

    She founded HealingRosie.com to provide high-performing women with the resources and community to successfully confront the unexpected chronic health issues that women often experienced as they age.
