90 ~ Endometriosis, 5 Miscarriages, & Going On Shark Tank : Kellie Johnson’s Inspiring Story

from Before You Bloom · host Hayley Kinneavy

I’m joined by the courageous and compassionate Kellie, founder of Kosi, Endometriosis warrior and Shark Tank success story.Kellie opens up about her battle with stage 4 Endometriosis, which began at age 12 and led to years of being dismissed, misdiagnosed, and told her pain was "just period pain." Her journey eventually included a devastating 4-year fertility struggle, 5 heartbreaking miscarriages, and a miracle pregnancy that brought her daughter, Lola, into the world.We chat about what it’s really like living with a chronic invisible illness, how she’s learned to manage both her physical and emotional well-being, and why she created Kosi, her patented wearable heat pack designed specifically for period and pelvic pain, after years of walking around with heat packs stuffed down her pants.We dive into her proudest moment on Shark Tank and how this experience has helped her business shine!Whether you’re navigating chronic pain, fertility challenges, or just looking for inspiration to keep going, this episode will remind you that you’re not alone, and that you can turn pain into purpose.⭐As mentioned in this episode, FODBODS is a gut-friendly snack that actually tastes amazing : Use the code ⁠⁠BLOOM15⁠⁠ for 15% your order at fodbods.com⭐💗 Thank you so much for being here on this adventure with me! 💗- Hayley xo✨ Find us on Instagram: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@beforeyoubloom⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠✨🎧⭐ Follow us on :⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Apple Podcasts⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠🎧⭐ Follow us on :⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Spotify ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠The Before You Bloom Podcast is recorded on the lands of the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nation.
