This episode is my 1st one- Hooray!!! I'd been humming and hawing about it for months and finally told myself, "Just do it already!"
What you're listening to is my friend, Allyson Brown, who interviewed ME on a platform I created. I named it The Autoimmune Summit and had interviewed 14 other wellness professionals who had deep smarts with healing autoimmune diseases—many had reversed their own autoimmune conditions. These respected wellness leaders were other health coaches, functional nutrition practitioners, nutritionists, a yoga master, a laser specialist, an acupuncturist, and others in the wellness field. These video recordings went out to about 200 people who signed up to receive them. I received a lot of positive feedback and it was so much fun to connect with like-minded people.
Enjoy listening to MY story. I had felt MS symptoms when I was 28 years old then again when I turned 45. When I was diagnosed at 45, it was scary and devastating at the time. Thinking a wheelchair was in my near future, I was frightened to know that my health insurance company didn't cover any major drugs like ones connected with MS. I learned that the least expensive drug in 2015 was about $55K a year up to just under $100K. I learned that yes, insurance companies cover a lot of these medications, but usually not the full amount. Some patients spend thousands of dollars monthly to take these drugs when they don't reverse the diagnosis.
As you listen to my story, I had a revelation that I could heal myself without taking medication. This was so empowering to me! After I healed all of my symptoms (even the blind spot in my left eye), I knew I had to tell people about this new acquired knowledge. It wasn't easy, but I've created a way to make it digestible and easier to others to heal. There are so many that don't believe that healing naturally is possible! It's my passion and mission to keep sharing this information.
With this journey, I've written a cookbook, Nourish Your Way to Health
and a paperback book, The Path to Reverse Multiple Sclerosois.
I'm also a certified Integrative Nutrition Health Coach and help people reverse their autoimmune diseases. It's so rewarding! https://nourishyourway.com/work-with-me/
