Today, Ali is talking to True Warrior Jewelry founder Melissa Randazzo about her long and complicated battle with infertility and endometriosis. Melissa tells Ali about how she'd never heard of endo before, and what happened when her insides were "black, covered in scar tissue, and all my organs were attached to themselves." She also talks about the healing power of crystals and how they helped on her journey, having her fallopian tubes removed, and going through multiple rounds of IVF. Melissa also discusses the anxiety of being pregnant after loss, and the complicated birth stories for both of her two children, ultimately leading to a hysterectomy. "Nobody can understand what you're going through with infertility unless you've been through it yourself," she says. Check out her jewelry at www.truewarriorjewelry.com
