About this episode

Your ambition survived the diagnosis… but your energy didn't. In this raw and deeply honest episode, I'm talking about the emotional reality of trying to live at your pre-MS pace while managing MS fatigue. We dive into "fantasy self planning," the shame cycle it creates, and how to stop exhausting yourself trying to keep up with a version of you your body can't consistently support anymore. If you've ever felt frustrated, guilty, or like you're constantly falling behind with MS… this episode is for you. 👉 Want the full transcript + show notes (including links and resources mentioned in this episode)?
