Description
Gessie Thompson, also known as Coach Gessie, is a fibroids survivor and founder of TheDeToxNow.com, where she educates women on how to address inflammatory conditions such as fibroids, endometriosis, infertility, and more through lifestyle medicine. Coach Gessie has had remarkable results with her clients who have fibroids and it all stems from her harrowing experience of multiple fibroid surgeries and a very high-risk pregnancy. In this episode, we talk about her turbulent journey with fibroids and fertility, the main triggers for fibroids and how they show up in our lives, how Black women are disproportionately affected by fibroids, why radical self-care is essential, learning to listen to your body, and so much more!
