Living Hellth
The name, Living Hellth, comes from the unfortunate reality that the experience of health for many can be anything from confusing to chronic, and quite frankly a living hell.
In our first season, we’re starting with Women’s Hellth.
Women live in poor health for 25% more of their lives than men do.
We’ll be covering the issues, experiences and chronic conditions that disproportionately effect women or affect women differently than men - including endometriosis, Migraines, Menopause, PMS and Cervical Cancer.
The aim of this podcast is two fold, to create a library of reliable information for our listeners who might be suffering with these conditions, using qualified experts, researchers and clinicians.
And secondly, to give a platform to amazing women who have lived through their living Hell, to share their story, and provide a sense of connection, comfort and hope for listeners.

Ella's living hell: From Stage 4 Endometriosis, doctors ignoring her pain, fertility struggles, to symptom tracking, self-advocating for her health, finding the right support and conceiving her beautiful daughter, Sunny
In this first episode, the first of three special episodes focused on Endometriosis. My friend, Ella, share her story with stage 4 endometriosis and subsequently, her fertility journey.
Ella is now in her early 30s and we spend this episode chatting and reflecting on what life was like leading up to her diagnosis, during her surgeries and her journey with fertility.
We talk about what puberty was like for Ella, what her symptoms were, her journey through countless GP appointments, meeting the GP who changed everything for Ella and going from egg freezing, to conceiving her beautiful Baby daughter.
