The Emotional Roots of Endometriosis with Heather McKean

In this episode of The Mind Change Podcast's Emotional Drivers series, Heather McKean embarks on a journey to uncover the emotional triggers behind endometriosis.

Beginning with her personal narrative, Heather shares her own endometriosis diagnosis in 2000, a rollercoaster ride marked by relentless bleeding, abdominal pain, and challenging treatment options, including pregnancy and surgery.

A pivotal turning point emerged when she consulted a reproductive endocrinologist who challenged conventional views on endometriosis. Rather than focusing solely on surgical treatments, he highlighted mineral imbalances and past traumas as key factors.

Throughout the episode, a crucial theme emerges: unresolved emotional scars. Difficult relationships with mothers, the fear of passing on trauma, and a history of caregiving all contribute to the emotional drivers behind endometriosis.

Heather's journey and Mind Change work reveal that healing often involves making peace with the past, rewiring subconscious pathways, and achieving emotional well-being.
