Oh, it's so lovely to see you.

I feel so kind of

So fond of you and your journey and where you've come from and where you were and where you are now.

And I wonder for those who maybe haven't listened to your other podcast, if you could just give a bit of background information about where we started, where we met and the early start.

What would it was like for you before you read the book and you started working with me?

Maybe give it a bit of background of what you were like physically.

Oh, it just gives me goosebumps even hearing about it again now.

It really warms my heart because I think when you're hearing

i'm hearing you talk again and like i remember how ill you are i remember you sending me a video to apply to work with me i remember i think i still have that somewhere and you were just you were bedridden and you just had your second surgery and you had so much bladder pressure and pain and it was constant you couldn't sleep you couldn't eat yeah and you were just in such a bad state and and to kind of be speaking to you now

And as you say, to be told that you were never going to have children and then like a beautiful Maddie, you know, and children.

Well, what's it like even just recounting this story now after all those years?

yeah and that's why it's such a joy to have you back on and I appreciate you taking the time to come and share this to give women hope and it's not even as you say just giving people hope it's giving people a roadmap you know all the tools because I even actually have done a roadmap now for the women that come into my programs I've actually got a written roadmap because everything's so step by step yes it is such a way because

clearly when women start working with me, they're in a lot of pain or they're a lot of distress so that, you know, they can hardly think, let alone speak.

So the information has to be drip fed in manageable ways so that you can actually absorb it, you know, in the frame of mind that you're in and also make the essential changes that need to be made.

And I think that's it.

It's quite disheartening, isn't it?

When we're all conditioned to go down the mainstream medical machine and

And there is a time and a place for the medical machine and there's some amazing things that they can do now and, you know, with transplants and accident and emergency and, you know, there's a place for it.

But with a condition like endometriosis, you know, I heard of a lady yesterday, she's going in for her ninth surgery.

And, you know, and you're just like, I know I had to have six before I had to be another way.
