Heal Endometriosis Naturally With Wendy K Laidlaw

In this week's podcast, Wendy K Laidlaw discusses how women may suffer excessively when they prioritize others over themselves and at their own expense. 

'Done Being a Doormat' highlights how women teach others to treat them through actions and boundaries, defining a "doormat" as someone who accepts mistreatment without objection.

Signs of being a doormat include excessive people-pleasing, difficulty saying no, low self-esteem, and avoiding confrontation. Wendy shares her journey from chronic people-pleasing to self-care, addressing the subconscious societal expectations of women. 

The podcast discusses the need of women with endometriosis to set new boundaries and emphasises the importance of emotional well-being for healing, encouraging self-awareness and advocating for a balance between self-care and caregiving - to become a Boss of your endometriosis.

In this week's podcast I want to address a pressing issue. I recently spoke to a woman who was told by her gynaecologist that she needed a complete hysterectomy, a procedure involving the removal of her uterus and potentially ovaries. What deeply troubles me is the misinformation women receive about hysterectomies.

My own mother had a hysterectomy, and she was devastated by the outcome. She was led to believe it would be a cure-all, but it wasn't. She faced complications and even developed more endometriosis symptoms after the procedure. Many women reach out to us, seeking information, after they are often given frightening and misleading advice from others.

Your uterus and ovaries are crucial organs throughout your life, beyond just reproduction. They play a major role in hormone production and preventing conditions like osteoporosis. Yet, some doctors rush to recommend their removal without considering the long-term consequences or other natural options.

Some women are told they can keep their ovaries while removing the uterus, but this can lead to blood supply issues to the ovaries, causing them to atrophy and necessitating another surgery. Even worse, some are falsely told that not having a hysterectomy will lead to cancer, a dangerous and highly irresponsible claim.

Historically, women have been conditioned to stay silent and not question authority figures, especially in medical settings. It's crucial to understand that you have the right to take your time and make fully informed decisions about your health. These decisions are irreversible, so make sure to gather as much information as possible.

Dr. Stanley West, author of "The Hysterectomy Hoax," states that about 90% of hysterectomies are unnecessary. Surgery can often do more harm than good, posing needless risks. Surgeons too often rely on hysterectomies as a 'one-size-fits-all solution' to various conditions, from PMS to fibroids.

Even Dr. Sarah Myhill, renowned in the UK, has achieved remission in terminally ill cancer patients, demonstrating that alternatives and natural protocols exist.

I do what I do because I remember the fear and devastation I felt when pressured to have a hysterectomy (which I refused). I was scared to question doctors and felt trapped between a rock and a hard place. It's vital to empower yourself with knowledge before making any critical decisions.

I believe that most women can achieve remission by following the guidance in my book, online programs and other resources as I have done, along with hundreds of other EndoBosses.

Seek safe and expert support, but don't be swayed or react by fear. Reflect on how you cannot reinstate your precious organs once they have been removed. 

Surgery is invasive and comes with risks, so take the natural route, even though it may take time, it comes with ZERO side effects and great life long gains. It's a real opportunity for those who are ready for change and self-discovery.

Remember, you are in charge of your health and you know your body better than anyone.

We are delighted to introduce you to the delightful Cristine, coming from the beautiful country of Denmark in Europe.

Over the span of three decades, starting as young as 14, Cristine grappled with the relentless ebb and flow of menstrual agony for almost 30 years.

In her quest for relief, Cristine found herself at the mercy of the medical field, with limited options: pills or pregnancy. However, due to the presence of two 10cm cysts, she eventually felt pressure to undergo surgery and also became a mother of two. But, to her dismay, her symptoms returned with vengeance, turning her monthly cycles into an unbearable ordeal.

Desperation and determination led her to explore alternatives. Against the backdrop of medical pressure to embrace hormone replacement therapy, and alarming irresponsible scaremongering about the risk of cancer as she got older, Cristine found herself in a state of fear and anxiety, struggling to trust her own body.

Cristine's healing naturally journey began when an act of online searching brought her to Wendy's transformative book called "How I Ended My Endometriosis Naturally Without Painkillers, Drugs, or Surgery" a few years back. This book became her guiding light, helping her navigate the turbulent waters of chronic, excruciatingly painful periods and sizeable cysts. 

A pivotal question emerged for her: "Are you worthy of being pain-free and having a good life?" 

The answer, of course, was YES and the answer to this question came through her daily practise of morning journalling. It paved the way for Cristine to rediscover her sense of self, an equilibrium, and a way of escaping the confines of a rule-bound existence placed upon herself.

Over the course of several years, Cristine revisited this book for inspiration. While her journey had its share of ups, down and bumps along the way, she gradually recognized her own power to heal and her intrinsic worth in the world.

A lifelong pattern of overextending herself and prioritising others over her own needs began to shift without shame or guilt. 

The narrative she had internalised, which was one that demanded her to be perfect to receive love, gave way to a new perspective. Cristine now declares, "It's been like a QUEST, and I'm okay, and my body is completely capable of healing itself!"

From fear and resentment towards her body, she has transitioned to an appreciation of its incredible capabilities for self healing, naturally. She has learned to trust herself and her intuition, transcending pain to embrace a life FREE from endometriosis’s grip.

Cristine recognised that the ovaries symbolise creativity, the source of creation and life within oneself—an area that she embarked on improving her awareness on.

Cristine's journey offers valuable insights into rediscovering oneself, believing in one's worth, and finding a voice in this world. 

It's been a journey inward and heading ‘back home to oneself’—a path from living in fear, in denial and where self-neglect prevailed, to a place of self-love, acceptance and balance.

This transformation included reading Wendy's book many times, addressing The 5 P’s (Poisons; Produce, Products, Property, People & Past), incorporating journalling every morning, a daily meditation practise, and working on her closest relationships.

Her truly inspiring story serves as a reminder to us all about the importance of balancing what is going on inside our head and body, letting go of the need for external validation, and finding peace within.

Cristine now has short, light, ‘non-event’, pain-FREE period every month and no resurfacing of cysts. But the biggest joy in her journey is her connectedness, compassion and acceptance of herself, as she is able to finally live her life FREE from shame, guilt and emotional and physical pain.

Now, it's your turn to start on your own EndoBoss® journey of healing and self-discovery. 

If you're serious about change, eager to fast-track your transformation over a 12 months timeframe with our specialist and personalised support from our EndoBoss® Team, then be sure to join our email list (and/or double check your spam folder if you are already on it), as applications for the EndoBoss® Academy open soon.

In this week's podcast, Wendy K Laidlaw shares the three secrets about HOW deeply subconscious emotions maybe connected to the surfacing of disease (dis-ease) showing up in the body.

"Blocked, or deeply suppressed emotions, combined with subconscious intergenerational trauma, make the perfect breeding ground for disease (dis-ease) in the body. However, once you learn HOW to embrace emotions, healing of the mind, body and spirit begins.”- Wendy K Laidlaw

Wendy shares a recent 'How To Embrace Emotions Retreat' Masterclass replay where she explains how and why deeply blocked emotions embedded in the lower subconscious parts of the brain, maybe unprocessed and impairing the immune system.

This transformative in-person Retreat in Southern Portugal starts in 14 days.

In this week's podcast Wendy K Laidlaw talks about past pain, especially from close relationships, often erodes trust and makes us keep our hearts closed off. 

Whilst balancing the need for protection and connection can be challenging, extremes of isolation or vulnerability with our hearts were unhelpful. Either, life's beauty often gets overshadowed by sadness and loneliness when we shield our hearts or we get hurt from being too open. 

The key is a balanced middle ground. To heal and reopen your heart involves gradual steps combined with the implementation of strong, protective mechanisms.

Creating a protective mechanism enables you to identify triggers and set boundaries, and amid the fast-paced chaos of today’s society, listening to your inner voice and having brick-like boundaries becomes vital.

On her own journey, doing these things allowed Wendy to rebuild trust in herself. She realised not everyone is kind and stopped 'idealising those who hurt her' and learned to differentiate genuine connections from toxic ones. 

Wendy realised it was okay to hear uncomfortable truths about people and to say no when someone’s behaviour or requests didn’t work for her.

If you need assistance safely re-opening your heart then join her at her Retreat. You will be able to learn how to hear your voice, establish boundaries, and navigate various personalities. Even more so, you will be able to experience safe connections and fully relax in the tranquil settings of the Retreat.

Mother Teresa said the worst disease is feeling unwanted and for so long she felt this way.

Now, her heart now shines, is unshackled and strong and she is able to appreciate the world around her. Let her guide you to heal the hurts of your heart.

"The Wall or The Way" is both a reflection from Wendy K Laidlaw on memories of emotional healing and personal growth and an invitation for 'Super Sensitive Souls' to join her for emotional healing in the upcoming 'Emotional Healing Retreat' led by her personally, this October in Portugal.

The podcast starts with Wendy's reflection on a recent emotionally intense experience where she watched someone she admired succumb to the poison, negativity and manipulation of a toxic individual who newly entered her life.

She then talks about the dangers of seeking external validation for self worth and the challenges of societal conditioning, conformity, and toxic influences that may hinder emotional well-being.

Many individuals face pressure to conform to societal norms and appearances, often leading to emotional distress and self-doubt. She highlights the paradox of seeking happiness externally and introduces the concept of peace, joy and happiness being an "inside job" and for achieving emotional well-being and authenticity.

Finally, Wendy invites you to the Retreat so that she can help you address and MASTER your emotional struggles. She knows that deeply sensitive, caring, and selfless individuals tend to have difficulty valuing themselves and setting essential personal boundaries, due to deep-seated abandonment and rejection issues. 

So, the Emotional Healing Retreat promises an opportunity for these individuals to unweave societal indoctrination, listen to their inner wisdom, and mend inter-generational emotional wounds - while transitioning toward peace.

Wendys aims to do this through uniquely tailored tools, expert support, and guidance and knows that all who attend will learn emotional mastery about their emotions which will allow for emotional healing and personal growth.

Limited spaces are available.

Welcome to the concept of "The Bank of Borrowed Beliefs," a conceptual oasis where the currency of success is not measured in monetary value but in the intangible power of belief.

Imagine a place where the vaults hold treasures of wisdom, determination, and self-assurance, all borrowed from the accomplished mind(s) who have walked ahead of you on the path you aspire to tread.

In this unique establishment, borrowing takes on an entirely new dimension. Just as a financial institution lends resources to empower you in your ventures, the Bank of Borrowed Beliefs offers a collection of beliefs from those who have already reached the pinnacles of their dreams. These beliefs are the stepping stones to your aspirations, paving the way for your journey toward personal triumph - and healing your body naturally.

As you engage with this transformative concept, you'll discover that 'borrowing beliefs' is not about copying or mimicking but about harnessing the energy and insights of those who have already achieved what you aspire (like all the other EndoBosses!). 

Let your journey be guided by the luminous footprints of those who have gone before you, and watch as you transform your borrowed beliefs into the most valuable asset of all: your own unshakable mastery of self and accomplishment.

Meet the lovely Kalisha from Texas, USA, who shares her inspiring story.

Kalisha used to have debilitating monthly cycles that were so chronically painful that she would end up having to go to the A&E department at the local hospital; every month. Then the doctors would put her on an intravenous drip with pain medication to try and manage the excruciating pain that soared through her abdomen and body.

Fortunately, Kalisha's sister bought my book called "How I Ended My Endometriosis Naturally" for her (which is available on Amazon). Although it was challenging at the start, she started to make the necessary lifestyle changes and within a few months, Kalisha's pain started to diminish and her visits to the hospital stopped.

Whilst Kalisha still has some way to go on her EndoBoss® journey to reach her destination, she kindly reached out to us on Instagram and shared her great news of progression in the right direction!

Listen to Kalisha share her inspiring journey and what is possible with the correct information and approach. As the Tasmanian proverb says "Little by little, little becomes a lot".

Kalisha was also offered a coveted place in our EndoBoss® Coach Training Academy, to learn how to inspire and guide women with endometriosis to embrace their emotions and to become an EndoBoss®.

Welcome to an inspiring episode of our podcast, where we have the pleasure of hearing Hana's incredible EndoBoss® success story with Heal Endometriosis Naturally and Wendy K Laidlaw. 

Hana is a remarkably strong and lovely woman, who comes all the way from Slovakia in Europe and has recently completed the transformative and life-giving 12-month EndoBoss® Client Academy Program.

Her journey has led her to achieve remission from endometriosis, experiencing zero pain each month. We are absolutely thrilled that Hana agreed to join us today and share her remarkable journey.

Hana started her path by joining our 21-Day Unstoppable EndoBoss® Challenge, and then she participated in the Embracing Emotions program. If you haven't taken part in these programs yet, we highly encourage you to do so.

Healing from endometriosis is an emotional journey, and it requires conscious effort and specialist support. 

Wendy K Laidlaw, the creator of these transformative online programs, discusses the five essential poisons that need to be addressed: produce, products, property, people, and past. 

While the practical aspects of the programs are relatively straightforward and explained thoroughly in her book, the emotional component presents a greater challenge.

Many women are raised to be seen rather than heard, conditioned to be "good girls" who suppress their emotions and always prioritize others. This emotional aspect forms a significant part of the journey and is a core focus of the program Wendy has developed.

Starting with the 21-Day Challenge allows women to reconnect with themselves gradually over three weeks. During this time, women can observe how their body responds to this newfound self-listening.

Hana's dedication and commitment led us to offer her a place in the prestigious EndoBoss® Client Academy. Please note that the Academy has limited enrollment and not everyone who applies is accepted due to the specific criteria we look for in applicants. We seek women, like Hana, who recognize the importance of hard work, commitment, and necessary changes to achieve results.

Hana's progress has been truly amazing, and we couldn't be more proud and delighted to share some of her specific progress with you.

When she first joined the program, she experienced daily pain ranging from one to four on the pain scale, along with three to five days of bleeding, chronic fatigue, bloating, candida, and various infections. She also carried the burden of childhood trauma, which she astutely identified as a factor affecting her nervous and immune systems.

Unfortunately, some of the medical professionals she sought help from had created additional trauma for her. If you've ever encountered rude or dismissive medical professionals, you understand how such experiences can compound trauma within your nervous system. However, throughout her journey in the EndoBoss® Client Academy, Hana experienced a complete transformation.

Under Wendy's, Maxine and EndoBoss® Team guidance, Hana witnessed significant improvements. She now has pain-FREE periods, her fibroid reduced from 2 cm to 1.4 cm, and she lost 13 kg in weight. 

The most notable transformation occurred on an emotional level, as Hana developed a deeper connection with herself. Her energy levels improved, and she gained confidence in communicating her needs, setting boundaries, and advocating for herself. These changes allowed her to rediscover lost 'Parts' of herself, including her playful, professional and protective aspects.

Throughout her journey, Hana received unwavering support from our exceptional EndoBoss® team, including our dedicated endometriosis coaches like Head Coach, Maxine.

