Don't Just Survive, Thrive!
They told me it was normal, i knew it wasn't
I was in my twenties when the pain started.
It wasn’t occasional. It wasn’t mild. It was the kind of pain that rearranges your whole day around it. I went to doctors and I got the same answer over and over: it’s normal. It’s part of being a woman.
But I knew my body. I’d lived in it my whole life. And I knew this was not normal.
So I kept asking. I kept pushing. And eventually I got an answer: several uterine fibroids. One of them the size of a grapefruit.
I thought that would be the end of it. It wasn’t. Because the answer to the diagnosis was: you just have to live with it.
I reject that.
So I built my own way through
I don’t have a medical degree. I’m not a nutritionist. What I have is more than 25 years of living inside a body with fibroids and no roadmap.
So I figured it out myself.
I learned how to eat in a way that didn’t make the pain worse. How to move when movement felt impossible, and how to rest without guilt. How to breathe when every part of me wanted to clench. And the hardest one: how to tell the people around me what I actually needed, instead of saying “I’m fine” and then falling apart alone.
None of it was a cure. All of it gave me back something fibroids had taken from me — the feeling that I was in charge of my own life.
Why I do this work
Because I spent years being dismissed and alone in it, and I don’t want another woman to spend years there.
There are so many of us. Women in pain being told it’s normal. Women who know something is wrong and can’t get anyone to listen. Women who are exhausted, bleeding, bloated, and still showing up to work pretending everything is fine.
I coach because I was that woman. The things that helped me most were never offered to me by a doctor. I had to learn them slowly, on my own, in the worst moments.
You shouldn’t have to learn them alone.
