Host Callie Greenberg interviews Yvonne Richardson-Hay, an endometriosis warrior, advocate, and memoirist, about growing up in rural Queensland with environmental chemical exposure, her decades-long struggle with severe endometriosis, surgeries, motherhood against the odds, and the emotional aftermath that led her to write her memoir.

The episode explores diagnosis delays, identity shifts caused by chronic pain, relationship strain, healing through storytelling and community, and the ongoing physical impacts even after a hysterectomy.
