Love your Diagnosis

Miles is a filmmaker with lifelong epilepsy.

He is a board member on two epilepsy foundations and has long fought for the use of cinema to end stigma.

His recent epilepsy film Under the Lights played film festivals internationally and started conversations on representation with the public. He is developing and raising money to make the feature film, which he believes could be the most far reaching awareness effort ever done.

Under the Lights is the story of Sam, a boy with epilepsy, so desperate to feel like a normal kid, he goes to prom knowing that the lights will make him have a seizure. 

Cinema has historically stigmatized and ignored people with epilepsy. A demographic of 1 in 26 who have almost never been represented authentically on screen, and suffer from brutal stigma every day.

Written and Directed by filmmaker with epilepsy, Miles Levin.

So excited for this to be amongst the winners in independent cinema.

I am not a practitioner of health professional. These shows are meant to create food for thought for people going through similar situations. Planting seeds of information about things that perhaps you never knew could and might assist in treating and managing the symptoms associated with your diagnosis.

Alternative treatments are out there to be used, alongside allopathic medicine, or instead of.

What a bloody legend Carlson is!

Quite late into the diagnostic realm of having epilepsy at age 33 and 5 years later, even though he is still working it all out, he has leapt into the music scene and is now advocating for epilepsy through spoken word, with electronic music in the background.

What started as just shouting his frustration into a voice recorder about his diagnosis has now taken the music scene by storm.

So grateful to have someone like him dispelling myths, taking risks and educating through art and music.

I was pretty excited to speak with Rob aka Adeptus Psychonautica about his life. I came across Rob from his You Tube channels where he reviews, runs commentary, and shares observations on all things relating to the psychedelic community.

This world has always interested me but I have only dabbled and been a bit cautious due to having too much fear around what my brain would do during a deep trip. Would I have a grand mal seizure?

Point is, there are alot of people who run these circles where I live that don't have the knowledge or experience or confidence to take on people with epilepsy.

Rob however, has wholeheartedly jumped into this world, even with epilepsy and we get into conversation around his epilepsy and how it plays out when it comes to his journeys.

You can find Rob's channels here to learn more

In this episode of Love your 'epilepsy' Diagnosis I talk with Laurie-Anne about her journey with Epilepsy.

Laurie-Anne experiences nocturnal seizures mostly which was a foreign concept to me before we spoke. We discuss the initial diagnosis and then how medications affected her and made her worse. We then discuss how her seizures look now off all the meds, her incredible carer and how animal therapy, particularly equine therapy and having horses has really helped her manage her stress and therefore, the frequency of her seizures.

In this Episode of Love your Diagnosis, I talk with Kimberly Spencer about her (self) diagnosis of Bulimia.

Kimberly Spencer is an award-winning high-performance, trauma-informed coach and trainer, Amazon best-selling author, TEDx speaker, and the founder of CrownYourself.com, helping visionary leaders transform their self-limiting stories, build their empire, stand out fearlessly, and make the income and the impact they deserve.

From her entrepreneurial beginnings at five selling bags of glitter-water to her neighbors, to becoming an award-winning screenwriter, certified Pilates instructor, Miss Congeniality, and six-time WEGO Health Activist Award nominee, Kimberly is proof that it's better to make your own mold than to conform to someone else's. She's also the former executive of a national e-commerce startup and was the owner of the private Pilates studio, Fitness with Kim in Los Angeles, CA. Her work has been featured on Netflix, The CW, ESPN, Chicken Soup for the Soul, and NPR, and in Thrive Global, CNBC, and Forbes.

We get into the nitty gritty of how this eating disorder entered her life and how she learned to recognise it, ride the wave of control that it allowed her and come out the other side to now talk about it and empower others.

In this Episode of Love your Diagnosis, I talk with Lois Hollis about her journey with curing herself of multiple diagnosis by addressing her trauma caused by shameguilt from her abusive childhood and totally reprogramming her mind about healing herself.

Lois Hollis, RN BSN REV, shifts our opinion on one of the most forbidden subjects,

shame and guilt. Depression, anxiety, 30 years of migraine headaches, and pain

were Lois’ life until she learned the dangers of shameguilt (not shame and

guilt.) She shares her 15 years’ experience as a ShameGuilt Educator,

Counselor, Filmmaker and authored 3 books to offer health and spiritual

maturity.

Lois entered the health field as a Nurse's Aide at 12 and continues today at 78. She

is a trailblazer. Lois developed one of the first Kidney Hemodialysis centers

in the USA. Today, she establishes shameguilt as an independent study.

Lois’ first film “Out of Discord Into Harmony” teaches us HOW to communicate with our

emotions and inner critic. “IM Good Film” makes shameguilt visible to

illustrate its trickery and how to kick it out.

 “Now is The Time,” a collection of her soul readings, helps us stop the negative shameguilt energy. She has spoken widely with podcasts, events, and at the Wharton School at University of Pennsylvania.

In this Episode of Love your Diagnosis, I talk with Ginny Dent Brandt about her journey with Stage IV Her2-positive and estrogen-positive breast cancer.

After five surgeries, six months of four chemotherapies, three years of chemo by mouth, and one year of immunotherapy infusions, she's thriving.

Her diagnosis initially was stage IV Her2-positive and estrogen-positive breast cancer. She was then told, it's aggressive, and then, It appears to have spread to your lymph system and other parts of your body.

The thing was, she felt great, It made no sense. Her doctor showed her the MRI, and it looked like a tornado had invaded her body. But this grim diagnosis motivated her to get a second opinion which turned out to be valuable. Ginny firmly believes, all patients should get a second opinion when they get a diagnosis like this. It turns out that the tornado appearing debri was inflammation from a biopsy that went bad.

Thankfully, she ended up not being stage IV, but all the same treatments had to be brought out to save her life--surgery, chemo, immunotherapy and radiation.

Ginny Brant’s cancer diagnosis sent her on a quest to discover what caused a health nut to contract a deadly and aggressive form of breast cancer. What she found may surprise and inspire you. Whether you’re determined to prevent this deadly disease, survive it, or prevent its recurrence, this book pulls back the curtain on cancer and answers the question “What can I do to help my doctor beat this disease?” She challenges you to change what your doctor has no control over–your lifestyle and health habits.
