Inside FLARE: The Art of Endo

SummaryWelcome to the very first episode of Inside FLARE — Flourish in Life through Art and Resources for EndometriosisIn this episode, I’m taking you behind the scenes of not just , but — the messy, honest, emotional, sometimes chaotic reality of living with endometriosis and building something meaningful in the middle of it.We talk a little about my surgery, the moments that broke me, the ones that rebuilt me, and how FLARE was born out of all of it — not as a brand, but as a lifeline.A space where art meets pain, where creativity becomes more than just coping, and where no one has to feel alone in what they’re going through.Also — full transparency — I’m currently recovering from a major surgery while recording this, so if my energy feels a little softer than usual… that’s why. We’re honoring the “in progress” version of me here, not the polished one.This episode is real, a little unfiltered, a little emotional, and honestly… kind of the foundation for everything that’s about to come.If you’ve ever felt misunderstood, overwhelmed, or like your body has rewritten your life without your permission — you’re not alone.And you’re exactly where you’re supposed to be.TakeawaysPriscilla, host and founder of FLARE, shares her personal journey with endometriosis.FLARE aims to create a supportive community for those affected by endometriosis and chronic illness.Art can be a powerful tool for healing and expression.Priscilla encourages artists to share their experiences through their work.The podcast serves as a platform for voices often unheard.Community building is essential for those dealing with chronic illness.Priscilla's vision includes an art show to raise awareness about endometriosis.She acknowledges the challenges of discussing her condition on social media.The importance of honesty in the creative process is highlighted.Priscilla is excited about future collaborations and connections.