Wendy herself was involved, closely monitoring Hana's progress and providing guidance whenever needed. Hana specifically mentioned the tremendous impact of her Head Coach, Maxine, who supported, cheered, and guided her through challenging times. Their relationship initially faced hurdles due to Hana's childhood trauma, making it challenging for her to receive the compassion and kindness we knew she deserved. 

However, with Maxine's expert coaching approach and a growing sense of confidence, Hana was able to trust, relax and understand the profound value of their safe connection and the expert support offered. And then the healing began!

Have you ever found yourself in a frustrating situation where the medical field fails to acknowledge your pain, despite your extensive research and relentless suffering? You're not alone.

In this podcast, Wendy K Laidlaw discusses the harsh reality faced by millions of women every day – the struggle to be believed after years, if not decades, of enduring excruciating pain.

 What's even more disheartening is that the very professionals who are supposed to offer guidance often exacerbate the situation by focusing on symptom suppression rather than addressing the underlying causes.

Antidepressants are prescribed, leaving women feeling dismissed and invalidated, as their pain is written off as imaginary. Some are even misdiagnosed with eating disorders when in truth, they are simply avoiding certain foods due to a lack of digestive support.

Many women are left feeling hopeless, desperately seeking effective treatments but met with ignorance or outdated approaches. It's crucial to trust your instincts above anyone else's opinions or advice when it comes to your health – your well-being depends on it.

If you're ready to embark on your own journey towards healing, visit https://HealEndometriosisNaturally.com and download your Top 5 Quick Start Tips. Get ready to find hope, support, and empowerment as we explore the uncharted territories of endometriosis. Start this transformative journey - to heal naturally.

Meet the lovely Leonie from Switzerland, who shares another inspiring EndoBoss® story.

Leonie is 21 years old, and when she reached out to us last year, she was suffering terribly every day with pain scores of 5-7, along with severe back pain, painful bowel movements, ovarian cysts, bloating, and ovulation pain in mid cycle, to name a few of the many symptoms that crippled her ability to live her life. 

Over the past nine months, Leonie has seen many significant and life-changing improvements, from stronger hair and nails, softer skin, the disappearance of Candida, improved and regular bowel movements, along with an improved digestive system. 

In addition, she has also seen her period pain scores reduce by over half, with no daily pain and only 1-2 at her periods. Her energy and sleep patterns have improved, along with her confidence and sense of self. 

Emotionally she is stronger in recognising how to protect herself whilst developing more skills in listening and identifying her personality 'parts' that need additional self-kindness, compassion and support. Leone has also learned how to put in new appropriate boundaries with those people who are disrespectful, unkind or toxic to her.

Leonie was surprised at how much the EndoBoss® Academy program helped her to heal emotionally and spiritually, which in turn, has helped reconnect her to her body in a new, healthy way and enabled her to understand it in a way she’s never known before. 

Leonie felt that the program was a nurturing and loving environment that she had not experienced before. She continues to work on some more emotional aspects to strengthen her connection to her body, as she still has a little way to go to be totally pain-free each month which is now in her sights.

It’s been inspiring to work with such a young and beautiful woman at the beginning of her life to directly inform, educate and inspire her. 

Leonie is now onto a new, healthy pathway and can understand the true meaning and messages behind any symptoms or pain showing up in her body - and how to take affirmative and impactive action.

Leonie felt she was surrounded by kindness, positivity, and a support system whilst she learned to recognise her value and worth in the world. She encourages any woman who has tried everything else to apply to work with the EndoBoss® Academy to help realign the relationship between their bodies and to become a boss over their endometriosis - an EndoBoss®.

This week Wendy shares an extract from a group Q&A call from her Embracing Emotions program. In this extract, she discusses how the emotional component is integral to allowing for the whole body and whole person to heal.

Any form of disease, especially endometriosis, is a complex condition and affects all elements of a woman’s life and her body.  By learning how to listen to her body and her emotions, she ultimately becomes a detective and that new art develops a new and empowering relationship.  The woman is, over time, able to identify certain triggers from the 5 P’s and then learns how to become a boss of her endometriosis - an EndoBoss®. 

The key to success is Persistence (it may take up to 12 months to put into remission with expert support, and Patience (this process is not a quick fix but is a "long-term sustainable solution," which addresses the root causes of a problem and is designed to provide lasting and effective results) and Parts (listen to all parts of yourself - all parts make a whole).

Meet the delightful Jessica from the USA, who, through an Essay she wrote at the end of EndoBoss® Academy, has agreed for Wendy to read out for this podcast. The Essay read by Wendy explains and shares another EndoBoss® Inspiring Story with Heal Endometriosis Naturally.

Jessica is a 40-year-old primary school teacher who, sadly, had to resign from her work due to severe levels of endometriosis pain. 

Fortunately, Jessica was determined to find a natural approach to healing and resisted pressure to proceed with an invasive surgical procedure that her gynaecologist promoted. She searched for solutions on Amazon and discovered Wendy's paperback book How I Ended My Endometriosis Naturally and signed up for the website Top Tips.

Feeling inspired and hopeful, she watched the educational MasterClass Wendy held and was lucky to be offered a coveted place in the life-changing EndoBoss® Academy.

When Jessica first started working with Wendy and the EndoBoss® Team, she was in a lot of pain, with scores as high as 8-10 every day, with pain at ovulation and higher pain at menstruation. She also had other symptoms like spotting, breast pain, pain with bowel movements, adenomyosis, cysts, chronic fatigue, poor sleep, bloating, migraines, bladder sensitivity, lower back pain, etc.

Within a few months of starting her EndoBoss® Journey, her periods got shorter in length, with lighter blood flow, better skin on her hands and face (which previously had eczema), and better digestion. 

After 27 years of debilitating chronic abdominal pain, Wendy will share how Jessica learned the root causes of her suffering and now connects with her body, mind, emotions and spirit in a comfortable and empowering way for the betterment of her overall health.

As you may recall from previous EndoBoss® success stories, real physical healing only starts when the emotional elements are processed and addressed gently and lovingly over a 10-12 months period.

By paying close attention to what is going in, on and around the body and the brain (the brain/body connection), our expert team systematically help our EndoBosses process any upsetting events or elements from the people and/or the past.

This also includes helping women to identify and embrace their emotions and hear their underlying messages whilst encouraging them to install healthy firm boundaries for any toxic or trying people in their lives. These elements may operate on a deep, subconscious level affecting one's health - even for the most successful women in the business world.

The real secret to the whole brain/body healing is by using the 'Laidlaw Protocols' to support the challenging job of healing parts of the subconscious and emotions, which may hold 'hurts and harms' from the past, whilst also learning to embrace emotions in a new and empowering way.

Jessica trusted the EndoBoss® Process and saw many positive improvements in her body. She also experienced gigantic shifts in her sense of self, confidence, identity and ability to listen and trust her inner wisdom and instincts. She now recognises her innate personal value, self-worth and emotional strength.

Now, ten months on, Jessica has been to return to her work again at a local school and has a new and compassionate relationship with her body, mind and emotions. 

Whilst Jessica still has a little way to go to achieve her full ultimate pain-free goal, she has made significant shifts and improvements that she never thought possible, physically and emotionally, at the start of her EndoBoss® journey. 

Jessica knows that she is a BOSS over her endometriosis now and an EndoBoss® for life.

So we hope you enjoy listening to Wendy share Jessica's Essay as she generously shares her EndoBoss® journey so far.

Jessica is such a beautiful soul (much like many of our amazing EndoBosses), so we ask you to support her generously by sending her your love, cheers and congratulations on her courage!

This week, Wendy talks with the delightful Lois Hollis from the USA, who is the author and Founder of Shame Guilt, sharing the insidious nature of toxic and often subconscious emotional states of shame guilt.

The shame game is prevalent in many elements of society, religion and relationships and may go on below the level of conscious awareness and be highly damaging to one’s health.

Fifty years ago, Lois was physically disabled and depressed and told she had only one or two years to live due to kidney failure and heart issues. 

Now, she is thriving at the ripe age of 80; she will celebrate her birthday rollerblading. She is a testament to how to reclaim your health and unlock it after dispelling and dispersing long-held displaced shame and guilt passed down through the ancestral line and projected from specific segments of society.

Lois has made it her life’s work to share with people suffering from long-term medical conditions and diseases how to easily hear and process any shame and guilt (shame guilt). This allows other feelings and pleasant emotional states to emerge, opening up the opportunity for physical, mental and emotional healing.

To learn more about Lois go to LoisHollis.com and download her free e-book and other video content.  

You can also go to https://HealEndometriosisNaturally.com/Programs to learn more about the 21-Day Challenge ‘unblock Emotional Blocks’ to unlock trapped unpleasant emotions inhibiting your healing journey.

In this week's Podcast, Wendy K Laidlaw talks about Stranger Danger.

"Stranger Danger" is a term normally used to educate children and young people about the potential dangers of interacting with complete strangers. The basic message is to be cautious of strangers and people in authority positions, especially when they are alone or by themselves.

However, this is also an important concept for women to remember when approaching any new health services professionals.

Women need to be aware of potential risks, such as exploitation, pressure or abuse and ensure that they interact with a trustworthy and competent professional who is the right fit for them and their needs.

Going slowly and taking time to listen to their instincts may minimise any potential risks of future physical, mental, emotional and spiritual harm.

This week Wendy K Laidlaw talks about the conscious act of 'culling clutter' or getting rid of unnecessary items and distractions in your mind, home and all areas of your life and how this may help improve one's physical and emotional health. 

Studies have shown that clearing old and unused items (that may have been hoarded and built up over time) declutters the mind and gives more energy to your body, home and life. 

Studies reveal that culling unnecessary clutter has been shown to reduce physical and emotional stress and anxiety, improve your organization and productivity, plus create a sense of calm and control in one's living or working space.

This week, Wendy K Laidlaw shares a recent mini-masterclass that she held about how you can 'UnBlock Emotional Blocks' within an impactful 21-Day Challenge to start the New Year off with a positive boost!

Most women do not realise that the suppression of emotions may significantly affect our overall well-being, including our physical health, energy levels and immune responses.

Research suggests that we can positively impact our immune system by embracing and expressing emotions (in a safe, guided and considered way) rather than suppressing or denying them.

Studies have found that individuals who suppress or deny their emotions have a weaker immune response to stressors than those who express them.

So, this mini-MasterClass shares some of the impactful protocols, tools and secrets that Wendy has used herself and with clients to learn how to increase awareness and curiosity of both pleasant and unpleasant emotions over the years.  These science-based approaches ultimately enabled her to increase her immune system's effectiveness, lower inflammation and decrease stress and anxiety - and put all of her conditions, including stage IV endometriosis, into remission.

Meet the amazing Angharad from the UK, who shares another EndoBoss® Inspiring Story with Heal Endometriosis Naturally & Wendy K Laidlaw.

Angharad is a 25-year-old Property Manager working in a busy property management company in England.

After fourteen years of suffering in terrible pain, today she will share how she learned the root causes of her pain, and how to connect with her body, mind, emotions and spirit in a whole new and empowering way for the betterment of her health.

When Angharad first reached out to Wendy and the EndoBoss® Team, she was in a lot of daily pain, with pain at ovulation and high pain at menstruation. She also had other symptoms like chronic fatigue, poor sleep, bloating, bladder sensitivity, lower back pain, kidney pain, etc.

Unfortunately, Angharad was encouraged to proceed with an invasive surgical procedure that her gynaecologist promoted. Yet, within a few weeks, all of her symptoms returned, and she was left feeling more alone and frightened.

However, Angharad's strength of character and determination showed through and she followed her hunch that "there had to be another way" of addressing endometriosis.

So Angharad searched online and discovered Wendy's paperback book How I Ended My Endometriosis Naturally, (available on Amazon) and read it within a few days.

Feeling inspired and hopeful, she joined our incredibly impactful and supportive 21-Day Challenge to learn the secrets to starting her new EndoBoss® Journey - and self-care without guilt. Then she joined our Embracing Emotions online program and, upon successful completion, was offered a coveted place in the life-changing EndoBoss® Academy.

Within a few months of starting her EndoBoss® Journey, Angharad's eczema improved, pain scores and symptoms had significantly reduced, and she now, 8 months on, she has a new and compassionate relationship with her body, mind and emotions. 

As you may recall from previous EndoBoss® success stories, real physical healing only starts when the emotional elements are considered and addressed gently and lovingly.

By paying close attention to what is going in, on and around the body, and the brain, (the brain/body connection), our expert team systematically help our EndoBosses process any upsetting events or elements from the people and/or the past. This also includes helping women to identify and embrace emotions and hear their messages, whilst installing healthy firm boundaries for toxic people in their lives, as these elements may operate on a deep, subconscious level affecting one's health - even for the most successful women in the business world.

The real secret to the whole brain/body healing is by using the 'Laidlaw Protocols' to support the challenging job of healing parts of the subconscious and emotions, which may hold 'hurts and harms' from the past; whilst also learning to embrace emotions in a new and empowering way.

Angharad has bravely leaned in and trusted the EndoBoss Process and therefore experienced gigantic shifts in her sense of self, confidence and ability to listen to her inner voice and instincts. She now recognises her innate personal value, self-worth and unique emotional strength.

Whilst Angharad still has a little way to go to achieve her ultimate physical goal, I can share with you that she knows she is a BOSS over her endometriosis now, an EndoBoss® - and an emotional master and that healing is imminent.

So I hope you enjoy listening to lovely Angharad as she bravely and generously shares her EndoBoss® journey so far.

Angharad is such a beautiful soul (much like many of our courageous EndoBosses) and I ask you to support her generously for sharing this Podcast by sending her your love, cheers and congratulations on her courage!

Wendy K Laidlaw talks about the importance of mourning and the deeper meaning behind the process of grieving a loved one.

How in many parts of the world, mourning the passing of a loved one is more accepted and prevalent than it appears to be in the Western world.

With the recent passing of Queen Elizabeth II and after the first memorial service which was held in Scotland, it became evident that women, children, and even grown men were deeply affected by her passing.

Although few knew her personally, it may have been that this official mourning period in the UK allowed some of the population to finally take time to mourn the loss of close loved ones who had long since passed.

A mourning period is meant to acknowledge a loss and integrate the blessings that person brought into the world.

To negate or ignore or block feelings of grief or hurry through the pain of loss may have profound emotional and long-term physical effects on the body.

Yet, with some simple science-based tools, one can be assisted in learning how to surf the waves of emotion rather than sink in the sea of them.

If you are ready to be gently challenged to 'Unblock Emotional Blocks', then make sure to join our incredible 21-Day Challenge than starts Monday 10th October 2022.

A question that Wendy is often asked by women with endometriosis (and adenomyosis) is "But are you out of pain and are you still healthy now?"

Yes is the answer!

