142. Morganne Skinner: Endometriosis Awareness

March is endometriosis awareness month, and If you know me, you know I’m passionate about women’s hormonal health. That’s why I invited the wonderful Morganne Skinner onto the show to help me spread more awareness about endo. Morganne Skinner is a registered nurse, freelance nurse writer, and fertility awareness educator. Her experience with endometriosis led her to discover the wonders of fertility awareness, as it helped her get diagnosed and manage her symptoms. Now she is passionate about sharing this knowledge and life-long skill with women looking for answers.  In today's episode, we talk about... - What endometriosis is - How long it took her to be diagnosed with endometriosis - Where her endometriosis was located - How common endometriosis is - What her symptoms of endometriosis looked like - My experience with endometriosis - Why endometriosis causes pain - Why birth control isn’t the answer to reducing your symptoms - What Morganne did to help heal her endometriosis and reduce pain - Why it’s common to be exhausted when you live with endometriosis - How endometriosis impacted how she exercised - Her thoughts on using CBD for endometriosis pain - What mental health symptoms are common with endometriosis   ...and so much more!  ✨ If you loved today’s conversation, and you know someone who’d benefit from hearing it, please share it with them (even better if you share on social).  ☕️ Click here to save 10% off your Kion coffee order when you use code COURAGE at checkout.  HANGOUT WITH ME ON INSTAGRAM TODAY'S SHOW NOTES
