WINE! podcast is a weekly conversation with practitioners, providers, patients & healers about complex reproductive medicine & women's health challenges, the value of an integrative approach to these challenges, many of the women's health topics you're already thinking about & uncomfortable talking about & my personal favorite... WINE!Endometriosis Awareness takes place across the globe during the month of March with a mission to raise awareness of a condition that affects an estimated 200 million people, about 1 in 10 women, worldwide. Endometriosis is an inflammatory condition where tissue, similar to the endometrial tissue that lines of the uterus, grows outside of the uterus.The pain of endometriosis can be devastatingly debilitating and it is the leading cause of fertility challenges in women as it carries a huge personal and societal burden.  As such, this month we'll be talking about everything endometriosis including the importance of having an "endo"specialist (not merely your gynecologist) on your team, endometriosis and the microbiome (how diet affects endometriosis), the "endo" myths, the multidisciplinary "endo"-individual approach to self-care, "endo" and relationships, "endo" and pain perception, the surgical intervention aspect of "endo", and "endo" plus fertility challenges... ALL FROM THE PERSPECTIVE OF A PERSON LIVING WITH AN ENDOMETRIOSIS DIAGNOSIS. Yellow is universally known to be the color for endometriosis awareness so when you see someone wearing a yellow ribbon, an awareness tool, ask them about endometriosis. You'll be surprised at what you learn.About our guest:Tiffany Davis Nazaire, MSN, RN-BC is from Birmingham, AL and has lived in Baltimore, MD for thirteen years.  She holds a Bachelors degree in Nursing from Auburn University (War Eagle!), a Masters degree in Nursing Informatics, and holds three additional board certifications.