Unlike some people parading in the endometriosis space online, Wendy has put all of her conditions in remission - and they remain in remission. Hence why she does what she does to this day.

So in an exciting confirmation of her continued health, Wendy shares the personal details of a recent eye test to prove the effectiveness of her Laidlaw Protocols.

Wendy is hosting a FREE MasterClass on Embracing Emotions which is available for only three days.

Meet the wonderful Esra from Dubai (originally from Turkey) who shares her EndoBoss® Inspiring Story.

Esra was a Human Resources Manager prior to the Covid epidemic that affected everyone worldwide.

When Esra first reached out to us she was in a lot of pain at ovulation and high levels of pain at menstruation.

She also had ovarian cysts, chronic fatigue, poor sleep, bloating, bladder sensitivity, lower back pain, burning sensation in her abdomen and chest, along with an unrelenting pressure sensation in her throat.

Fortunately for Esra, her instincts directed her online to seek out another way, (other than surgery or drugs to try to manage her newly diagnosed endometriosis), so she luckily avoided any invasive surgical procedures being promoted by her gynaecologist.

Esra purchased my paperback book How I Ended My Endometriosis Naturally, read it within a few days, then reached out to apply to join the life changing EndoBoss® Academy. 

Within six months of starting the EndoBoss® Journey, Esra's pain scores and symptoms had significantly reduced (or disappeared, much like her autoimmune disease called Sjogren syndrome), and she now has a new and compassionate relationship with her body. 

As you know, from previous EndoBoss® success stories, the real healing is about the emotional journey.

By addressing what is going in, on and around the body, and the brain, (the brain/body connection) we systematically help our EndoBosses process, gently, any upsetting events from the past and/or any toxic people in their lives, as these elements may operate on a deep, subconscious level affecting one's health.

The real secret to whole body and emotions healing, is using the Laidlaw Protocols to support the challenging job of healing parts of the subconscious which may hold hurts and harms from the past, whilst also learning to embrace the emotions.

Esra has experienced such gigantic shifts in her confidence and her ability to listen to her inner voice and instincts now, as well as recognising her full self-worth and strength.

Even though Esra has a little way to go to achieve her ultimate goal of full remission of her cysts (they take some time and require deeper emotional support), what I can share with you is that she absolutely knows that she is a BOSS over her endometriosis now; an EndoBoss® and an emotional master.

So I really hope that you enjoy listening to lovely Esra as she generously shares her EndoBoss® journey so far, as she is such a beautiful soul, much like all of our courageous EndoBosses!

Wendy K Laidlaw welcomes back Dr Tony Coope (MD) from the UK to the Podcast where they discuss the truths and safety of natural bio-identical progesterone cream. 

“With endometriosis it’s not just about adding Progesterone. Without addressing the emotional and spiritual elements of your life, you cannot heal. That’s the conclusion I have come too”.  Dr Tony Coope

There is often a significant amount of misinformation, misunderstanding and confusion amongst many women, including the mainstream medical realm, about the use and supplementation of natural bio-identical progesterone cream. 

Natural bio-identical progesterone cream is a safe way to naturally increase levels of the hormone progesterone (if it is low, or there is none showing up in tests).

However, natural bio-identical progesterone is often mistaken for the chemical alternative called Progestins, which are produced by the big pharmaceutical companies and may cause severe side effects for women with endometriosis. 

Dr Tony Coope has a wide breadth of experience and wealth of knowledge covering various health conditions spanning over 40+ years. He has trained and served in general practice, as well as a hospital doctor, covering the specialities of medicine, surgery, paediatrics, geriatrics and emergency/trauma medicine. 

After leaving general practice he explored an Integrated Medical approach to healing naturally including the use of nutritional supplements, bio-identical hormones, botanicals, as well as complex homeopathy and the use of sound and monochromatic light in healing.

He has specialised for over 20 years in female hormone health, incorporating psychology and psychosomatic elements of complementary medicine to assist a full brain/body health and healing.

Dr Tony Coope’s journey enabled him to branch further into spiritual matters, philosophy and metaphysics, which he believes expands an individual’s sense of meaning and purpose in the world, thereby leading to full health, wholeness and fulfilment.

*Please note* - it is recommended to address the emotional and spiritual elements of yourself, relationships and past events, first, (and The 5 P’s; Poisons, Produce, Products, Property, People & Past), prior to introducing any natural bio-identical progesterone cream.

This week Wendy K Laidlaw talks about the correlations between a recent televised court case showing openly the manipulation of a famous toxic person to another. 

Whilst the male gender is generally believed to be the dominant aggressor in some relationships, in this particular case it was the female.  This is more common than many people believe.

Personality disorders, controlling and manipulative behaviour experienced by another person is often underestimated and the physical impact poorly understood by mainstream society. 

Wendy discusses how to get clear on identifying any unpleasant or toxic people in your life that may be triggering your nervous system (unconsciously) and/or inhibiting the immune system from working effectively to heal endometriosis naturally.  She also shares what steps to take and how to gently start empowering yourself and your body in a super safe way.

Wendy K Laidlaw discusses the misconception of vulnerability in our modern day society.

She questions the concept of vulnerability when the world has become self-obsessed and women are not taught how to protect themselves emotionally from others.

Wendy discusses more up to date concepts of emotional and spiritual protection being put first ahead of opening yourself up to unsafe and toxic people unwittingly.

Do you ever find yourself struggling to know what to eat and feel overwhelmed why the abundance of do’s and don’ts online for endometriosis?

Our relationship with food may be a challenge on its own depending on any past associations growing up around the meal table.  So when you have a number of factors or fighting forces you may then end up grabbing the chocolate bar or bag of crisps to deal with the overwhelm.

Wendy discusses a unique way to ensure you can easily ingest and digest good healthy food in a fun way and how easy and cost effective it can be, with the added bonus of feeding your body what it needs so it can start to heal.

Wendy also talks about the release of her fully updated and revised Endometriosis Naturally Cookbook which is published this Friday 20th May exclusively on Amazon at 50% off the paperback for 24 hours.

In this episode Wendy talks about the power of proteins and their essential role in helping the body heal.

Protein is a food, produce and substance of confusion, contention and which is regularly misunderstood, especially when discussing endometriosis.

Wendy discusses when she was in her teens, twenties, thirties and forties the concept of food fazed her. She always struggled with knowing what to eat, and whatever she ate, being able to digest it. Now in hindsight she is aware of the impact the nervous system has on digestion and how it needs to be a 'rest and relaxed' state to begin the digestive process of breaking down the food we eat.

Wendy always found food a faff and feared or fawned away from solid food preferring supplements as she grew up. But then realised her diet consisted of poor nutritional items like black coffee and a sugar laden fruit scone often ladled with copious amounts of butter and jam. Lunch would be a wheat bread sandwich with a small filling and supper some kind of pasta dish or pizza. It really is no wonder her body became ill. Yet she knew little about how to eat healthily.  When she first heard the mention of eating protein more regularly was confused on how best to eat it. She found that protein wakes up her brain (especially when it is in a Power Shake) and makes her ready for the day. Are you ready to embrace the power of Protein in a new and empowering way to help support your body into a healing state?

Make sure to mark your calendar as *NEXT Friday 20th May* is when the "2nd Edition Endometriosis Naturally Cookbook" will be available on Amazon for 50% off for 24 hours and will show you the easy and fun way to incorporate more (powerful) protein into your life.

Wendy K Laidlaw shares how to overcome any despair some women may experience when they have changed their produce, diet and eating habits, yet may not be getting the results physically that they seek.

Whilst there may be some very good reasons for this lack of progress at times, it is important not to give up on the endometriosis naturally journey.

Healing endometriosis naturally is, of course, based on much more than just nutrition (think The 5 P's) but to ensure you are not being 'fed' misinformation make sure to mark your calendar for when the fully revised and updated 2nd Edition Endometriosis Naturally Cookbook is released on Amazon globally on Friday 20th May 2022.

Wendy K Laidlaw talks about the essential need to modernised, update and reassess the approach to the outdated and archaic gynaecological field, globally.

Some elements of the gynaecological procedures and approaches have not been modernised for almost 100 years; which is shocking in this modern day and age.   

In an era where humans can take a flight up into space and robots can be sent to planet Mars, more focused attention and direction needs to be considered in updating a new and non-invasive approach to women's pelvic health.

Some of the drugs and surgical procedures are downright dangerous and may leave irreversible side effects that women only find out about after the action or procedures have been carried out.  

More information needs to be shared with girls at a younger age to advise that pain with a period is not normal and education given to the positive and non-invasive approaches they can take themselves to avoid, prevent and reverse any pelvic pain.

Focus should be on blood tests for diagnosis and not surgical procedures. Education should be shared about the real risks prior to any treatment being carried out and the natural self help approaches discussed as an alternative to the medical mainstream.

Meet the delightful Anita from Australia who shares another EndoBoss® Inspiring Story.

Anita is an experienced secondary school teacher and also a nutritionalist.

When she first reached out to me she was bleeding six to nine days of the month with heavy clots, crippling migraines and intense lower back pain. She had debilitating lethargy and terrible fatigue, bloating, bladder sensitivity, distention in her stomach, chemical sensitivities, dragging sensations down her legs and intense anxiety.

Anita had tried a number of other natural modalities and approaches to heal and had also tried two surgeries.

Unfortunately, the medical procedures only increased her symptoms and she was left feeling quite mistreated by the medical field who were very dismissive of what was happening to her and her body.

Then she started her new EndoBoss® Journey. Within six months of joining the EndoBoss® Academy, Anita's pain scores have halved and she has a new and empowering relationship with her body. 

Emotionally, she is the strongest she has ever felt and has had quantum shifts in her confidence, as well as recognising her full self-worth and future purpose.

As you know, with all EndoBoss® success stories, it is about the emotional journey of addressing what is going in the body and the brain, in relation to the past and toxic people, as these things can operate on a deep subconscious level affecting one's health.

Even though Anita has a little way to go to achieve her ultimate goal, what I can share with you is that she absolutely knows that she is a BOSS over her endometriosis now; an EndoBoss®.

So I really hope that you enjoy listening to Anita as she eloquently shares her journey as she is such a beautiful soul.

#EndoBoss #HealEndometriosisNaturally #WendyKLaidlaw

As I write this, I am on a plane to London for what I call a 'Self-date'.

A 'self-date' is a concept taken from the wonderful Julia Cameron's book The Artist Way, in which a block of time is taken purely for oneself and by oneself.

For me, myself and I as some call it.

But how incredibly challenging a concept for many women.

I recall my own childhood of watching the women of many generations and their focus, attention, and actions.

My grandmothers were housewives and spent all their time fussing and fawning over various family members, especially the men.

My Granny Laidlaw was dispatched to boarding school (the REAL St Trinians) at the tender age of 5, when her parents, (my great grandparents), sailed off to live and work in India.

My heart bleeds for her even now for her parents to be so far away when there was no mobile phones or internet.

When I first heard about the cruel and unkind Victorian abandonment, to a stone-cold institution at this age, when many are only just starting to make sense of their surroundings, language and body; let alone loneliness and abandonment (or rejection as she viewed it) I was horrified.

Why would parents do that to their children?

How did she cope?

Who was there for her when she was sad, down or depressed?

Her girls-only boarding school taught her about the role of women during her years there.  

She would later display her certificates proudly for Home Economics, aka about cleaning, hoover, washing dishes, and caring for their husbands.

Let's not forget that even as recent as the 1960-1907's women were expected to give up their work and fully attend to their home and husband after marriage.

My Granny Laidlaw was to take those certificates to heart and become an excellent wife and mother.

That was her role, and she committed such dedication and resolve to it (despite my Grandfather having a long term mistress and a roaming eye for the ladies).

My Granny Laidlaw was strong, loyal and full of duty.

Yet, as she got older, she would be weighted down by giving out too much to others, and did not know how to do 'self-dates' or spend time on herself and was treated for chronic depression and other debilitating mental illnesses.

I remember her saying to me how she felt invisible and worthless.

"Would anyone even notice Wendy if I was gone?" She would say to me.

"Of course, Granny!" I cried.

"I would miss you soo much!"

You see she was like a second mother to me, when my own mother was in and out of hospital after I was born with endless endometriosis, cysts and other medical complications.

My other Grandmother, my Granny Downie, equally had a strong sense of stoicism and had a strict upbringing in East Lothian on the outskirts of Edinburgh.

Her family worked hard and provided her with lots of love. 

Yet, she would meet my Grandfather (whose mother left him and his father at aged 5 and be brought up in a fiercely hostile environment). My Granny would give birth to 9 children (of which only 7 survived) whilst running a farm during the bleak war times of running to underground bunkers, in between collecting eggs, feeding cattle, driving the combine harvester and up all hours during the night helping during lambing season. Their farm was their contribution during war times, and they were responsible for providing certain milk quotas and meat for the local village and towns.

My Granny Downie had the most inspiring strength to navigate great uncertainty during her lifetime and bringing up her 7 children.

She also took on the role of family mediator to navigate the internal sibling squabbles and shenanigans around the dinner table for decades. 

What I loved the most was her delightful sense of humour, and despite the challenges, life threw her way, she taught me how to look for the tiny shards of light in any dark situation or times.

So both of these amazing women taught me lots.  

Their resolve and a firm dedication to the greater good during the period of World War 2 was impressive.

I am sure that a time of dodging bombs, taking care of evacuees, distributing food to nearby camps despite the limited food rations, and keeping focused on others left little or no time for 'self-dates'..

I sometimes wonder what my Grandmothers would make of women being given a day of celebration and their expanding roles in society now a days.

Personally, although I was inspired by them and their desire to take care of the home, husbands and family, I had a burning desire to expand further into entrepreneurialism from a young age.

I have tried to 'do it all' and 'have it all.'

I worked from home and set up my businesses when my children were born.

I wanted to make a difference in the world, and I was intrigued to see what I could accomplish but I did not want someone else to bringing up my children or see their first step or hear their first word.

The past few decades were incredibly challenging at times especially when I heard the judgement from other women about what I should and shouldn't do as a woman and mother.

But I am pleased to see that the world has finally opened up for more and more for women and their visions, dreams and accomplishments.

The heavy pressure to conform, to fit into a set box and stay confined to a particular set of antiquated rules, outlined by old fashioned and restricted values and ideals, are eroding away to make way for women to celebrate themselves, each other and future generations of women.

Historically, back in 8000-2000 BC, it is reported that men and women lived in a partnership model of society not a dominator model.

Both genders were once regarded as equals in all ways and I feel there is much still to do to get back to that cohesive and collaborative way of living for all.

So, as I ponder on the true meaning of International Women's Day today. I have taken time to reflect on my travels what the generations of women before me have had to endure or adapt to over the past 80-100 years. 

I wonder what both of my Grannies would say now if they were both still alive.

Personally, I think they would be in awe at the progressive nature of women now, their continued accomplishments and the great opportunities available to women now; thanks to the introduction of the internet and the great work of so many women breaking through so many glass ceilings.

