Have you ever felt dismissed or misunderstood when discussing your chronic pain? Ellie, an endowarrior and licensed professional counselor, addresses this important issue  as she shares her personal journey with endometriosis. We hear her firsthand experiences dealing with chronic pain and periods, and her struggles to get a diagnosis in a medical community that often overlooks these conditions. Ellie's story will inspire you, and her insights will shed light on the complexities of living with endometriosis.

Imagine living with a complex web of chronic pain, endometriosis, and eating disorders, all while trying to maintain your mental health. Ellie invites us to explore this labyrinth with her as she discusses the difficulties of managing food sensitivities, engaging in meaningful conversation with our bodies, and maintaining mental health in the face of chronic illness. We delve into the world of body grief - the grieving process for the gap between the life we envisioned for ourselves and our current reality - and how to navigate this process with grace and understanding.

But it's not just about the struggle - it's also about finding solutions. Ellie introduces us to the EndoTracker, a tool she developed to help endowarriors identify cyclical patterns and manage stressful periods. With sections dedicated to documenting body grief, it becomes a trusted companion for those living with endometriosis. We also discuss the importance of self-advocacy and support systems in managing mental health while dealing with chronic illnesses. Listen in, and join us in this empowering conversation about living and thriving with endometriosis.
