Emily Doherty – Does coeliac disease and endometriosis control your life or do you control it?
Coeliac disease affects 1 in 70 Australians and 80% of people don’t know they have it. Ouch.
To celebrate endometriosis awareness month and coeliac awareness week I chatted to Emily Doherty, a model, speechie, content creator, and Pilates instructor. She is a coeliac and endo warrior who has been through a lot in her health journey and is passionate about raising awareness.
Here’s a summary of what we spoke about:
- What Emily was like growing up, and how she was always a type A personality
- Her health journey from childhood until now
- Her journey with ceoliac disease
- Her battle to being diagnosed
- How she discovered she has endo
- How Emily manages her endo
- Her advice for those in the same boat
- Advice on how to manage unresolved symptoms
- Tips to manage flare ups with a busy schedule
- And more!
“My version of being healthy is being happy. You learn to deal and manage living with endo and coeliac disease.”