Also, they would be open-mouthed and wide eyes at the number of women spearheading the juggling act of home life, children and running businesses so eloquently as so many women do.

And they often do it without making much fuss but often with little alone time to allow for reflection and celebration at their wins and how far they have come.

What I love about celebrating women today, on International Women's Day, is this idea of cohesiveness and togetherness.

I grew up with a mother who felt threatened and intimidated by other women.

It always perturbed me that she was so wary and suspicious she was of her same gender.

I appreciate that there have been times in history that have not encouraged women's togetherness.

In fact, it was commonplace for the long-suffering, faithful and dutiful wife in golden olden times to be promptly replaced by a younger model and discarded like an empty crips packet.

History is littered with stories like this dating back to Roman times.

So, as a gender, we have come far.

We come together more and celebrate more, especially when we recognise that we often have the same common challenges we have been battling for decades, if not hundreds of years.

Women have been fighting the wage gap, the sexism and the outdated messages of 'stay at home, barefoot, pregnant and chained to the kitchen sink' for many years. Which is fine if that is what she really wants. But often, like my Grandmothers, other talents and ambitions lie beneath the surface or are squashed by people who do not celebrate a woman's worth and contribution.

Old ways are thawing and breaking down.

I welcome that women are growing in confidence to question the old ways.

I love that more women are now tuning into their own instincts about their roles in life, relationships, society, and, of course, their careers.

There is nothing more uplifting than feeling the bond with a strong woman who sees your potential then mirrors that back, with the unwavering belief, of what is possible and her belief in you.

I have heard that some older generations of women (who have achieved great success) say that they felt they had to become 'a man in a woman's body'.

I don't think that helps any woman's growth in our society.

What does that say to the younger generations coming up?

"Don't be a woman but learn to act and behave like a man in a woman's body!"

And that then feeds back into the mistrust of women by other women.

I believe that women just need to be themselves; no matter what.

Women need to surround themselves with inspiring and supportive women who genuinely believe in them until they can believe in themselves.

The work I do now complements this intention beautifully.

Endometriosis can destroy a woman's confidence to its core.

Many women lose touch with their bodies and instincts and dislike themselves.

They may feel a victim to the condition, especially when it impacts their daily life and career in such a devastating fashion.

And I hope that more women will offer mentorship and supportive programs to hold the torch and be that light to allow millions of women to step out and step up into their power so more women can celebrate International Women's Day in greater numbers.

This brings me lastly to the women of Ukraine right now.

To see photographs of women coming together is hopeful for their future procession of the profound trauma they much be enduring right now.

It is heartwarming to hear about the many Polish families waiting at the railway stations, willingly with open arms, to welcome complete strangers into their home.

For women to embrace other women and their families in this way, at this overwhelming time, when their own homes, towns and villages have been blazoned to the ground, gives great hope for us all despite all the horrors.

To see two neighbouring countries be supportive is inspiring.

Especially when you consider, if there had been old feelings of threat and hostility on each other, it could cause the continued displacement of so many families for years to come.

The BBC news has quoted that out the 1,200,00 Ukraines who have gone over the border into Poland in the past few weeks, it is estimated some 500,000 these people have been embraced into the Polish homes.

What a heartwarming thought at such tragic times.

I commend these women (and men) for their generosity of spirit and openness to others.

For me, that is a true celebration and a wonderful example of International Women's Day right there.

Whilst one angry Russian man tries to rip apart a whole nation of Ukrainians and destroy their spirit, these acts of kindness, generosity, and togetherness may help the women, men, and children heal faster in time.

So, we need women to be women and not pretend to be men.

We need more women to recognise that if someone is threatened by their new emerging strength, then to use that as the fuel to realise their potential, as it continues to awaken from the past fear and threat passed down from generations of women before them.

So remember to celebrate all the millions of women's accomplishments and see them as the 'machete through the dense jungle forging a clear pathway' for our daughters, granddaughters and all female generations to come.

International Women's Day is a celebration for all women to celebrate all women.

Think of 5 women you admire the most and the reasons why? What is it about their character that you are drawing too? What is it about them that inspires you? How did they overcome the many challenges and obstacles thrown their way? What has been the meaning and message of their life and career?

There are types of questions that I ask of myself when I see or hear the presence of a woman who has eloquently been able to hold her own and clear away for other women.

I saw this huge sign in the centre of London earlier about International Women's Day and it said "Real change takes true character", but it is much more than that.

Real change requires the focus of women outwardly supporting other women, ensuring they are lifting each other up and not tearing each other down.

So, dear women, don't be a man! 

Be 'ALL woman' and set out to unravel and discover your unique fingerprint contribution and change that you are destined to bring to the world!

To your health!

"Wendy: Hi, this is Wendy Laidlaw here from Heal Endometriosis Naturally. I am joined today with Joanna, which is very exciting. Hi, Joanna. Joanna: Hi, Wendy. Wendy: How are you today? Joanna: I am doing really well. Wendy: Well, thank you so much for agreeing to be interviewed with me today. I know everyone that first comes on to be interviewed -- it's a bit nerve-wracking. It's kind of like "What questions is she going to ask me?" but I was particularly excited about interviewing you today because you're coming to the end of the foundation program. You've had stage four Endometriosis. You've had cysts. You've had adhesions. You've had everything. And I think people will really be interested in your stories so I thought maybe you could just give a little bit of background. I know you've read my book and that lead you to the foundation program, but perhaps you could tell a little bit more about where did you see information about the book, what you got from the book and then we can get more information from you then. Joanna: Okay. So I didn't know that I had Endometriosis and about last year I started getting a lot of pain. I've always had painful periods. My periods started when I was 13 and I had to leave school the day it started. I was in so much pain and it's been like that forever. It's always been taking time off work and leaving a college class in the middle of a session because your pain was so intense and crying all the way home because your legs were going numb. And I always thought that was normal. I had no reason to question that that was not normal to feel like that during a period, more so because my sister was like that, my cousins were like that. It ran in the family. I don't tend to talk about other girls about how do you feel when you have your period, so I based it on the people around me and just went on with life and it actually started getting worse as I got older but more so last year. The week before my period my insides would start to feel like they were on fire and very sore like somebody kicked me or punched me in the gut. Then I would get my period and it would last 8 days and be horrifically heavy and you'd be so sick and then the whole week after, up to two weeks after sometimes, I would be, again, with this super sore gut. And that was completely new, as a whole new phase for me and I would get maybe four good days and then the next period would start. So it became pretty cumbersome to deal with that. It started affecting work and life because I would go to work and I'd start to get this sore feeling and it would always start near my ovaries but I always thought it was my appendix. That was "Something's wrong, it's got to be my appendix," because, like I said, I never thought it would be my reproductive system acting up. Joanna: So I work in the school district. I work with kids so I'm always on my feet, very active. I'm a very energetic person so I like to participate with the kids and last year, May, I started with this extra pain and I couldn't function with the kids. I would miss about three days a week from work. That would be going in and begging the principal, "Can I please go home? I can't even carry my own weight right now. I'm in pain." So eventually I had to make the call and put my notice in because I wasn't reliable anymore in my job and started doing test after test, seeing doctor after doctor, and every test was coming back "There's absolutely nothing wrong with you. Your imaging looks perfect. The ultrasound, the CRT scans, X-rays, everything is great." And I was doing two CT scans a month. You'd do it, you'd go home, the pain would intensify, you end up back at the urgent care and another CT scan. Eventually they started calling me an enigma saying, "There's nothing wrong, it's all in your head. Yeah, you're saying there's this pain but we're not seeing what you're saying." So that went up from early June last year until September I had the gynaecologist finally say, "Well, I don't even think it's gynaecological. I'm gonna send you to a GI. I think it's in your gut." And the reason was I was experiencing a ton of gut pain every time I had my period. That bruising was all in my gut. Joanna: So of course I went and the GI wants to do a colonoscopy. So, okay. I prepped for that, which is, by the way, horrible. I mean, you're already not feeling well and then they put you through this 10 day prep regiment and you go through the procedure. And that came back nothing's wrong, because internally they couldn't see anything wrong. I ended up having a very close friend of mine through church that had just gone through a hysterectomy. When she was able to come back to church everyone was kind of hearing that something's wrong with Joanna. "She's not well," "We're praying for her," but she didn't quite know what was going on, so she sat down with me and she said, "Do you mind telling me what are your symptoms? What are you really feeling?" So I started telling her about the pain, that my legs would go numb, my back would hurt, my intestines were always sore, and the ovaries and the period were horrible, and her first reaction was, "Have you ever asked about Endometriosis?" Because that's what she had. She had stage four and unfortunately did not know about things like this. She's one of the ones that ended up getting a hysterectomy from it all. But I had never thought about it. Joanna: I grew up in Canada and would go to the doctor and tell them about the period and Endometriosis never came up. It was never a word we would hear about, so I never had reason to think about it. So I said I would go to the gynaecologist again and asked to see if you could check for Endometriosis. And apparently there's no test. You have to get a surgery. Well, I had to go to three different doctors to convince them to do a surgery. It's not like everybody goes in asking, "Can you cut me open? I want you to see what's going on." And finally I kind of have to lie. It wasn't a full lie but I had to then think back about my family history and say "I don't know if it's Endometriosis but my grandmother had severe pain and my mom had this and my sister had this. And fibroids run in the family." And as soon as that came up, then he goes, "Okay, I don't think it's what you have but I'm willing to go in." So I had a [?] [00:07:46] booked a month after the colonoscopy for endometriosis diagnostic. And that was in November of 2016. And when he went in I remember coming out of the anaesthesia. You know they say you're not going to remember what we tell you. I remember everything he told me. He came and he sat down and he goes, "Well, I have good news and bad news. The good news is you were right, we found Endometriosis. The bad news is by the time we've done the surgery it's so far gone that there is nothing we can do about it." He said, "I was able to burn off a bit on your ovaries but it's all over your intestines and we can't burn your intestines." Which I'm glad they didn't try to cut my intestines. Wendy: I'm glad, too. Yes. Joanna: I just remember crying. It was so overwhelming to hear that you have this. Sorry, I'm going to cry now. It's really overwhelming to hear that you have a disease that they could have done something about but they refuse to help you. That's kind of what the medical system is. But yeah, so I had these pictures and I just remember going home and staring at these pictures of my gut, black, covered with these black blood things. I can't even describe it. It looks like you're invaded with something. It wasn't just a little bit, so of course it's overwhelming. And to know coming out of it that you have to live with this pain now. That's their theory. So I didn't take very well to the surgery and I don't do well on the drugs so I was very sick from that and two weeks later he had me come back in to go over things in more detail. The first thing he wanted to push was Lupron. I have a friend who has breast cancer and she was on Lupron. I told them, "This is what you give cancer patients." He says, "Yes, it's a very strong drug, but in your case this is what you need to go on." And he started describing the side effects, and it was like if I take this you're telling me the pain might get better but I'm going to have all these other symptoms that sound terrible. I mean, it was you're going through menopause, you might throw up, you weight gain weight or lose. Just all these things, and I got scared, and I think it was really good that I got scared or else I would have taken it. I've always just done what the doctors tell me because they're doctors and they're supposed to know better and they're supposed to be there to help us. So I had told him, and kind of just based back on my friend, she was taking a very natural route so I told him that day that I wanted to hold off on the Lupron if I could and seek alternative medicine. And the moment I said that he wrote me off. He literally said if that's what you’re going to do I can't work with you anymore. That those are not doctors. They have no medical educations like we do. We do not consider them to be actual doctors. So I said okay. There was nothing I could do. I was actually shocked that that was his response. So basically, "If you don't want my drugs that's it." So I went home very upset and my husband sat down with me and said, "You know well. You want to do the alternative medicine." We hadn't found a natural path yet but I started doing research online and I just typed in "healing Endometriosis naturally" and lo and behold one of the first things that popped up was your book. And at the time I was too cheap to buy it. At the time we didn't have Kindle, so I said, "Ooh, if I get Kindle I can get a free 30 day trial and download the book." Joanna: And I, despite having been a teacher and now being a substitute teacher, I really have to be interested in a book to sit there and read a whole book." And I started reading your book and I couldn't put it down. I literally read it in like a day. It was like I was reading my own story. Everything I had found online -- there was all this do this, do this, do this, but there was nobody that really made me feel like "This is what I went through, this is what I'm feeling, and this is what worked for me." And I was skeptical because I'd never believed in taking a natural route. I've really always been a Western medicine type of person, but the book really spoke to me and just opened my eyes to the possibility that, wow, if this is true I can fix things without having to go the medical route. So we started going through and I saw you had the cookbook, so I also downloaded that. I ended up buying both. I actually read your book three or four times because I'd always go back through and highlighting things and making note of what I could do. So I decided to try to follow the book to see if I could fix myself that way. I actually had not seen that you had the foundation program yet, so it was very hard. It was not easy to follow in the beginning because you're so used to eating what you want, eating how much you want to eat. I loved bread, I loved fast food. We went out and ate all the time. So for me to see no dairy, no soy, no sugar, it was like "WHAT?" Joanna: Luckily I have a very loving husband who said, "Okay, if we're going to do it, I'll do it with you." So we started slow and the first thing we took out was the gluten, and it took about a month to finally get past that you're always feeling hungry and you're always wanting something fatty and sugary. But by the end of the month we were actually able to take away all four of those things, and within 8 weeks of starting, on my own, following what I was trying my best to on your book, I started getting a lot of relief. And the biggest thing that excited me was the [?] [00:15:03]. That was the first thing that kind of popped out to me. I did my own research on it and I said it seems like it's okay to take. So I started with 40,00 for like a week. And I believe I had emailed you. I did not expect you to email me back. You emailed back and you had told me you started with 40 and went up to 80, so I did that. I was reading in the book about how it can break the adhesions down. One of the things that had come out of the surgery in November was that we were infertile because Endometriosis had completely sealed my tubes shut and the surgeon had come in and said that if you ever want a chance at having kids, you would have to try IBF and even that would probably not be successful. Like, that's how bad your tubes are. That was really hard because what I failed to mention was that what initially put me into the doctor was we were starting to consider having children and I had this pain and they said before we look at fertility, we ought to check this pain out. And that's how it progressed towards what it is now. Joanna: So it was very emotionally really hard. We're in our 30's now, and to hear that there's maybe no chance. Part of looking up the Serrapeptase, I came upon a lot of women saying that they had taken it and they had done a test. It's called an HSG test where they put a dye in and they check your tubes with this dye. It's like an ultrasound. Most of them, I was reading, they were saying, "My tubes are open." I was super skeptical and I said I'm going to try -- Wendy's book says 12 weeks on Serrapeptase and good things can happen. So twelve weeks later. I started January, the Serrapeptase, and then late February, early March -- I want to say it was the first week of March -- I made an appointment to do an HSG test. And here you have to go to reproductive clinic. It's a whole little process, but knowing my history the doctors there were pretty skeptical that what they're gonna see is maybe it's a little better but it's probably the same situation. So I was going with the same idea, and I remember doing the test which was, for me, actually pretty painful. I don't know why it hurt. Some women say it doesn't hurt, but other women it does. It feels like you have this burning liquid going up, because they take a balloon and expand your uterus. It's not a comfortable test to put yourself through, but it was worth it if it came back positive. The doctor was in there and I'm like clenching trying to get through it, and she stopped and she goes, "It looks perfectly fine. Your flow is so good." So the dye flows through the tube and she goes, "Everything is passing through. So your tubes are good." She goes, "There's a little bit of residue from scar damage, but it's not blocking anything.”

