The Educate & Empower Podcast Episode 15. Brianna’s Story: Living with Endometriosis & Navigating Pregnancy

In this powerful episode of The Educate & Empower Podcast, Bec sits down with her PA, Brianna, who bravely opens up about her personal journey with Endometriosis and her current pregnancy.

Endometriosis is a disease in which tissue similar to the lining of the uterus grows outside the uterus. While it’s most commonly found in the pelvic region, it has been discovered on every major organ in the body. It can cause severe pain, fertility challenges, and deeply impact a person's quality of life. It’s more common than many realise—affecting 1 in 7 people.

Bri shares when she first noticed symptoms, the long road to diagnosis, her experience with surgeries, and how she has navigated life and work with this chronic condition. She also opens up about the emotional and physical journey of falling pregnant with Endo and the reality of pregnancy after living with years of pain.

This episode is a must-listen for anyone living with Endometriosis, supporting someone who is, or simply wanting to understand this often-misunderstood condition.
