What if feeling stuck with your autoimmune health doesn’t mean you need more discipline, willpower, or information—but simply a few skills you haven’t learned yet?

When you’re living with an autoimmune diagnosis, it’s easy to know what you should be doing and still struggle to make it work in real life. You might have trouble staying consistent, adjusting when symptoms or circumstances change, or figuring out what to focus on next.

But those struggles don’t have to remain permanent.

In this episode, I'll introduce three foundational, learnable skills that can help you shift your attention back to what you can influence and turn health knowledge into habits that actually fit your life. Plus...

• How reframing your health struggles as skill gaps can replace frustration and self-judgment with something you can actually work on and improve.
• Why planning, following through, and repeating are the three foundational skills underneath sustainable health habits—and how strengthening even one could help you get unstuck.
• How to stop chasing the “perfect” health routine and instead build a personalized approach that can adapt with your body, circumstances, and changing seasons of life.

Press play to discover which of these three foundational skills could use a little tweaking—and start building an approach to your health that feels good enough to keep coming back to.

What if better health with autoimmune disease isn’t about learning more—but about discovering the few things that matter most?

When you’re living with autoimmune disease, health information is everywhere. Podcasts, books, experts, studies, social media, and endless lists of foods, supplements, habits, and strategies can leave you with more overwhelm instead of more clarity.

In this episode, I'm taking you behind the scenes of the second annual Autoimmune Health™️ Vault, where experts from across the autoimmune health world were given one challenge: share their best-kept secret for better health with autoimmune disease—in three minutes or less.

Their answers reveal powerful themes around nervous system support, self-love, self-trust, mindset, food, movement, gut health, hormones, and the inner and outer habits that help make healthy change sustainable.

You’ll also hear a special three-minute contribution from one funny and smart contributor about protecting your sense of self when chronic illness changes what you can do.

By listening, you’ll discover:

• Why simplifying health information can make it easier to turn what you know into meaningful action.
• How supporting your inner habits—your thoughts, feelings, self-talk, and relationship with your body—can matter alongside food, movement, sleep, and other physical habits.
• Why cultivating multiple identities can help you build a sense of self that remains bigger than your diagnosis or any ability, role, or relationship that life may change.

Press play to discover simple, powerful autoimmune health wisdom that can help you cut through the overwhelm, focus on what matters, and take your next meaningful step toward better health.

What if some of the most important “medicine” for your autoimmune health has nothing to do with medication?

Recently, I asked my coach how she would describe the work I do. Her answer stopped me in my tracks:

“You help people with all the parts of health and life that have nothing to do with medications.”

Ding, ding, ding.

Because while medications, doctors, labs, imaging, and specialists can all play an important role in managing autoimmune disease, most of your life happens outside the healthcare system.

That’s where creating health happens.

It happens in how you think, eat, move, rest, connect, and challenge yourself—and in the tiny choices you make over and over again.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• The six kinds of everyday “medicine” to support your health
• To focus on what you can influence without adding more to your plate
• How to turn tiny daily choices into meaningful, lasting change

Press play to discover the “medicine” you’re already carrying with you—and how one tiny, intentional choice today can start creating more of the health and life you want.

Could functional medicine, acupuncture, and a few targeted lifestyle changes help you better understand—and support—your health with autoimmune disease?

When you’re living with autoimmune disease, it can be hard to know which approaches are worth exploring. Should you consider food sensitivity testing? Does acupuncture actually help? How much protein do you need? And are there labs your conventional workup may not include?

In this episode, I'm sitting down with Dr. Jim Chialtas, a doctor of acupuncture and Chinese medicine and an advanced functional medicine clinician, to answer real questions from the autoimmune community. Together, they explore inflammation, nutrition, testing, acupuncture, and lifestyle while emphasizing curiosity, consistency, and learning to pay attention to what your own body is telling you.

