In this deeply personal episode of The Wellness Pharmacist with Dr. Kat, I open up about my chronic illness journey from being diagnosed with Graves' disease in my teens, to developing lupus after my first child, and living with brain cavernomas, seizures, and debilitating fatigue.
You’ll hear what it's like to navigate the healthcare system while being dismissed, disbelieved, and misdiagnosed. I share how I became a pharmacist, educator, business owner, and mother despite living in a body that constantly pushes back.
This episode is for anyone living with autoimmune disease or chronic illness, especially those who feel unheard. You are not alone.
💡 If you’ve ever felt dismissed or invisible in your health journey, this episode is for you.

Medal of Honor: Stories of Courage
Rewarded for bravery that goes above and beyond the call of duty, the Medal of Honor is the United States’ top military decoration. The stories we tell are about the heroes who have distinguished themselves by acts of heroism and courage that have saved lives. From Judith Resnik, the second woman in space, to Daniel Daly, one of only 19 people to have received the Medal of Honor twice, these are stories about those who have done the improbable and unexpected, who have sacrificed something in the name of something much bigger than themselves. Every Wednesday on Medal of Honor, uncover what their experiences tell us about the nature of sacrifice, why people put their lives in danger for others, and what happens after you’ve become a hero. Special thanks to series creator Dan McGinn, to the Congressional Medal of Honor Society and Adam Plumpton. Medal of Honor begins on May 28.