I just remember being so happy. That was one of the best news we'd received since all of this had happened. It was just really good to know that, wow, now we have a chance to have kids. This Endometriosis can be stopped and things can get better. So after that was when I had, somehow, online, I had just happened to be going through stuff online. Your book popped up again and below it said Foundation Program. And I don't know how I didn't notice it before and I clicked on it and realised I could work one on one with you. And at that point your book had helped me so much, I was really excited to be able to have the opportunity to work with you because I knew I could get more than from just the book. And so yeah, I started working with you -- I don't even remember if it was May or June. Wendy: Beginning of June, I think it was. Joanna: Okay. And I probably wouldn't have done it if things had continued to go well, but after the HSG, about a month after or so, at the end of April, I remember emailing you saying something's wrong. My pain is coming back and I'm not quite sure I'm following everything that I'm on, but it's like everything's reversing. I'm going backwards rather than forwards and I was seeing a natural path at the same time because I figured I've gone away from believing in doctors but now I'm listening to everything the natural path is telling me because how can natural stuff hurt? Unfortunately, the natural path -- So I had done a blood test that tested everything, all my vitamins, all my hormones, and it came back that my DHEA levels, which is a hormone that you produce naturally in your body, were low. So she decided to prescribe me DHEA, which I actually in the office asked her, "Does this have any side effects?" And her response was, "No. If you take too much your liver's just going to detox it and out it goes," and whatever. Actually, I was on DHEA way before that, in January. It was about four months I was taking it for, but the effects did not hit me until April. And it was you that mentioned after starting the program, when you looked at what the natural path had me on, you said, "Oh my goodness! You're on DHEA what?" and I had never -- even though I questioned what the medical doctors were trying to put me on, I never questioned the supplement. Joanna: And in the beginning of June when we started you told me, "You need to stop right away." And I did not. So you said you need to look it up and when I looked it up I was shocked to find out that DHEA increases your estrogen levels immensely. It is considered a steroid so for men it basically takes estrogen and it converts to testosterone and they use it as a replacement for steroids. But for women it basically doubles up your estrogen level. And when you have Endometriosis you don't want to be doing that. And I had come across that article I shared with Wendy that there was experiments done on mice and it showed that they were on DHEA for 16 days. They were put on 16 milligrams, which is a lot for a mouse -- for 15 days I was on 10 to 20 milligrams a day for four months -- and they all had massive cysts in their ovaries. And that just hit me, and the reason I'm saying that is about mid june the pain got so bad that I ended up having to go to the ER and they found cysts on my ovaries. Again, I thought it was my appendix going, but no. I had a cyst on my right side. One had ruptured and one had not and it was causing immense pain. I couldn't walk. I couldn't do anything. Function. And I remember you telling me, "Even though you stopped the DHEA it's still gonna be in your system. Joanna: So the fact of me seeing this research article and now here I am. I've been on this stuff. It's only been four months and I have cysts. I believe that it is what helped to cause that. The gynaecologist disagrees, of course. So that happened and then it went from "you have a cyst" to "you have a twisted ovary." And then it went from "you have a twisted ovary" to "it could be something else." "It could be your [Indiscernible] [00:24:09] Endometriosis. So we were back on the Endometriosis bandwagon again and again the emotions hit because I was doing so good. I was back to work, back to normal life. I would do my photography. Everything was good and then I got hit and life just went down. It was really hard. I don't think I've ever cried so much as I've cried in the last two months. Joanna: So I ended up -- because the theory was the ovary was twisting, it was laparoscopic was the answer I guess, to untwist it in case the ovary was dying. So I did not want to do laparoscopic. I started doing the [Indiscernible] [00:25:00] massage for a bit ,and it would help but it wouldn't take all the pain away, and so I finally agreed to do the laparoscopic. Of course they go in -- and this was just recently, two and a half, three weeks ago on the 20th of July -- I went in for laparoscopic and I came out and the doctor said, "So there's no Endometriosis that we can see." She said there was one thing on your uterus and one thing on your bladder, and their tiny. They're like peas, tiny little things. And she goes, "There's nothing on your intestines at all." And it was mind blowing to hear that. What do you mean there's nothing? They said there's nothing that can be done. I've been doing this thing with Wendy but there's got to be something! She said, "No, there wasn't," and I think that was one of the best news that we had gotten. Joanna: It’s still shocking to know that here you were told only a few months back in November that once it hit your guts like that, that's it, you've got to be on these heavy drugs and there's nothing we can do. The likelihood it can spread, get into your lungs -- they really scare you. And now to hear it's basically in remission state, it's going away, was just amazing to hear. So it really just proved -- and in a short while, January to July, everything cleared up. But I'll show you the pictures. I don't know if you'll be able to see them well. That was my ovary in November. Completely white, marbleized, and the black dots on it, the stuff he burnt off. I mean, even to see your ovaries scalded like that is not [Indiscernible] [00:27:13] to look at. And then it's really hard to tell, but that's part of my gut and it's really black. It looks like it's black and blue. And I have a couple of other pictures I couldn't find, but basically a lot of my gut looked like that, just purpley black growth. Joanna: So when I went in and I got my new pictures -- so let me find it. This is in the exact same area. That's my ovary now. It's got a little bit of white, but it is not a marble. It's pink and fleshy and squishy like it should be. And my gut, the same area of my gut, is up here and it's completely normal. It was really amazing to see. I can't put it into words. It's just really exciting. i can't even find the one now. Oh, here we go. So this is not bad. It might look bad, but that was black before it looked white and the reason it's white is the Endometriosis left and it kind of left a little shadow of itself. So that is scarring but I know if we continue with the program that can all go away because obviously it's gone away on the other parts. So yeah, it's just been really good. I still battle with the end result of adhesions. It's left behind a lot of adhesions but with the myio-fascial massage and all that, I know it can be fixed. And I'm still taking my serapeptase. So I'm on this road now to being so close to back to where it was, which is super exciting. Wendy: Well, it's fantastic to hear your story and I'm so pleased that you're sharing this story because I know it's been an emotional rollercoaster for you, where you've been where doctors tell you there's only one route and it just feels quite hard to follow with the surgery and drugs and there's no way out. And then you take a way out and you speak to a natural path and you think you're doing the right thing and they don't understand them to be choices[?] [00:29:53] so they're giving you something that's feeding Endometriosis. Because not a lot -- natural paths promote, it's fantastic, but unless they understand Endometriosis and how expensive it is to [Indiscernible] [00:30:05] estrogens or any other traditional estrogens that you can blame it so quickly, and of course that's what happened with your insides, is they [Indiscernible] [00:30:13] but equally as well, I do remember you telling me when you went in that your cysts had gone as well. Joanna: Yeah, they were. So basically my reproductive area looked really good. No cysts, my appendix looked great. My appendix in November was marbleized. It had been attacked at one point and he didn't remove it because he said he didn't see any growths, but it was all white as well. But she said my appendix looked, great, my ovaries looked good except for the two little things they found. They did burn them off or whatever they do. And the gut looked great, so yeah, it was good. She mentioned the adhesion. That she could see, which I kind of expected that that would be there, but that's a small part of everything else. Wendy: Absolutely. And I know that you were reticent about going for the surgery, but you were in so much pain because the DHEA had inflamed your insides [Indiscernible] [00:31:18], which as we've found out is now partial bowel obstruction as part of the adhesions. You were always frightened and scared into having the surgery, weren't you, which you were reticent. You didn't really want to do. But we've joked about it afterward saying I'm so glad you did because I have had women say, "Have you got surgical proof that your program works?" and I'm going, "Well, normally the proof is the reduction and elimination of pain and symptoms." That's proof enough, women coming out of bed, having normal periods. And it's being normal, like a day and a half period or very light. No clots, not bloating no period pain. That whole shebang. And then as I say you've gone in and -- so how does that feel to kind of see those photographs? Joanna: Yeah it's good. It's weird to be looking at a photograph like that, but  it was actually one of the prettiest pictures I've seen in awhile. It was really good, and I've actually even never seen my husband that excited since we got married. Because really the doctor didn't even talk to me first. She went to them because I was still coming out of anaesthesia and when he came to see me, my husband, he just had this big smile. I was crying partially because of that but also because we did find there was a little bit of a bowel obstruction because the adhesions had twisted my bowels a bit. But we are working on that. But he goes, "I know you're overwhelmed that there's still this pain in your side a little bit from the bowels, but this is so exciting." He was so happy to see that. And I think that's a big part of what this program has really helped, too, is it's really hard to deal with Endometriosis. It's not a disease that people consider a disease unless they have it. It's something that I have even battled to talk to women about because I've had a lot of women come to me and say, "I have Endometriosis and it's not that big of a deal. Why are you making it such a big deal? It does not hurt the way that you're saying." Joanna:So I think even as women, the education is not there, to know that there are different stages and it really can debilitate a person. Because it completely knocked me -- I was bedridden for weeks. It really does affect you. So that was hard. You feel very alone, which what I really loved about the program is not only having you, but you do these conferences and we get to see these other women we're talking to face to face and it's just so nice. It's really refreshing to have that, but it's also given me the confidence to build a better relationship with my husband because now we understand what are we really dealing with. It's not just, "Oh, she's whining again. Her period. Okay, whatever." And for him to even notice things like, "Hey, you remember last year you were having eight day long periods and it's like three days now and you're fine?" After surgery I was scared because two weeks after I was getting my next period. I hadn't had one in between and I actually called the doctor and said, "I don't want to do this. I'm on this natural path, but I think I need you to give me some painkillers because when my period comes it's going to be bad." Because I had to stop all my supplements I was on because they had me on a lot of things. And my period came and it was fine. I mean, it hurt a little because I had surgery pain and stuff, but the cramping was an hour, maybe two hours -- gone. And the period was generally really good. It lasted three or four days and that was it. And I was expecting to be in excruciating pain, so it just goes to show it just changes you so much overall. So it's been so amazing. It's been a really amazing journey. Wendy: Well now remember when you said that you were expecting your periods and the cause of all the drugs morphine and anaesthetics and stuff you really thought like, "Brace myself. I'm going to be in a big thunderbolt of pain." And that in itself is very interesting isn't it, because how does that differ from the periods you used to have before? Joanna: Oh, they were excruciating. Like I said before, I remember even in high school having to call my dad to leave work and come and pick me up and you are using every ounce of your strength to walk out the door because you cannot feel your legs. And you're getting this wave of pain and it was intense. And it was always like that. And to go from -- Wendy: I remember your shock when you're like, "And my periods came and no pain and I think that's really wonderful. Full credit to you for following the program, following the suggestions and being consistent and persistent with it because even in spite of the surgeon frightening you into having this surgery, which I knew you didn't want to have, so much good has come from it, really, in your case because you've seen your insides. You have physical proof of your insides healing. Isn't it interesting even with everything that's going on, your periods have improved because you've got such great healing in there and you've been removing systematically the inflammatory factors and swapping them out with things that re soothing and healing so the body's healing naturally. How does it feel? Do you think that that doctor six months ago, who pretty much wrote you off -- if you could speak to him now -- Joanna: Well, I don't know. If he sees this. [laughter] No, but you almost want to go and wave the pictures in their face and say look, I did this all naturally. But you know what, I still feel like with how stubborn some of the medical system can be that they could still say, "That doesn't prove anything. It wasn't as bad as you think it was anyway." Wendy: You're right, they would dismiss it, because I did the same when I got better. I went back to my doctor and back to my surgeon and said, "You need to share this with other women." And they dismissed me with the back of their hands. I think you'd got referred to as an enigma, and what I got referred to too. But I think when  you understand the body's always wanting to heal itself and if it's not healing there's something stopping it. And then you're looking for what's stopping my body from healing. And that, to me, was my first -- when I was lying in my bedroom for three years in a gross, dreadful state with all but giving up home of carrying on and I got a cut on my finger and I noticed it was healing. And then I started to think, if that's healing, why are my insides not better[?] [00:38:46]? And then understand, as you said earlier, it's an estrogen-dominant condition. It's a hormone imbalance, there's lots of inflammation, so if you systematically -- and of course, as you say, people do normally need support because you're in pain, you're struggling just to get through the day, and that's where the foundation program came about because people were emailing me saying, "I read your book. It's great. It's starting to help but I've hit a wall," or, "I need more help," or whatever. So what particular aspects do you like? Is there a lot of emotional support, would you say, in the foundation program that you felt had been beneficial? Joanna: I think it's everything. I feel like you're a combination of a nutritionist, health coach, life coach. Yeah, it's really helped with my emotions to -- I mean, you pushed me to start meditation, which I hated doing and now I really appreciated it. The journaling was horrific, but now it really helped me to get my brain wrapped around things. It helps me to have a method of venting, because as a woman fighting a disease like this it can be overwhelming on those around you and you can get whiney and you can get complaining and sometimes you can need a break. And I saw that, that it was getting a lot for my husband and my family to handle, and having the journal kind of gives you that break too where you're not complaining out loud. It gave me an outlet to put my thoughts down and I was starting to even figure more stuff out about how I was feeling and my symptoms and connections between, "Hey," I wrote, "I had a really stressful day and my pain level was like a 9." And it kind of helps you become that investigator that you spoke about. Joanna: And then on the other hand, just the nutrition side, I know that I can come to you and say, "This got recommended to me. What do you think about it?" and just having tht person to go back and forth with really makes a difference. You can do research online, but it does make a difference to have a person to speak to. So yeah, I loved it for all aspects of what it's done. The friendships it's created -- I feel like Susan, who's in the program right now, even though I've never met her, it's really enjoyable to be able to sit and talk with her every two weeks with her. So you kind of create a community. Wendy: Yes. And as you said that's so important. You've said it a couple of times and I know I felt that you feel so alone in this disease. I think someone has cancer, everybody seems to understand what cancer is and there's a degree of sympathy that people get with that condition, whereas Endometriosis, I know you had people saying it's an enigma, you've got such a small cyst, why is it causing you so much pain -- you're always being pulled into questioning. You have ot fight to be believed. For people to come together who are going through that -- that's why I start these programs every couple of months with people coming together, starting at the same point and going through it together so you don't feel alone, you feel that you're all in this together and it makes you feel like you can do this. Especially on the bad days, especially on the weeks you're just like "I can't be bothered" and "I really want to give up," because it is a twelve week program and you need to keep going through the program to get through. Joanna: And it's not easy. There's a lot in the book about you. Like, Wendy's telling me to keep doing this and I just want to stop. Wendy: Of course. But that's where I come in. I see myself as your coach, your champion, running along beside you saying, "Come on, you can do this," because I know how hard it was because I've been there and that's why I've created the program with the different levels of support, to say you can do this. And I never said it was going to be easy but it's absolutely worth it to get the results. Joanna: It is. As soon as you get that -- it could take four or five weeks, but it just takes a little change in your pain to realize something's changing, or to be able to come off painkillers. That's a huge thing, because they really don't make you feel great, and you don't realize that until you stop taking them. But yeah, I mean, I'd encourage any woman who, if you just even have periods that just don't feel right, to question it and get it looked at and question everything now. I learned after the natural path thing to even question the supplements and I even find every time I google a recipe or supplement or something, I always put Endometriosis at the end of my search to see does it clear up estrogen. What does it do? Is it a phyto-estrogen? Is it a xeno-estrogen? Wendy: And do you find now because you've got the education, education webinars through the program on the membership site, do you find that you feel more confident now with what's going in your body and you understand it's effect? Joanna: I definitely do. I actually feel like I go in with more knowledge when I go in to see -- so I'm seeing a new natural path now and everything she suggests I say we need to look up how that affects estrogen. She says, "Why?" Because I have an estrogen-dominant illness and I know there are a lot of things that we might not think -- for example, turmeric. They say take turmeric and turmeric is a phyto-oestrogen. So just little things that we eat or put in our bodies. So it's actually been kind of fun to go in and say, "Hey, I actually know this about my disease. This is the type of blood work I need you to test." I didn't mention that the reason she did the DHEA is my bloodwork did not come out that I had extremely high estrogen. She did not look at all of the different parts, I guess, which is what we get from your program and there's no actual estrogen. There's three actual components that make it up and if we had done that then we would have seen. So later down the road, the next blood work, yes, it showed it, but initially it didn't which was why the DHEA was prescribed because "you don't have an estrogen problem." Wendy: Well, that said I think, again, medical profession are trained in a certain way. They're not trained in nutrition. Natural paths don't understand, again, the hormonal perimetar of women with Endometriosis and don't tend to -- what the program does is look at the whole of you, not a one result or a one symptom. It looks at all of the different aspects together and then forms a picture, and that's where, when you and I are working together, we're working together as detectives, Sherlock Holmes going, "Right, let's look at this a bit closer," because there's always a reason why you're getting a symptom or something while you're going through the program. And I think what I've really noticed with you since the beginning of the program is your confidence. Perhaps you could share with people how you felt about coming on just 10 weeks ago? Joanna: I mean, I did not want to show my face. I think we were doing a conference call or something. Yes, I work with children. I can be super outgoing with kids, but when it comes to something like this -- I mean, I'm still nervous right now. Don't get me wrong. You're exposing yourself. You are. And I know this is going to be public, so you're vulnerable, but I feel more happy to share it because you do get that confidence and the excitement gives you that confidence and the knowledge gives it to you. So I want to help other women because, like, I said, I thought I was doing great and it literally hit me. I went one day fine and the next day suddenly -- Wendy: But you were really unlucky because you were doing great and it was just an unfortunate thing that your natural path didn't understand Endometriosis. Joanna: Yeah, but this is even before your book. So last year, it went from super active to Endometriosis hit me hard. That can happen to anybody and you don't realize it. I think it's important as soon as you start feeling symptoms you really start to look into it and what is causing it, what's going on. It's worth the effort on your part as a person to look out for yourself. Wendy: And what would you say to women who are considering the foundation program now? Joanna: I would definitely recommend it. It is worth it. It's worth, if anything, having that support network. I mean, I know you have the advanced program, so I know there's a possibility you're not going to be 100% fixed at the end of the 12 weeks, but what it did for me -- I think we're on week 11 now. We're almost done -- what it did for me, it gave me the tools that I didn't now to have. I wouldn't have even thought to take -- I had never heard of Serapeptase. I had never heard of the protein powders and never considered them. Wendy: I think that's it I think that's what my aim was with the programs, everything in the book. But the program was to give you a toolbag. A toolbag can be the support network, give you multi-learning at different levels. You have the webinars, audios, handouts, downloads, Facebook group, group Q&A calls every fortnight, the one on ones with me. So there was that level of support, because normally people stop off really well with great enthusiasm and they hit a wall or life gets in the way and that's where they need that additional support. Joanna: Yeah, and I think that's kind of hitting the nail on the head. If I have to encourage anyone with the program, it would be you will have moments where you hit a wall and you will feel like it's not working or you're going backwards. It's almost that saying of it's going to get worse before it gets better, and you do go through that within the first couple weeks. Wendy: I'd like to call that being tested. You're being tested as if to say "do you really want to get well?" because this program works if you work it. Joanna: Yeah, and you have to push through. Wendy: But sometimes that's where the support comes in and it's normally six to eight weeks before people start to see the benefits, but it's that combination of factors with one had coming down through the layers of the onion and looking for the core of the information, and on the other hand putting great seeds in to get great roots of nutrition and amino acids and vitamins and minerals. So you're feeding your body with everything it needs to heal itself whilst removing and swapping out what's causing the symptoms. Joanna: And you feel better. Like, food wise, I told you I love food. I love fast food. I love everything, but now we eat so much better and we call it fancy food because you're having really good quality things that you would go to a restaurant and pay $50 or whatever a plate for and it's by no means that much when you make it at home. But you do start eating really well and it can be really fun. It is a really fun journey once you can get past -- stop focusing on your pain and your Endometriosis and start focusing on you getting better. Wendy: Absolutely. I think you told me a funny story about your husband as well. It was a bit funny about the food to start with and then he went out and had some horrible food and then came back and -- Joanna: Yeah. We had been going gluten free and dairy free. I'd cook him his huge meal and 20 minutes later he'd be starving. That's something we learned. Our body is just taking in everything, so for the first little while like 20 minutes in you're like, "Man, I just had dinner and I'm hungry again." But he hated that feeling and he goes, "I need my sugar. I need my gluten. That's what made me feel good!" I said "Okay, there's nothing physically wrong with you. You can go back on sugar and gluten. I don't care. Thank you for being there for me, but I'm good now. You can go back." He went out for a burger or something and he goes, "Ugh, I feel terrible. I'm never eating gluten again!" So he's actually away on a work trip and he's eating all gluten free, dairy free, soy free, because he says he feels so much better. And he's not the one that has an illness. So I think it's good for everybody. Wendy: Well that's it. I think the program does have rippling effects. I know families and partners get involved as well to help support the necessary lifestyle change that needs to be made. It has rippling effects out to everybody, which is fantastic. Joanna: Yeah, and I think when it comes to doctors, the hard thing is you have the foundation but you still have the doctor on the side. And I wouldn't say get rid of your doctor, but I think it's important -- like, what I had to do is I had to really search out a doctor that would listen, and I am blessed now that I am working with the surgeon that did this recent surgery. She's so supportive of me taking the natural route and she knows that my goal is to be as natural as possible. So yes, she would love me to take the medical medications if I agreed to, but she's okay. She goes, "I want you to try everything for you that you feel will work for you and I'll be here if -- " let's say, Wendy's program never worked, then they're there but it works. I can't say it doesn't work. So you need to seek out people that will hear you. Wendy: And I think that's what the aim of the program is, too, to widen your community of support on the other side as well and make sure that you have your voice, know that it's okay to say know, know that it's okay to ask questions because, again, our culture encourages people to be a good girl and a yes girl and kind of "Yes, Doctor. Whatever, Doctor." Too frightened to question and ask. And obviously when you're making that transition away from the conventional medical field and looking at natural routes, it can be a bit daunting, be a bit scary. Kind of take that responsibility. But that's where, again, I encourage women and if they are having to interact with their doctors in any capacity, even if it's just from a reassurance perspective to go "You're still there in the sidelines, aren’t you? Right. I'm going to teach you what is working for my body." And it's wonderful when you get doctors and surgeons -- I had a doctor who started using the same protocols and principals with people in his surgery, in his clinic, and he was emailing me going, "Wendy, this works!" and I'm going, "I know. I've been telling you this for months." It's wonderful when they start to listen, and if they're a good doctor or surgeon they'll be excited for you because the whole ethos of a doctor is to do no harm. That's their motto. Clearly their aim is to heal you, to help you to get better, not to make you worse, so if you are getting better I would hope a good surgeon or doctor who's supportive of your choice to take this route is happy that you're getting better, because surely that's the aim, not to keep you pumped full of drugs and painkillers. Joanna: Yeah, and you will find the ones that are like that, but there are good ones out there and you just have to be willing to let go of the one you have and search out. And you can. I'm sure everywhere there is someone that you can find. Wendy: But ultimately it's all about not having that requirement with a surgeon or doctor. Joanna: Yeah, exactly. Wendy: It's all about you knowing your body better than anybody. I don't care what they're trained in or how many years they've been in the field. It does not interest me one jot because the women I work with, they know their bodies better than anybody else. They have lost that relationship with their body. Joanna: Well, prior to my downturn in June, I didn't go to the doctor for the four months, and I was going a lot before that. So, yeah. And I think one of the biggest things that you've really helped me with is learning to say no to people. Not just doctors. To just people and things in my life, because I think I shared in the beginning of the program -- I love to help. No matter how I'm feeling, I'll say yes. We had a friend move and I was feeling terrible and I went and I helped them move and I remember you saying, "What's wrong with you? Why did you do that?" I couldn't say no. And it's taken me awhile to get there, but it's really important to listen to your body and know when to rest and to know when to tell people, "Hey, I'd love to be there but I just can't right now. I need to look after myself. I'm not doing well. When I'm better, yes, I'll be there." So that's been a really big help, because for women, if you have kids -- I don't have children, but for those who have children, you feel like there's a lot of demand on you. Wendy: Yeah, absolutely. Well, I think you've had an amazing journey so far. I've admired your commitment to yourself even from the beginning to implement the book, and again, just keeping moving forward, keeping being consistent and persistent, listening to your body -- you’ve had life throw obstacles in your path, but you've bounced back and you're living to tell the tale, which is fantastic. Joanna: I feel thankful to you. Wendy: Aw, well it's great working with people like yourself. You're really committed. Because the program doesn't work -- people poke it with a little stick and think it's a fad because it is a lifestyle thing. I refer to it as a new path. It is a pathway that once you're on you can't revert back to eating rubbish, you can't revert back to all the various stuff because then your symptoms will return, but you can see from the photographic evidence, which is so exciting, that if you do make the changes your body responds accordingly, and that's really exciting. Joanna: Yeah, but even without photographic evidence, you were saying like with eating, I have cheated. I've had a bite of something that's got gluten and you feel it right away. Your body starts to talk to you and that's actually pretty neat in itself. Wendy: Exactly. It's having that confidence of knowing what it's saying and what is happening, making those connections. Thank you so much for coming to chat with us today. I know that lots of women will take great hope and comfort from this and this is why I was so pleased that you were prepared to come and chat with me because I think people think, oh, well it worked for Wendy but it's not going to work for me, or it might have worked for the women on her testimonial page -- probably paid them to say that, which I didn't. Previous students as well. Just the very fact that you've had the HSG test, your cysts disappeared, your ovaries are better, your uterus is better, your intestines are better, and even your period. I mean, wow. In amongst all of that your period improved. I felt that was something people would want to hear because it's a lot of people, if they're maybe listening to this in their bed or bath going, "Oh, there's no hope," with all these drugs with terrible side effects I want to see that their is hope and here Joanna is living testament, as I am and other women, and I just want to thank you so much for taking the time out. It was a wonderful chat. Joanna: You're welcome. Thank you for having me. Wendy: No problem at all. Yeah, so thanks very much".

