In this episode, Becca opens up about the trauma of living with an invisible illness, what it’s like to be dismissed by doctors, and how she finally got the surgery that changed everything.She also shares the ongoing battle she's now facing with undiagnosed period pain and PCOS — shedding light on how women's health continues to be minimized and ignored. This is a story about pain, persistence, and finally being heard.To connect with this week’s guest, you can reach out to them through: @beccasp_ on InstagramDon’t forget to subscribe, like, and share to help us continue bringing these stories to light.🔹 New episodes drop every Monday!🔹 Follow us on Instagram: @forthehayters🔹 Submit your story: [email protected]🔹 Grab some merch! beckyhayter.com🔹 A KILLR Network podcast! killrentertainment.comIf you or someone you know needs support, please visit:www.crohnscolitisfoundation.org988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline: 988lifeline.org | Call or text 988See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
