Speaker 1 (00:01):
The best stories don't just inspire us, they empower us,
unite us, and give us the strength to keep going,
even against all odds. This is especially true for those
living with autoimmune conditions like mayasthenia gravis or MG and
chronic inflammatory demyelinating polyneuropathy otherwise known as CIDP. That's why
on Untold Stories, each episode aims to build camaraderie among

shared experiences in the autoimmune community. From the road to
diagnosis to the fight for self advocacy, the challenges along
the way reshape the lives of both our guests and
the caregivers who stand beside them. I'm your host, Martine Hackett,
and I couldn't be more excited to bring you season

idea what my future held once I got the diagnosis and.

Speaker 1 (01:05):
About uplifting the community.

Speaker 3 (01:07):
It really is amazing how being able to use my
pain and help other people has helped me heal in
other ways. Even though I would not wish autoimmune illness
on anybody, but it gives me purpose.

Speaker 1 (01:19):
Every episode shows us how we can define and reclaim
our sense of identity, especially for those living with a
severe autoimmune condition, because when we share our journeys, we
don't just talk about lives, we transform them. We turn
fear into action on the road to diagnosis, we break
down barriers to proper care, We reimagine what's possible in

(01:40):
the community, and we inspire those who follow in our footsteps.
So join me for Season four of Untold Stories, because
every story brings us closer to each other.
