Thanai Caesar

Thanai Caesar (she/her) has always been passionate about advocacy, creativity, and building spaces where people feel seen and supported. With a background in youth development, social impact, and community engagement, she’s spent years working with marginalized communities—helping young people navigate challenges, find their voice, and access the support they deserve.

Now, as the founder of This Won’t End Me, Thanai is channeling that same passion into the fight for endometriosis awareness. Living with the condition herself, she understands firsthand the frustration of being unheard and dismissed. Through creative initiatives like guided art and sip experiences, storytelling projects, and awareness-driven events, she’s on a mission to make endometriosis seen—because no one should have to fight alone.

Currently based in Canada, Thanai’s life is a blend of creativity, advocacy, and connection. When she’s not working on TWEM, she’s curating the perfect playlist for every mood, getting lost in a new book, or mapping out her next adventure. And if she’s off the grid? She’s probably somewhere in nature, soaking up the quiet before diving into her next big project.

Amanda Della Giustina (she/her) is an enthusiastic and curious person who is constantly interested in learning something different. Her favorite hobbies involve things that bring her relaxation to calm down her busy mind, like handicraft, painting, and being in contact with animals and nature. She also loves travelling, and the best place for her to be is a tropical beach, enjoying sunny days and the sounds of crashing waves.

With a Honours Bachelor's and a Master's in Nutrition as well as a PhD in Health Sciences with a focus on Neuroscience, Amanda used her own experience as a person with endometriosis, her knowledge as a registered dietitian and her research skills to increase awareness of this condition and demystify misconceptions about diet and endometriosis.

Laura MacDonald (she/her) has been obsessed with stories for as long as she can remember—whether it’s a novel, a poem, or a really well-told personal anecdote, she loves them all. With a Bachelor of Arts in English Literature and a Master of Arts in Children’s Literature, she’s spent years making books and storytelling her whole vibe. She turned her love of words into a career in publishing before jumping into the world of marketing and social media.

Laura is an advocate for endometriosis and mental health awareness, using her voice to share experiences, support others, and break stigmas. She believes in the power of open conversations, self-care, and making sure no one feels alone in their journey—because every story, especially the hard ones, deserves to be heard.

Based in Toronto, Laura’s days are a mix of creativity and connection. She spends her time crafting content, scrolling social media (for work and for fun), reading, and binging Gilmore Girls (again). When she’s not doing any of those things, she’s perfecting her status as Dog Mom and Cool Aunt.
