Another extremely topical, important conversation addressing so many women's health issues that affect so many but still remain taboo. Kate B is our next Voice to share her story, and such a rollercoaster of a journey exploring so many aspects of what women go through; endometriosis, adenomyosis, secondary infertility, IVF, miscarriage. We are humbled to have Kate be raw and honest with us about the true physical and mental toll these conditions can take; the crippling and life destructive pain of endometriosis, the intensity of secondary infertility and the process of IVF and its toll on the body, the stigma of miscarriage. However Kate found strength in a different area which we are exploring for the first time in the campaign and feel it is such an important aspect of health. After realising Kate needed to forgive her own body, she discovered the significant impact of diet on the body. After changing her life around with her diet, she found strength and saw the importance of looking after our bodies. This in turn changed Kate's career path into a whole new direction and she now supports women with a range of health issues through exploring dietary changes. Thank you Kate for being another incredible voice and raising awareness on so many important topics.
