Ep 9. Pain free periods with Period Coach - Gemma Kelly

Send us a text

Gemma is a Period Coach and Menstrual Educator who helps women eliminate period pain, PMS and ultimately live in sync with their cycles. After a lifetime of dealing with her own period problems, a rock bottom moment shook her into the realization: no one is coming to help. And birth control only makes things worse. She tried supplements, she read all the books, she hoped for miracles but ultimately nothing changed until she took radical responsibility for her own health. It took her years but she fixed her periods! And now she helps women do the same (in months, not years).
