You’re doing everything right. You're eating well, taking the supplements, doing all the “right” things, but something still feels off. In this episode, I’m sharing the deeper reason why that might be happening and what finally helped me break through my own healing plateau.

We’ll explore:

• The two big camps in the healing world and why you don’t have to choose just one
• How blending functional nutrition with subconscious work changed everything for me
• Why your lingering symptoms might be emotional, not physical

This is for the woman who’s ready to support all of herself: body, mind, and spirit.

Are you tired of feeling bloated all the time and wondering whether it’s just “endo doing its thing” or something deeper with your gut? This episode is for you! Today, we’re looking into the real differences (and surprising overlaps) between endo belly and gut-related bloating. If you’ve tried all the tips, but still struggle that daily bloat, listen in!

In this episode, you’ll hear:

• What exactly “endo belly” means and why so many experience the familiar “5-months-pregnant look”
• Why endo belly often follows your cycle, but can also be unpredictable
• The gut-health-gut-connection: Why gut issues are so prevalent alongside endometriosis (hint: up to 90% of people with endo have gut-related symptoms)
• Gut-focused causes of bloating, including lack of digestive enzymes, dysbiosis, SIBO, and leaky gut
• How to spot whether your bloating has gut-related roots: from bowel changes to skin and mental health symptoms
• The confusing (and overlapping!) relationship between endo belly and IBS, including why many get misdiagnosed or have both at once
• How to tell endo belly apart from classic gut bloating
• The surprising ways hormones, particularly estrogen, and your gut are connected (especially if you deal with constipation)
• The important role your immune function and inflammation play in endo, and how it all ties back to gut health
• Why taking a holistic, functional approach is a real game-changer (and what that actually means)

Whether you’re just starting to investigate your gut, or you’re a seasoned “endo warrior” looking to fill in the missing puzzle pieces, this episode is jam-packed with practical wisdom and next steps.

Mentioned in the episode:

• Episode 76: Hidden Causes of Bloating that No One’s Talking About
• Special offer: Gut Clarity Panel

Welcome back to The Endo Belly Girl Podcast! In this heartfelt solo episode, I drop the science and steps to dive into an honest, compassionate conversation I wish someone had with me when I was struggling the most.

If you're feeling flared up, exhausted, or just emotionally worn down by endo right now, this episode is here to let you know: you are not broken, and you are not alone.

In today’s episode, you’ll hear:

• My personal story of diagnosis, symptoms, and feeling “broken”
• Why so many of us internalize the belief that our bodies are defective or failing us—and how society and the medical system help reinforce those feelings
• The importance of feeling whole and worthy at every step of your health journey
• How to reframe symptoms as communication from your body, not a punishment
• Honest talk about the frustration, shame, and guilt that can creep into our thoughts—and how to counteract them with kindness and curiosity
• The impact of changing how we speak about and to our bodies, both out loud and in our minds
• Why healing isn’t linear, and how focusing on consistent, compassionate action (the inputs) can be more powerful than obsessing over outcomes
• Real-life stories that show persistence, patience, and hope pay off—even if the journey looks different than we expect

If you’ve ever felt alone or like your healing isn’t happening “fast enough,” this episode is a must-listen.