Wendy: Good afternoon. My name is Wendy K Laidlaw from Heal Endometriosis Naturally.com. I'd like to thank Susanne for being with me today. She's agreed to be interviewed about her experience with Heal Endometriosis Naturally book (Heal Endometriosis Naturally Without Painkillers, Drugs or Surgery, and the online 12 Week Foundation Program. 

Welcome, Susanne. Susanne: Thank you very much. Wendy: Great to have you here. You look lovely and healthy today all the way in Sweden there. And so yes, thank you so much for agreeing to be interviewed. It's always such a joy to have a chat with women who have obviously experienced the book and experiences of the program. And I just wonder -- this is where I can ask you some questions about your experience. So maybe you could just tell people a little bit about your background, just how you first heard about me, about the book and then a bit more about the 12-week foundation program. Susanne: Okay. It's so much so -- it's difficult to know where to start, but my background is that 14 years ago I had the first flare of endometriosis and actually I was lucky enough to get diagnosed quite soon. I only had it for a couple of months before I got my diagnosis and that was through [stutters] Wendy: Laparoscopy? Susanne: That's right. Susanne: Then they took away three cysts. That's what they could see and after that they wanted to put me on a medicine to get me into the menopause. And I did some reading about it and I was working with health, actually, some alternative therapies, and the side effects of the drug they wanted to give me -- I can't remember its name -- but it was horrible, I thought, and back then there was not so much information on the internet but there were a few, what do you call it -- not blogs but...losing the name. It was a group of people having endometriosis. They were connected and you could only see the bad things, how horrific everything was. When they got this medication they got better from the endometriosis but they got a horrific side effects so they couldn't go to work anyway. And I thought that's not my way. I'm not gonna do it that way and so I went to a couple of different alternative therapists and they led me into thinking about if it had something to do with my stomach. And I usually had a bloated stomach. 

