DON’T CARRY IT ALONE FOUNDER
Rebecca Owen
Rebecca, the founder of Don’t Carry It Alone, combines over a decade of experience in the legal industry with a deep personal understanding of living with endometriosis. Her journey has been shaped by the challenges of managing a chronic illness alongside a thriving career in legal headhunting, where she excels at creating meaningful connections.
Motivated by her experiences, Rebecca established Don’t Carry It Alone to provide a supportive space for those navigating the isolation and misunderstanding that often accompany chronic and invisible conditions. The community fosters connection and advocacy, offering a platform for individuals to share their stories, find comfort, and empower themselves.
Rebecca’s vision extends beyond those directly impacted by these conditions. She’s passionate about engaging allies—friends, family, and colleagues—who seek to better understand and support their loved ones. Her mission is to spark conversations that challenge taboos and encourage greater empathy and awareness.
By sharing experiences and fostering dialogue, Rebecca hopes to build a more compassionate and inclusive society, where no one feels like they’re carrying their struggles alone. Together, we can create ripples of positive change.
