Chronic Illness, Happy Life? This Dad Says Yes. A chat With Mike Baker

This one’s for the warriors—and the ones who fight beside them.

In today’s episode, I’m joined by Mike Baker, a powerful voice in the chronic illness space, a devoted father, and the heart behind She Rises: The EndoWarrior Project. With raw honesty and undeniable strength, Mike opens up about what it’s like to be a dad watching his daughter battle POTS and endometriosis—and how he turned his pain into purpose through storytelling and art.

We talk about:

🧠 What mindset really means when your child is in pain

❤️‍🔥 Why positivity isn’t toxic—it’s courageous

💬 How to hold space for people with invisible illness

🎨 And the healing power of creating something from the dark

This episode will break you a little, lift you a lot, and remind you that even in the deepest struggle, love shows up—loud, unshaken, and unafraid to fight.

Hit play. You’re not alone.
