Episode 07 we sit down with naturopath Amelia Botanica, who shares her personal and professional journey with endo, the importance of finding root causes, and how nutrition, herbs, and lifestyle can make a real difference. We talk fertility, pregnancy, and why gentleness with yourself is just as important as any supplement.

Endometriosis is complex and healing often takes more than one path.

Living with endometriosis can feel like being on your own little island, watching the rest of the world carry on. In this episode, we explore the many forms of isolation endo can bring the physical, emotional, medical, and social. We share real experiences, from pushing through a flare-up to be at an event but feeling miles away in your mind, to the hurtful comments that stick with you for years. We also open up about the internal thoughts we often keep hidden (“I feel like a burden,” “No one believes me”) and how to challenge them. Plus, we offer practical tips for finding your people, communicating your needs, and leaning into small daily rituals that help bring comfort and connection.

So, You have just woken up from surgery and received your diagnosis.

Suddenly, you're being offered medications, diets, supplements, specialists, meditation, acupuncture, and advice from every other person.. but you’re still trying to come to terms with the fact that you have a chronic illness.

In this episode Mim and Tarsh talk about the overwhelm that hits after surgery - the pressure to act, the guilt of not doing ‘enough’ and the grief that follows a long awaited diagnosis.

If you’ve felt lost in the noise, this is your reminder | it’s okay to pause.

You don’t need to do everything, you don’t need to do anything. All there is to do, is rest.

In this episode, our partners join us for a raw, honest, and emotional conversation about what it’s really like to be in the supporting role. Tarsh and Mim are joined by their husbands, Henry and Dane, who open up about the moments most people never hear, the helplessness of watching someone you love in pain, the guilt of being healthy, the emotional toll of cancelled plans, and the quiet strength it takes to keep showing up.

We talk about flare-ups, fertility, surgery day fears, and how endometriosis impacts not just the person living with it, but everyone around them.

Whether you're someone with endo or someone who loves them, this one is for you.

In this deeply personal and powerful episode, Mim shares her raw and unfiltered endometriosis journey, from her first symptoms at 14 to multiple surgeries, misdiagnoses, and the emotional toll of living with a chronic illness. She opens up about hospital visits that were brushed off as “just bad periods,” the heartbreak of fertility challenges, and the resilience it’s taken to keep pushing for answers.

Mim also reflects on the systemic gaps in women’s healthcare, the financial burden of treatment, the toll on her mental health, and what it means to advocate for yourself when no one else is listening. It’s honest, it’s emotional, and it’s a must-listen for anyone navigating endo or supporting someone who is.

Through the process of advocating for ourselves — pushing for answers, navigating confusion, and eventually undergoing surgery just to receive a diagnosis — we’ve felt it all.

Join us on our journey as we interview real people with real stories, experts in their field and how they can enhance your quality of life on your endometriosis journey.
