Tina Marie Fuller • Founder of WOMBSTRONG
My testimony became my work when my work became WOMBSTRONG, a place where one woman’s healing can become another woman’s beginning. I believe in searching for another way, honoring what our bodies teach us, and sharing what we learn so none of us has to walk the journey alone.
The heart behind the work
This work grew from lived experience — motherhood, grief, faith, fear, discovery and learning to see my body differently.
At 17, I became a mother to my son, Kevin. Motherhood wasn’t something I had planned that young, but I loved being his mom.
At 19, after completing my freshman year of college, my two-year-old son was hit and killed by a car.
After losing Kevin, I promised myself that the next time I had a child, I would be married. I married at 31, but underneath it all was another truth: I was afraid to try again.
A conversation with my dad helped me realize it wasn’t that I didn’t want another child — I was afraid.
Soon after, the baby-making mission began. After a year of trying to conceive, a gynecology appointment revealed that I had five fibroids.
At the time, I didn’t know fibroids could shrink naturally.
I began learning about nutrition, lifestyle and the everyday factors affecting my body. About a year later, I was fibroid-free without surgery or medication, using natural lifestyle factors.
My journey wasn’t perfectly linear. Years later, I developed another fibroid that grew to 13 centimeters. After changing my approach, it reduced by half in 45 days.
That taught me something I still carry into WOMBSTRONG: There is a big enough difference in between healthy nutrition and "Fibroid nutrition"
Before and After
My friend Sheliah convinced me that even though I hadn’t had the baby I began this journey hoping for, it was time to start teaching other women what I had learned.
The rest is WOMBSTRONG history.
