FreeJoin us for a virtual Pelvic Power Hour, released on demand on 4/9, to learn about living with endometriosis and reclaiming your power!
About this event
Endometriosis, affecting 1 in 10 women globally, shares a prevalence similar to diabetes. Yet, the journey to diagnosis spans an agonizing 7-10 years. With no cure in sight and limited diagnostic methods beyond surgery, the challenges seem insurmountable. For far too long, the struggles of endometriosis and women’s health have lingered in the shadows, dismissed or overlooked.
Amidst these challenges, hope emerges. We are thrilled to present a conversation with the extraordinary Rebekah Lloyd, Founder of ‘This Independent Life‘ & ‘Future of Endometriosis‘ Rebekah, a passionate advocate for women’s health and careers, brings a wealth of experience to the table.
Join Us for:
🎤 Real life Stories: Hear Rebekah’s personal journey, from overcoming burnout and chronic pain to navigating a delayed endometriosis diagnosis.
💼 Impactful Advocacy: Discover the profound impact of Rebekah’s work in reshaping the landscape of women’s health and careers.
🚀 The Future Unveiled: What the future of women’s health and careers looks like through Rebekah’s vision and experiences.
Let’s break the silence, raise awareness, and foster a community that empowers women.
