Support the cause

No one prepares you for life with a chronic illness, but learning from someone who has been there can make all the difference.

I share insight in hopes of guiding fellow warriors to reclaim their agency, find their footing after diagnosis and move onward with life. Basically, it’s what I wish I had when diagnosed.

Help me continue this work by spreading the love! If you have benefited from the content I create, give it a like, comment or share. And, if you’re able to leave a tip to show your appreciation, I have jars on PayPal and Venmo.

Your contribution allows me to continue to do what I’m passionate about - spreading awareness and hope to other chronic illness warriors.

Chronic illness doesn’t take away your choices.

It just changes the choices you have.

Rediscover yourself and find peace amidst the chaos.
