Having fibroids is overwhelming. From endless doctor visits to medical terms and tests, I didn't know how it would affect my life, mind, body, and spirit.

In this diary-style podcast, I share my personal experience with the uncertainty, hope, and trial and error.

If you’re newly diagnosed, exploring treatment options, or in recovery, this podcast is here as a reminder that you’re not alone.

Tune in for real stories and gentle encouragement to remind us to try again.
