My first guest on the podcast, Melissa Hauge, has been through a lot.  She had been in abusive relationships, felt unhealthy and was in a bad place while dealing with chronic pain issues.  She decided to do something about that.  She is now happily married and lives in Norway, but it wasn't easy to get to where she is today.  Today we discuss the things that she believed worked for her and how this all went down.

(I made a mistake with Melissa's audio while recording but that's how we learn, right?)

• Abusive relationships while dealing with chronic ailments
