Transforming Pain Into Purpose The Aziza Project's Mission with Stephanie Berman

Welcome to Compassiviste Dialogues. I'm Ali, your host, and my mission with this podcast is to shed light on critical social and environmental issues worldwide, exploring avenues for positive change. ABOUT GUEST: For more than 13 years Stephanie suffered with multiple gynecologic pain generators. Eleven medical practitioners, from naturopaths, general practitioners, OBGYNs, dermatologists & physical therapists were unable to provide answers, much less relief. That all changed when she met Dr. Corey Babb at the Haven Center in Tulsa, Oklahoma. Not only is she feeling better than she has in years, but, more importantly, she has hope. Hope for a full and rewarding life without pain. That’s why she started The AZIZA Project. She wants to offer other women the same hope by connecting them with medical professionals and funding their travel and procedure expenses.
