Endometriosis is a very prevalent condition affecting women and people born with female anatomy affecting 1 in 10 in Australia. Its a misunderstood, under-researched and taboo topic so people living with endo, or suspecting they have it suffer terribly with pain, heavy bleeding during menstruation, have fertility issues, low energy, and on many occasions cannot get out of bed.
Adenomyosis is considered Endometriosis’s sister disease and even less is known about this condition. Sufferers live with debilitating menstrual cycles and whole-body health problems often for many years before receiving the correct help.
Given that March has been Endometriosis Awareness Month, and April is Adenomyosis Awareness Month, I invited Isabella Gosling into the podcast to shine a light on these two conditions so whether you have this or not, you can be part of raising awareness, weakening the taboo and being a good ally to the very many people who live with and often suffer in silence.

Samhain Magick: Embracing the Descent into the Mystery of Autumn
the witches say the veils between the worlds of the dead and the living, the seen and unseen, are thinnest at samhain, the name of the cross-quarter sabbat (celebration) between autumn equinox and winter solstice.
mystics, pagans and those who appreciate the seasons and cycles of life find much magick, power and transformation available in listening to what the spirits tell us, and in facing the darkness, arriving frosts and scent of death on the air of samhain, because it gives us a chance to go inwards, to reflect on whether you’re living your most authentic life, and to discern what needs to die so you can come closer to your truest essence.
