You become your own damn advocate, that's what. In this raw and real episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on my entire medical journey - the good, the bad, and the "I wish I kept my pants on" moments that had me questioning everything.

We're talking pincer impingement, labrum tears, and all the medical drama that comes with being a woman trying to get proper healthcare. But here's the thing - this isn't just my story. It's the story of every mom who's been told to "just live with it" or that pain is "part of motherhood." It's about learning to trust your body, finding your voice, and refusing to accept subpar treatment. In this episode, you'll hear: Why self-advocacy isn't optional in healthcareThe turning point that changed everythingHow proper diagnosis finally led to successful surgeryWhy pelvic physical therapy was a game-changerThe emotional toll of being dismissed by 12 doctorsPlus, I'm sharing the resources that can help you skip the seven-year struggle: "Heal Like a Mother" at www.heallikeamother.com"Mommy's Hip Has a Boo Boo" at www.mommyshiphasabooboo.comThe Hip Freedom Intelligence at www.thehipfreedomintelligencesystem.comBecause mama, you deserve to be heard, believed, and healed.
