Self-esteem can take a major hit when living with a chronic illness. In part one of this episode, Rachel and Tina open up about the emotional challenges of maintaining confidence while managing unpredictable symptoms. They discuss the mental weight of chronic illness, balancing self-esteem struggles while facing weight changes, and learning to cope with a body that no longer feels like their own.
In part two, we welcome Nicole, a gastroparesis warrior and mother of two, who shares her raw and honest journey. She talks about how this complex digestive disease has impacted her self-esteem, her role as a parent, and her fight for awareness and better treatments. Nicole reminds us of the power of advocacy and the strength it takes to keep pushing forward.
Join us for an empowering conversation on self-worth, resilience, and the importance of recognizing that no matter what we face, we are all warriors.
