Show Notes

Alex of Invisable Iconic advocates for those in Australia. She gives us a glimpse of her Endometriosis journey and the lack of care and helped she has recived in results frustration, draining for her, and mental struggles. All to drive her to advocate more for Endo care in Australia. Alex talks about ways and pushing for systimatic changes in care by:
- pushing to educate more doctors to do expert excision.
- making excision more accessible for them to get training with providing more government funding.
- changing the narrative around Endometriosis and all that it encompasses.

Alex talks about being movtived because her surgeries to advocate more for Endo. Her surgeries that she has already had weren't  enough, and she is still struggling with Endo even though she had the 'best' docs in Australia perform her surgery. She discussed what her next steps might be, but is just frustrated for the lack of experienced and well trained excision specialists in Australia.

We wanted to bring light to what others are dealing with in other countries and ways people are pushing the narrative and helping other's in their country fight the Endo fight too. Things need to and won't change unless people like Alex, us, and many others push for better education, care, and advocacy.

We see and hear you, Alex!

Take a listen and let us know if you have any ideas for others in other countries.