I was sensitive for different kind of foods. I knew that, and when I asked the doctors to see if there was a connection between my intestines, the flora in my intestines with bacterias and the endometriosis. They said, "That costs too much money. We can't do that. You need to get me scientific studies that there is a connection before we can do that kind of research on you." And then I thought, well, I need to do this my own way, and through hair analysis I got to know that I had too much manganese in my body. It was actually 80 times as much as you're supposed to have and we found that I was from our water. There's a filter but it needed to be adjusted to get the manganese, so a nutritionist helped me with detoxing my body. I was practicing yoga to be able to stand the pain. And that actually helped me get well, so now after having got more and more knowledge about estrogen dominance and everything around, I think that it was not just the water that was the problem but the way I treated my body helped me out of the condition. So I've had 13 very good years after that. I've had two kids. I did have three miscarriages in between the kids, but two healthy kids and I thought that endometriosis, although the doctor says that it's a chronic disease, I thought that that's not in my life anymore. I was so worried that my daughter might get it so I started to do some reading last autumn so that I could have more lot knowledge about it. And the scary part is that my endometriosis actually flared up again after not having felt those specific feelings of pain that endometriosis gives me. And so I thought well, I've been well once. I just need to do the same things again and I will get better again. But it didn't come back quickly and I was a bit stressed I thought what what is wrong and I didn't know what triggered the endometriosis this time. And so I was searching the internet and I found your page and your really nice offer to get the book for free so I sent for it. I started reading it and this time I was worrying that I might not get rid of the endometriosis if I don't go in and do a surgery to take away the cysts. But when I read about serrapeptase and your experience with that, I thought great, that gives me hope again. And last time I went on a very strict diet. I didn't have any flour, not wheat, not any grains at all and this time when I read more about your experiences with wheat and gluten it was actually easier than last time. So I went back to a quite strict diet. And what else did I do? Well yes, I started to do some journaling just from reading your book. Not at all the three pages as you encouraged us to do now, but I started to write pain scores and what my activities were and what the outcome was and then I thought now it would be really nice to get a support, to get help to work it through, so that's why I entered the 12-week foundation program. Wendy: Yes, that was fantastic that you reached out. So when you applied for the Foundation Program I think you said that you were just trying to pick up from where you'd left off the last time. You had tried to manage it through diet and serrapeptase. So what in particular, when you're saying you wanted support, what did you feel that you needed support in? Because obviously you've been very successful before. You felt something had changed this time and you weren't able to identify the trigger, what had caused it to flare up, but what in particular made you sort of reach out for support through the foundation program? Susanne: Well, I knew that there was something that I missed, so I needed to have a detective to help me go through everything. I had -- when my new flare up--  it was in September 2017. And it was at worst in December, January, February. I was bedridden for eight days after my period and with pain scores from two to six so it wasn't as bad as 14 years ago. I was bedridden for two years - no, two weeks every month and the pain scores up to ten sometimes and that was such a depressing time. I had a really difficult time before I made it all turn. And I knew I don't want to go there this time. And when I started the program I was down at pain score from zero to two so I was quite good but I wasn't satisfied. I knew that life can be better. I do want to be able to plan what to do because that is so sad, not being able to plan anything, not being able to promise the kids to go there, to take them there, to be with them because you might need to stay on the sofa all day. 

So I thought, well, I need I need the support, a detective to know what is causing it this time. And I am really happy that I did join because during this time, during the 12 weeks, I was still making progress. In the beginning of the program it was more repetition what I had done before, and of course you have written it all in the book but you always get new things. You see things from a different perspective and it was very good and I felt better and stronger. But I think it was four weeks into the program and that my mother got very ill and we needed to go in and out to the emergency with her and it was very stressful and not being able to help her. She wasn't in a state that she she could take in what we are we were telling her. And that situation would probably have caused me to go backwards into the more difficult stage of the endometriosis because of all the stress and because you don't -- well, I shouldn't say you don't but I knew I know myself and if somebody needs my help I go there and help them and I skip the things that are important for me. For this stage I needed to to do certain things for myself and you helped me stay there to do the basic things and to actually coach me through this difficult time with my mother, and that's something that I never would have expected. I'm sorry. I get a bit emotional now. It was so good having you, to talk to you, and to support me in the Program well, I needed to take some some more digestive enzymes in that period and that's something that I wouldn't have been thinking about myself so it was great and actually now my mother is much better and her situation has stabilised and I think that the most things about her illness and your Program and support has helped me. It was actually very good timing. It has helped me to get more in contact with my emotions and to get much deeper into the relationship with my old family. Wendy: And I know that was very important to you because it was such a shame that you just started the (Foundation) Program and then this had happened. But equally, it was great that you were open to do the support, I keep I referring to it as the ‘oxygen mask’ scenario, where if you don't put on your own oxygen mask and don't look after yourself then you can't help other people. You then become very very ill. But a lot of women with Endometriosis are fantastic caregivers, very sensitive and perceptive, and aware of other people, and whilst that is a lovely quality, sometimes -- I know I was guilty of it too -- of doing it too excesses, where I had nothing left to give but I kept giving out to other people. 

And I think that certainly one aspect of the (Foundation) Program is remembering you have to look after yourself so you can help other people. And with your mother being so ill, and you're right, normally in these situations then you forget to eat and you forget to look after yourself and it's just remember to keep the basics. And full credit to you. You kept turning up on our calls and you kept turning to the group calls and you you kept going. Because I do believe that life throws you obstacles in the way. 

Sometimes on this new journey when you're trying to heal yourself and it can be very, very frustrating. So what about the emotional element you talked about; developing your relationship with your emotions? And I know and I'll share this for people who are listening -- you found it quite difficult to cry before, didn't you? You were saying that to show your emotions in that way felt, felt challenging for you and now you feel a bit more comfortable with yourself, to show your emotions. So thank you for being so vulnerable on this interview with us. But maybe you want to share a bit more about your relationship with your emotions now? Susanne: It's not easy to say words on it, but the journaling has helped me a lot to sort out my feelings and to structure my feelings and to to prioritize what to do next because in that situation where we were it's such a chaos. And nothing really works as usually. All the routines disappear> And the journaling and doing it in the morning, it was so good. And I know that you say in the beginning of the program that most people think that that's the most difficult thing to do. I thought it was difficult as well even though I started before, but then it was just some tiny notes. And after a while I did it in the evening you told me the importance of doing it in the morning. 

I started doing it in the morning after my yoga session, which is something that I wouldn't let go now. It helps me so much. But now I actually do it before my yoga. I do it right after waking up and I have -- I'm surprised that I do remember so many dreams. I think that it's almost impossible that I have dreamt as much as I do now earlier. But probably and I know now that if I do something else before my journaling, if I go around do things for 10 minutes, the dreams disappear. I don't remember them anymore. But right after you wake up they're still in your head and it's very interesting to -- most of them are strange. They don't make sense at all, but now I've been going back look through my journaling and I see that it's almost scary because I saw things in my dreams have actually developed to be true. To be honest, it doesn't make sense when you write this but after a while and you see that, wow, I could see that coming. And many science I I've been thinking about "Am I doing this right?" the journaling, but you said that there is no right and wrong. Just try not to be judgmental and I've had that in my mind. And, well, many of my emotions, they have as soon as I get the courage to write them down, they are not scary anymore. As soon as I write them I can work through them, see if there is something I need to do, somebody I need to contact, next step with somebody in a relationship, or if it's somebody something I just can let go. And quite often it is it is something that I don't need to carry around. I can just let it go and it gives me a sense of being much stronger, wiser, calmer, and by that it's been easier to talk to friends and relatives about emotions. When we talk it's not just about daily things. We tend to talk about more emotional things and and sometimes I cry. Sometimes my friend cries. Sometimes we both cry, but it's just nice. It's not any hysterical crying, just transforming feelings that are released and it feels so good. Wendy: Weah that's fantastic. And I should share that obviously, as you mentioned, the journaling is one part of the three daily basics or the foundation program and there are other layers of changes that we we make throughout the program, but the journaling was a challenge for you at the beginning and it is a challenge for everybody because normally when you've got endometriosis and your chronic pain and you're literally just getting through your life, just taking the time to journaling feels counterintuitive. But what the purpose is, and I'm glad to hear it's the same for you, is that you're getting in touch with your emotions. They're not big and they're not scary and you're learning to make the connection between what is happening in your emotions and how that manifests or how that resides in your body. And how would you say the program, the 12 week foundation program has helped you with regards to the relationship with your body? Susanne: I don't know. That was a difficult question. Wendy: Do you think through the journaling and through the education and the webinars that you maybe feel a bit more confident about your body? If there are any signs and symptoms in any aspect, you know have a better relationship with your body? Would you feel as well as your emotions? Susanne: Well, as I -- bodies are very much in my interest. I trust bodies to heal themselves. I've always had that in mind but it's always more difficult when it happens to yourself and you don't see the whole picture. It's easier to just stay in one corner and it's very easy to become a victim. And it's also difficult when it's a close friend or relative that is sick or ill or hurt in any way. It's so much easier to see what other people could do to get better. But, well, as I said, I've always had that with me since I was a kid, that the body is amazing at healing itself and now it was so good to have you as a as a coach to help me with this wider perspective to have a look at my body. Wendy: I think it was the multimodal approach to the program that was very important to me because I was unaware of how your emotions would affect your hormones and how symptoms and signs in your body could be different -- types of signs and symptoms that we're giving out different messages. Different emotions we're giving different messages in relation to the body, and I think that's what I hear from you and I hear a lot of the women in the program, is they develop this confidence, not only within their own instincts, their own emotions. They're more comfortable with their emotions, recognizing their emotions are messengers, they're telling them things, and then also been able to tune in to their body in a slightly different way than they've done before because the body before was invariably screaming out to them in pain when something was wrong but any pain and any symptoms are signs and messengers that there's something there that needs attention, and that's as you said earlier in the beginning, that's where you and I work together as detectives to try and fine-tune different things. But I think what's been lovely in your particular experience of the foundation program is, as you said, you really understood the body is an amazing thing, which is probably going to be hard for some women to hear if they're writhing around in pain and bad with endometriosis. They may not feel that loving towards their body right now, but when they learn what's causing the pain, because there's always a cause -- it's cause and effect -- if they identify what the causes are and remove that, then as you said the body is an amazing thing and will heal itself. But what I've heard from you is that you really appreciate the emotional component, which is not something that tends to get talked about, and dealing with that and then becoming more comfortable with your emotions and things So if anyone was listening and considering joining the foundation program, what what would you be saying to them? What are the key aspects, apart from the journaling and the power shakes thing? What, for you, has been most significant or important aspect that you would take away from the foundation program? Susanne: Well, I was thinking about joining for a long time. As new and had this belief about the body, and I knew that I had been healing myself before I thought I can do this on my own again. But after a while I thought, no, I don't have time to do this and when you're in pain you're tired and I thought I got some kind of dizziness, so it was difficult to do a lot of reading and studying on my own. And in the beginning it felt a little bit like I was giving up by joining, but as soon as I had joined the program I thought, "Oh shit, why didn't I do this earlier?" because it's such a relief to have somebody to talk to you with the experience of healing endometriosis yourself. And, well, you were talking about the emotions. I had done everything I thought possible with the products and physical stuff, but I didn't have a clue about the emotions. I did I did a lot of relaxation training and mental training because I know that mental training has helped me very much before, both in sports situations and in in daily life. But this is another way of looking at the emotions and, well, one of the first things, actually -- I think it happened the first week -- was that you advised me to include my family. And I thought that I don't want to drag them down into this boring and -- well, I can't really find the words for it, but this black hole that endometriosis is for me. I did everything to provide for them,  to have a good time. I just put myself in a sofa and said, "Did you go out and do this?" and my husband and my kids they went out to see friends and do fun things while I was in the sofa. And I didn't really inform the kids about what was going on and the first week I realized that I'm so stupid. Of course, of course they want to know what's wrong with me and as I'm as soon as I did that that was the first relief, actually. And I get emotional again. But I've got a six year old and a 11 year old and this six year old, he was listening but he thought, "Oh, can we do something else now?" when I was trying to tell them about the disease what I was doing and that I was getting help through this foundation program. But anyway, after that little family session it was so much easier and that was the first stage of my emotional trip, actually, to let them in and to -- well, the idea I'm not carrying the burden all by yourself. It's not a sign of being strong, trying to fix everything yourself. I have learned that it's more courageous and you're stronger if you can ask for help and if you're willing to take help. Wendy: Yeah, and I think he done so brilliantly in that regard because I know that that was very difficult for you at the beginning. And again, that's very common with women with endometriosis. I knew I was the same. It felt like a sign of weakness to ask for help. I felt like a burden. I felt like a drain. I didn't feel very good about myself either when I was in a chronic stages of pain and lying on in bed. But I think when you have the support to be able to say and explain it does take more courage to share with your family -- this is the situation, this is what I need from you, and would you help support me through this program -- because I want to get myself -- well, I want to live my life again and sometimes, you know, it's even just getting support and the language and how to approach it, ow to do with them because sometimes you're just getting through the day dealing with the pain without trying to think about how you might communicate that. But I agree, it is definitely takes more courage to share you know what's going on. And that's why in the first week of the program I encourage you all to sit down with your families and let them watch the video of the laparoscopy. Suddenly they've got a whole new perspective on the laparoscopy operation and what's going on in your inside. And that's, again, just part of building your confidence, building up your voice and helping you share your emotions. So if anyone was considering joining the program, what would you say to them? What would be your your parting words to people if they're maybe struggling on their own at the moment? They're maybe following my book and maybe taking them longer than they'd like. What would you say about the foundation program? Susanne: Well, I would say don't hesitate. I really recommend. It's the best support to really get going because there are always things in your life that turns up. And then it's so easy to get your actions for endometriosis on hold and that's dangerous to do that. But the program is the best way to really keep fighting and the twelve weeks, they passed quite fast, and it's difficult to really see the difference all the time. And although I just did the basic things in the program for five weeks and then I had a lot to catch up, it was so interesting now in the end to look back in the journaling, see what I've done, how I felt and to reflect on how I have changed. And it's not only the pain score in the endometriosis that has decreased. There are so many more things that has happened and the things that I wrote at the beginning of the program, what I would do when I felt pain free, I've already started to do. I achieved them. Yeah, and by then I felt like a dream, a dream that might be impossible even though I did have this feeling about natural healing, that it would work. But it was still a dream that I didn't know if it would come true ever and now they have come true, many parts of it. And it's it feels like I'm the boss of my life now. And I think that one reason that my endometriosis flared up again was that I had lost contact with myself, both by caring more for the kids than for myself, and I had a job that was quite demanding, a lot of traveling, and I had a bad conscious of leaving the kids so much. So when I was home I just spent time with them and there was never time for me, for myself, and in this program you really need to look after yourself. What do I need? And get in touch with yourself. Now it feels so -- I can't find the word for it, but it's so natural. It's not strange at all. It's just as it's supposed to be and instead of just running around in circles doing what other people want me to do, now I'm the boss in my life. And I didn't think that would be an outcome or this program. I was just looking forward to a pain-free life. Now it feels like it that is a small thing. That is the greatest thing when you are in pain but now I even get more so that's something to look forward to if you're planning to join the program. Wendy: Fantastic. And I think that's it. I remember feeling had this great desire to get well when I was bedridden but didn't know how to do it so that's what I put everything that I learned into my book., by putting into the program. And people just have to plug in to the various steps that I've taken and learn from what I learned and not have to just struggle to find out these things themselves. And as you said, there's normally a number of different elements that we need to look at any one given time and it's hard to do that when you're on your own. And then obviously we do have the group Q&As every two weeks, as well. How do you find that coming together with other women that are going through the program? Susanne: That it's very good. You get a perspective and they take up things that I haven't thought about that turns out to be important for me as well. And it's very important not to feel alone and even though I've just listened to them during these group calls it feels like we're a team. We're fighting together and it's so great to hear that they're getting better as well. Wendy: I feel that that's really important. Women with endometriosis -- and I knew I felt exactly the same. I felt so alone, terribly alone, and I made a vow, I made it my mission that once I got well that I would write what worked for me and make sure that there was enough support in place for women so that they felt part of a group and a community that was not just talking about the pain or the symptoms or surgery but actually talking about getting well and healthy and and getting their life and their body back. Because they can be so designing when you got a flare-up or when you know you're bedridden again and you don't know why. But as you say, when you're going to the program yourself -- that's why it's 12 weeks because it does take time to start to see the changes with planting seeds along the way whilst removing and swapping out any offending products or people or foods or anything, depending on what's what's the issue for you -- but having a support and hearing other people, again, it just makes you feel you're part of something and not alone enough. That's a big thing> But thank you so much for taking the time out to chat me today. I would say if anyone is interested in getting more information on the foundation program, it is over a 12-week.

