Sometimes pushing through stops working. This episode of Endo Warriors is for anyone who has been told their symptoms are “normal” while knowing something isn’t right. Callie Greenberg sits down with Dala McDevitt, CEO of DLDNation Team, to talk about burnout, delayed diagnosis, and the long road to answers around endometriosis. From working in healthcare to IVF and eventually receiving an endometriosis diagnosis, Dala shares how years of ignoring warning signs caught up with her.

They talk candidly about medical gaslighting, infertility without a neat resolution, and the self-doubt that builds when endometriosis goes undiagnosed for years. This conversation reframes strength as paying attention, setting boundaries, and taking care of yourself, and it will resonate with anyone who has learned the hard way that endurance is not the same thing as health.
