I recently connected with Danielle, founder and owner of Danielle Joy Designs.
I was randomly searching for endometriosis-related merch on Etsy the other day and stumbled upon bracelets that called out to me. They were bold and feminine at the same time, and I was quick to order one for myself. But as I started looking through the online shop I discovered that the owner is an #endowarrior like me.
Danielle was diagnosed with endometriosis after a year of excruciatingly chronic abdominal pain that no doctor could explain. Many MANY tests, scans and specialists later, she was finally able to find an endometriosis specialist who immediately scheduled her for a diagnostic laparoscopic surgery and excision of endometriosis if found. Stage 3 endometriosis was found and excised.
Danielle provides her clients with personalized jewelry and has a special collection of bracelets dedicated to the endometriosis part of her world.
A message from Danielle: The road to a specialist who can help women suffering with endo averages {TEN YEARS}! Yes, that’s right… women suffer for an average of ten years just to be diagnosed properly! 1 in 10 women have endometriosis! There are only a handful of specialists out there that even understand endo enough to help. There needs to be more awareness of this terribly crippling disease that still has {NO CURE}. Too many women out there are needlessly suffering day in and day out, merely existing, trying to just get through their day.
“We are researching on what the best foundation is for donations but we will be donating proceeds to an endometriosis foundation to help find a cure. Women deserve to get their lives back and we want to help fellow #endosisters as much as we possibly can.”
You can purchase Danielle’s jewelry on Etsy and Amazon. Be sure to use the promo code ENDOAWARENESS. Details are also on the sidebar of this site.
