Guest Bio
Thanai Caesar is an aspiring entrepreneur, social impact advocate, and the founder of This Won’t End Me (TWEM), a nonprofit dedicated to raising awareness and fostering creative spaces for individuals affected by endometriosis. Originally from the UK and now based in Canada, Thanai has spent over a decade working in advocacy, case management, and community engagement, supporting at-risk youth, survivors of exploitation, and individuals navigating complex social systems. Her expertise in youth development, violence prevention, and social justice has shaped her ability to create impactful programs that empower and uplift marginalized communities.
Now, as the driving force behind TWEM, Thanai is channeling her passion for advocacy into the fight for better education, research, and support for those living with endometriosis. Through creative initiatives—including guided art experiences, a forthcoming coffee table book, and awareness-driven events—she is committed to transforming pain into power. Her mission is simple yet profound: to ensure endometriosis is seen, understood, and no longer dismissed.
