008: What’s it like living with endometriosis? with Georgia Martin

In this episode, Julia interviews her 1:1 client Georgia, who has been diagnosed endometriosis since middle school. They discuss Georgia's journey with the condition, the impact it has had on her life, and how she manages it. Endometriosis is a common - yet often misunderstood - condition, so this episode serves as a way to highlight what the experience has been like for one person, to hopefully give all listeners a deeper understanding of it - in the case they have family members, friends, or acquaintances who have experienced it.They also touch on the importance of understanding and supporting those with endometriosis, as well as the need for better healthcare and conversations around period pain when it comes to women's health, which has historically been fairly neglected by scientific research. The conversation highlights the need for early diagnosis, finding the right medical care, and the importance of self-care and stress management in managing the condition.Not sponsored, but here's the company that Georgia mentions: somedaysTimestamps00:00 Introduction and Background06:27 Understanding Endometriosis: Causes and Symptoms09:17 Challenges in Diagnosing Endometriosis11:33 Supporting Those with Endometriosis: Mental Health and Relationships16:50 Triggers and Stress Management for Endometriosis19:28 Self-Care and Support for Those with Endometriosis24:12 Supporting Clients with Endometriosis: Advocacy and Empowerment28:37 The Importance of Medical Care for Endometriosis31:56 Resources and Recommendations for Endometriosis36:41 Appreciating Your Body and Finding Strength with Endometriosis41:01 Closing Thoughts and Call to Action🧡 Shift to Shed: 3 Day FREE Challenge: Sign up HERE🍋 Apply for 1:1 private coaching: HERE 🍿 Let's be IG friends: @eatmorewithjulia
