We are joined by Heather Guidone from the CEC in an empowering conversation about:
-How far education for endometriosis has come since Heather started her journey looking up text in the library.
-What pushed and continues to be the push for Heather to advocate 
-What positive advocacy looks like
-How change will ultimately come on the shoulders of the patients and advocates.
-Communicating the core of what endometriosis is, is what needs to be a primary goal.
-The challenge in communicating what the core of endo is when Samson's theory is still the primary education in med school, governing bodies, and many publication
-Why informed consent is crucial for patients to receive care that is best for them and their bodies
-Endo has long lasting effects on our bodies, therefore it's important to improve future generation's outcomes, through advocacy.
-How we have learned to advocate for ourselves
-The progress and roadblocks that have been faced with legislation that's already in place, as well as legislation being brought to the forefront and/or passed 
- Showing compassion, grace, and kindness to those properly advocating for other endo warriors, goes a long way.
This conversation is packed with valuable conversation. We need to continue to have these conversations so true tangible change happens. Heather imparts not only her wisdom on us, but her passion to keep grinding, what feels like an impossible grind, towards a goal of better care and treatment for those with endometriosis. 
It will take all of us to incite powerful change for better care. Join us in this change!