By listening, you’ll:

• Better understand the role inflammation may play in chronic illness and why identifying potential sources can matter.
• Learn how functional medicine testing, food sensitivity testing, and acupuncture may fit alongside conventional medical care and healthy lifestyle habits.
• Discover practical ways to approach nutrition, movement, stress regulation, and your health journey with more curiosity and less fear.

Press play to get practical answers to common functional medicine and acupuncture questions—and walk away with new ways to think about supporting your autoimmune health with greater clarity, curiosity, and confidence.

Have you ever wondered whether you truly belong in an autoimmune health community—especially if you don’t look like the majority of people in the room?

Living with autoimmune disease can already feel isolating, and finding support that feels genuinely welcoming can make a meaningful difference. In this episode, I'm sharing insights sparked by a recent conversation with a male listener considering joining the CLUB. I explain why gender—or even having the same diagnosis—isn’t what ultimately connects people working toward better health.

You’ll discover:

• Why men living with autoimmune disease absolutely have a place in this community—and what really connects the people inside it.
• Why you don’t need to wait for the “perfect” time to start improving your health across mindset, food, movement, rest, connection, and "good" stresses.
• Why lasting health changes are a long game, and how personalized support, community, and practicing healthy habits in real life can help those changes become part of who you are.

Press play to discover how autoimmune disease can be what brings us together without becoming what defines you—and how to start becoming the person you want to be from here.

Have you ever tried to “rest more” but still ended up feeling physically exhausted, mentally overloaded, or emotionally drained?

Rest isn’t one-size-fits-all. There are seven different types of rest—physical, mental, emotional, social, spiritual, sensory, and creative—and the kind you’re missing matters. For people living with autoimmune disease, simply knowing rest is important may not be enough. Getting specific about what you need can make it easier to move from knowing you should rest to consistently doing what actually helps you feel rested.  

In this episode, you’ll discover:

• The seven types of rest your body, brain, or heart may be craving.
• Why getting specific about your need for rest can turn an overwhelming problem into a much more manageable puzzle.
• How to recognize the gap between knowing rest matters and actually practicing the skills that help you feel genuinely rested.

Press play to discover the kind of rest you may actually need—and take one small step toward turning what you know about rest into something you can consistently practice and feel.

What if one of the best habits for healthy aging isn’t about what you eat, how you exercise, or even how well you sleep—but how you tend to your inner life?

When you’re managing autoimmune disease, it’s easy to focus on the habits you can see. But the way you think, feel, and respond to what’s happening inside you matters, too.

In this episode, I'm exploring a simple (my favorite) practice for supporting autoimmune health, reducing stress, and creating more space for yourself: learning to tend to your inner life.

You’ll discover:

• The simple aware, allow, adjust framework for working with your thoughts and feelings.
• Why trying to immediately change uncomfortable thoughts or emotions may actually make things harder.
• How rest and stillness can create the space you need to better understand yourself and become more intentional about your inner habits.

Press play to learn how a few intentional moments of awareness, allowing, and adjusting can help you create an inner life that better supports your autoimmune health, healthy aging, and the way you want to feel and function.

What if becoming a champion for your health with autoimmune disease doesn’t mean pushing harder—but learning when and how to recover? 

Living with autoimmune disease can create constant pressure to do more, try harder, and stay disciplined—even when your body is asking for something different. In this episode, I hit record after a hit of inspiration from tennis legend Billie Jean King, Let's all take a different approach: becoming a champion for your own health by focusing on what you can control and recognizing that rest and recovery are part of the plan, not a departure from it. 

You’ll discover:

• How to redefine what being a “champion” for your health can look like when you’re living with autoimmune disease. 
• Why lifting your game under pressure doesn’t always mean doing more—and how rest can help you keep showing up for your health and life. 
• How to start identifying the kinds of rest that actually leave your body feeling restored while working through the guilt and “shoulds” that can make true recovery difficult. 

Press play to discover how becoming a champion for your health may start not with pushing harder, but with learning how to recover so you can keep showing up for the health and life you want.
