In 2020, when the world was falling apart, so was I. My period became so painful I was vomiting and blacking out for hours. Chronic pain took over the entire right side of my body. When I finally went to doctors looking for answers, I was told it was normal. Maybe I needed antidepressants. Maybe I just needed to have a baby. Go back on birth control. I would not accept that.

After a brutal year of research and more dismissive appointments than I can count, I self-diagnosed after talking to a woman who had endometriosis, found a surgeon who believed me, and confirmed I had Stage 3 Endometriosis. I walked into my post-op ready for a treatment plan. Instead, he sighed and told me my options were birth control or medically induced menopause. I was 25. I took the hormonal IUD and tried to move on.

But I couldn't. I found the work of researchers, doctors, and advocates who are completely rewriting what we know about female biology, and I became obsessed. Because here is what I know to be true: female biology is not broken. We are not cursed with the harder biology, condemned to suffer through it. We have a biology built for extraordinary things, and it has been misunderstood, under-researched, and over-medicated by a system that was never designed around us.

That's why I created The No Cure Club. It's the hub I desperately needed and couldn't find anywhere. A real, curated resource covering every dimension of life with endo and hormonal illness, from the clinical to the everyday. Because healing shouldn't require a blank check or a medical degree. The answers are out there. I'm going to bring them to you.

Our resource hub launches on May 1st. Your ticket to the event signs you up as a member of the club automatically.
