“Don't chase symptoms, optimize systems.” - Dr. Jessica Drummond
For over ten years, Federica Torri dealt with chronic GI symptoms and sometimes debilitating period pain without any answers about why it was happening. Finally, in late 2023, she received excision surgery and an endometriosis diagnosis. Since then, things have improved, but Federica still isn’t where she wants to be in terms of her vision for her health.
In today’s episode, Federica shares her story as a case study to help you learn how we navigate complex chronic illnesses such as endometriosis through the health coaching lens. As part of her health team, you’ll see how we integrate her multidisciplinary practitioners and her day-to-day health behaviors to help her live healthfully with complex chronic illness while recovering from complex surgery.
As you listen, look out for how I break down our seven-step system for working with any women's health, chronic or acute illnesses, not just giving them a list of things to do to get well, but helping them integrate these tools in a way that makes sense for their life, vision, and values.
When your clients leave their appointment with you, the most important thing is that they feel like they are on the path to living their vision. Healing and living with complex chronic illness is a long-term experience, so clients will always have this underlying vulnerability. Our goal is to fit into their lives, what it means to be healthy at this moment, and how that can continue to expand. I hope that this episode will inform your practice and get you thinking in a coaching mindset, even if you’re working in a clinical setting.