I have been away over the past few weeks, not on a holiday but a 'work-away' as I finalise the 2nd edition of the Endometriosis Naturally Cookbook (which ended up being a completely brand new book! And with recipes from 101 to 131 - you can tell that I got somewhat excited!), and also here to record the audiobook version of the 2nd edition book "How I Ended My Endometriosis Naturally". 

Creating anything, especially a book or a cookbook, requires much love, dedication and commitment, which is hard to do in my apartment in the centre of Edinburgh, entry phone system buzzing with deliveries and my enigmatic, somewhat energetic, 12 months old chocolate Labrador called Poppy and my 2 frisky cats.

The interruptions become plentiful and my patience is tested to its limits.  Then my perfectionist and pusher parts start to become more frustrated as time zooms past and there is little to show for my interrupted efforts!

So a 'work-away' was planned and it has been glorious.

The sun-worshipping part of me was a little gloomy as the sun in Spain was not burning through the clouds as much as I would like (for my book writing breaks) but to have the uninterrupted peace and flow in preparing and writing was delightful.

I admit to liking to track my progress in any endeavour I put my attention to whether it is healing endometriosis or writing a book so as to be able to get a good run and be able to finally send off the contents and photographs to the editors and designers felt euphoric.

I am super excited for you all to receive this 2nd edition cookbook when it is published next month, just in time for Endometriosis awareness month.

We have had recipe contributions from some EndoBoss® Alumni, EndoBoss® Beginners, and even my adult son, Sebastian.

I wanted this book to be a book that can help guide you to eat in a new way whilst also answering some important questions that come up for women with endometriosis.

Unfortunately, there is a lot of misleading and misinformation about what to eat and what not to eat for women and I wanted to share what worked for me and still continues to work 6 years later.

SO I hope you will enjoy experimenting with the 131 recipes when it comes out but I will keep you posted here when it is officially released.

But I do want to share that having this time away to get into the flow and have time to contemplate, I felt inspired to share about a very special Valentine's or rather Galentine's Gift I have for you.

You see Valentine's Day can be a mixed bag of liquorice allsorts for many women.

The marketing departments across the globe put intense pressure upon the men to bestow gifts and flowers to their wives, partners and girlfriends. This is fine but I know of many women who are single and find this time of the year somewhat depressing if they find themselves single; happily or not.

So I want to offer you a different show of LOVE this Valentine's Day.

It is called a Galentine's Gift from the EndoBoss® Team.

You see, far too many women are suffering awful period pains and endometriosis symptoms, month in and month out.

So I want to incentivise women to come together in a healthy, self-care capacity to learn what true self-care is without the shame or guilt, normally associated with women when they spend any time on themselves.

The 21 Day Unstoppable EndoBoss® Challenge has brought so many women (over 108) great joy, peace and relief from anxiety, as well as some physical improvements too, in a matter of a few weeks of learning how to increase their awareness and self-care routines.

And I want to make this as affordable as possible, so there are ZERO excuses for giving yourself some REAL, LASTING LOVE this Valentine's Day.

So, on this coming Monday 14th February 2022, for one day only, I will be reducing the cost of the 21 Day Unstoppable EndoBoss Challenge by over 50% from £197 to only £97!

You will learn how to:

And it even comes with a money-back guarantee so you can try it and if it's not for you then I will refund you.

You see this Galentine's Gift is a gift that keeps on giving long after Valentine's Day has come and gone, and has the gift of giving long after the 21 Days Challenge is completed.

I know this for a fact because the 21 Day Challenge was where the majority of my EndoBoss® Alumni and EndoBoss® Coaches have come from - and I would love you to follow them.

But, first things first!

I just want you to get a sniff, a whiff, an inkling of what is possible in 21 Days when you are immersed in a safe, nurturing, positive and empowering environment for women.

The information and education you receive from me, each day in my pre-recorded educational webinars, help to uncover and unravel some of the mysteries of the emotional elements of endometriosis. - and most importantly give some practical support.

What I call learning the Tools of Titans and Habits of Heroines!

Well, really EndoBosses but that previous phrase has a nice ring to it.

So this is an advanced warning to mark your calendar and make sure to check your emails on Monday 14th February (or your spam box). 

If you haven’t already registered with me for updates then you can go to https://HealEndometriosisNaturally.com and download your FREE Top 5 Quick-start Tips and my Team will email out to you to remind you of this special offer that is only available for 24 HOURS.

This will be my Galentine's Gift for you, which I promise will have a much nicer aftertaste and impact than any chocolate could have!

So make sure to take this leap into the EndoBoss® Pathway in a super safe and nurturing environment.

I look forward to meeting you in the 21 Day Challenge on Monday 14th February 2022. (https://EndoBoss.com/Challenge)

To your health!

"For over 20 years I had tried everything so I was cynical if Wendy could help me heal my cysts and endometriosis naturally. Yet within 11 months my 7cm cyst has reduced to 1cm and I now have zero pain with my cycles. I feel so good and have so much energy. This EndoBoss® Pathway is truly life changing & transforming." Nadja

Meet the delightful Nadja from Germany who is now an official EndoBoss®!

Nadja is a highly successful engineer working within one of the world's top engineering companies.  Her strong work ethic and determination has served her well in her career but took their toll on her body.

After 20 years of struggling to manage endometriosis and reoccurring cysts on her own, and recognising that surgery was not helping nor preventing their return, she read Wendy's book "How I Ended My Endometriosis Naturally".

She liked how Wendy's book was different from many others in that it addressed the emotional aspect of the disease and took a holistic and whole woman approach to healing endometriosis.

Nadja took the first step on the EndoBoss® Pathway and signed up for the 21 Day Unstoppable EndoBoss® Challenge.  She enjoyed the gentle way in which the Challenge built on itself each day and how it shared how to incorporate essential self-care into her life without guilt. 

Nadja then graduated into the Embracing Emotions Program and again benefitted from the tools and tips on how to embrace her emotions.

Nadja's hard work paid off and she was offered a place in the EndoBoss® Academy 6 months program.

Different elements of the journey were covered like The 5 P's Poisons (Produce, Products, Property, Past & People) to further expand her understanding of why cysts and endometriosis had shown up in her body and why her immune system was struggling to put them in remission.

Yet, 11 months on, Nadja's dream of becoming an EndoBoss® has come true!  

Her monthly cycles are more regular with less pain and a recent visit to get an MRI scan showed her cyst of 7 cm is now less than 1 cm.  Despite being told she would have to have another surgery or a hysterectomy, she now knows how to work with her body to continue to put the cyst into a dissolved state and heal her endometriosis naturally. 

She has more energy than she could ever have imagined and a confident outlook and loves her body for the first time in her life.

As Nadja says:"If you do it on your own, it is really high probability that you will make some mistakes despite the huge effort you put on it...even something you consider a change in good direction could be exactly opposite...so, just take the pathway, the Academy and follow the program, which works"

Podcast 114 - Meet the delightful Julia from Germany who is a qualified physiotherapist and a published author and loves helping people.

Julia suffered from endometriosis and cysts for over 4 years and experienced an increasing number of painful symptoms that she had to endure whilst teaching students at her university and attending to patients from her private practice.

Seeking a way out from her pain, Julia had 2 surgeries but these procedures sadly just made her worse. She was determined to be pain-free and this led Julia to find and read Wendy’s book ‘How I Ended My Endometriosis Naturally’.

Feeling inspired after seeing some positive results from adopting a few of the suggestions in the book, Julia then joined the 21 Day EndoBoss® Challenge in order to learn more about essential self-care and how to embrace her emotions.

Julia’s hard work and commitment paid off as she was offered a coveted place in the EndoBoss® Academy, which she has just recently completed.

- her cycles are now only 3-5 days long

- her intense shoulder pain is gone

- a numb feeling in her right leg is gone

- she has better & improved regular bowel movements

- her digestive system has improved

- she has thicker hair, softer skin, and stronger nails

- her energy levels have significantly improved

- her sleep has improved

What is more, she has been able to undergo some emotional work such as removing old and unhelpful beliefs about herself. Julia is now able to stand up for herself more in challenging situations and is more comfortable putting in firm boundaries of protection with toxic people who may try to push or trample over them.

This has helped in numerous ways and now Julia feels more confident, is making plans for the future, and is generally feeling more optimistic.

Most importantly, Julia has come to recognize her value, her true worth, and the power she holds over herself, her emotions, and her body!

Wendy & her EndoBoss® Team are so proud to say that Julia is on her way to becoming an Unstoppable EndoBoss®!

Wendy discusses how many women underestimate the effects of the world around them and how to establish if your current environment is affecting your physical and emotional health.

Several research studies reveal how many aspects of your environment from your home, to work, to relationships can affect your health outcomes; mentally, emotionally, and physically.

Equally, if your environment is littered with toxic or attacking people then you may feel unsafe which will bring with it a great deal of stress and anxiety in the body inhibiting the immune system.

Meet the lovely Louise from UK who for over 20 years suffered from endometriosis but is now an EndoBoss®.

As an owner of her own hairdressing salon and a top hairstylist, she worked tirelessly on her feet every day enduring a myriad of physical symptoms. 

Then her husband ordered Louise the book ‘How I Ended My Endometriosis Naturally’ and then she joined the 21 Day Unstoppable EndoBoss® Challenge to learn more about emotions and essential self-care and became our first placed Winner.

Louise's dedication and commitment paid off as she was offered a coveted place in the EndoBoss® Academy.

In the beginning, she had many symptoms usual to women with endometriosis; Bleeding 6-9 Days, Flooding, Blood Clots, Ovulation Pain (Day 14 +), Migraines, Lower Back Pain, Ovary Pain, Bladder Pressure, Pain on Urination, Night Sweats, Hot Flashes, Memory Problems, Poor Sleep, Chronic Fatigue, Weepiness, Depression, Lethargy, Bloating, Distended Stomach, Candida, Restless Itchy Legs, Chemical Sensitivities, OvarianCysts, Chocolate Cysts, Dragging Sensation Down Legs - To name just a few of the many symptoms

Now after 6 months of being a part of the EndoBoss® Academy with increased awareness, information, education and empowerment Louise says:

“I am calmer, my sleep patterns are better, I have more energy, I rarely have a headache, I am in almost no pain between periods, my skin is clear and bright, I have a more positive outlook on life, I have names for my different parts, my eating patterns are healthier, greener, more regular, I am able to observe the changes in my body with less anxiety, i have more confidence in my abilities and who I am."

"There have been dramatic changes in my periods and the flooding has definitely reduced even on the heavy periods. I have been able to have a full nights sleep during my period which is a miracle as I have usually been up every hour to change the sanitary pads with fear of bleeding through on the bed."

"I have only had x2 paracetamol in 7 months where I was using it every month prior to joining the programme".

Louise is now a BOSS of her body, an EndoBoss® and an Alumni member of the exclusive EndoBoss® Tribe.

This week Wendy K Laidlaw discusses the search for the sacred self that lies within everyone.  

Women with endometriosis invariably have given out of themselves to the extent they have no connection to their sacred selves.

When you discover your sacred self, you awaken this hidden and dormant inner energy, and life force and let that guide your life. The word most commonly used to describe this inner force is "spiritual" or enlightenment.

Maybe you are already powerful but seeking your power from the wrong place and there’s a new intelligent way to decode your endometriosis experience. 

Hear some recent Q&A's at the end.

Wendy K Laidlaw discusses how the country and the environment that we live in and are around us, are far more powerful, stressful, and stimulating than we are consciously aware of.

Women with endometriosis are some of the strongest, most robust, and courageous people who unwittingly fight a silent battle every day with their bodies.

What they might not know is, that they might be unconsciously trying to control their environment, which is actually outwith their control -  but by making small changes, increasing their awareness of people, places, and things (and journaling every day), they can start the transformation journey to becoming an EndoBoss®.

As Wendy celebrates her 100th episode, she discusses the stories we tell ourselves that may have originated at the tender young age of 10.

When we embark on a new journey or are continuing along one that may be challenging it is natural to feel fear and resistance and question whether change is possible.

Change is an inevitable part of nature and life and the trick is to recognize that if our mind isn't expansive and fearless and open to change, then it is trapped in a condition within a story room we have created for ourselves.

The secret?

To seek to embrace change and recognize the power within you to effect the change you seek.

Wendy discusses 'conditioning' when, after training her labrador puppy called Poppy, she became aware of the deeper elements of conditioned behavior like 'overgiving' that may reside deep in our subconscious minds.

Conditioning is "the process of training or accustoming a person or animal to behave in a certain way or to accept certain circumstances".  But many times women are totally unaware of what they have been conditioned to think, say, or do; which in turn may be affecting their emotional and physical health.

Heartache and pain from past or present misinformation or mistreatment may be stuck in your heart. 

Wendy talks about how to reconnect and slowly let the old barriers of protection melt, with the installation of appropriate nurturing boundaries, to allow for self-healing of old hurts to be processed.

Self-nurturing and self-protection are not taught in schools and many women with endometriosis have over given their generous spirits to the point of depletion and old hurts remained stuck.

Wendy shares how to start the gentle journey of connection and release of the old pain, trauma and pain by simple but effective daily and nightly tools - to reconnect you back to your heart and heart's desires.

More is discussed in the Updated & Revised 2nd Edition of Wendy's book "How I Ended My Endometriosis Naturally Without Painkillers, Drugs or Surgery" due to be released on Friday 12th March 2021 on Amazon.

She is still pain-free and is now helping other women with endometriosis with her Embracing Emotions EndoBoss® coaching.

Wendy discusses the various types of people out in the world who have immoral intentions upon others.

Despite blatant evidence of wrongdoing, many people are masked by accolades (like a title or a position) and often protected by those who are 'conditioned' to only see good in everyone. As such, these individuals aren't held accountable for their destructive actions and may continue to take advantage of vulnerable and unsuspecting women.

Many women are too trusting of complete strangers to stop listening to their instincts, underestimating the impact that other people may have on their decisions and health.

The way to counter this and ensure self-protection is through the art of journaling every day in the morning.
