June 25, 2020 40: The Silver Linings Endometriosis Brought Me
Updated 2/2023. There are so many negative ways that endometriosis can affect our life, from living with chronic or acute pain, infertility, or fatigue, to affecting our relationships, to making it difficult to work or study or go after our dreams. But since endo can also cause us to rethink and even rebuild our life, we might find new sources of joy or figure out what really matters to us. Have you found any “silver linings” because of endo? Amy and Brittany talk about some of the good that it’s brought to our life, and how we were able to notice the good among all the challenges.

March 05, 2020 Ep32: The Way We Face Our Problems
Updated 2/2023. How many of us feel like we react to difficult situations in ways we don’t want to? They say that the only thing we can truly control in life is the way we face our problems, yet most of us feel like we have no control over our reactions at all! In this episode, Amy and Brittany talk about how to break our subconscious reactions. We give examples on how we can break and replace various types of unwanted negative thought patterns with new, wanted ways of thinking. We tell a few stories of different unwanted ways we’ve reacted to our problems, including one story which involves Amy’s menstrual blood and a celebrity!
