Description

Jessica Murnane is more than inspiring: she’s truly moving. Her powerful experience with her own health struggle around endometriosis, which affects 1 in 10 women in the US, has not only made her an incredible educator about this emotionally taxing condition but she is also an example of resilience and grit.

All the shades of eating plant based

Jessica found the plant based diet right before her scheduled hysterectomy and it changed her life. Her perspective is realistic however: while she would never eat animals or recommend eating them, she strongly believes that everyone is different and has different needs. Bio individuality is what should guide our plant based food choices, not the pressures of the latest trendy diet.

There is no one ‘cure it all diet’

Jessica  talks to us about how she navigates having different guests on her own podcast, One Part. She explains why it’s important to disagree and why healing yourself is a journey with many stops. There is no magic pill or diet.

Education about endometriosis is still not mainstream - Jessica is here to change that

We also dive into Jessica’s endometriosis awareness work through her platform Know Your Endo and he upcoming book #2, that will address this topic.

When you talk to Jessica, you feel so much warmth and empathy. Our conversation left us so full and we are sure you will feel the same.
