LOL (Lupus Out Loud) with Racquel Season 2 Episode 6

Lupus Misinformation

Misinformation can be just as harmful as the disease itself. Every time we challenge a myth we’re making space for real understanding, real awareness, and factual information.

What myths gave you heard about lupus? #lupusincolor #lolwithracquel #lupusoutloud

LOL (Lupus Out Loud)with Racquel

This lupus fight is hard enough. Don’t let your words make it heavier. New Lupus Out Loud episode is here: Your Body is NOT Betraying You, It’s Sustaining You!

#lupusincolor #lolwithracquel #lupusoutloud

Some days with lupus, I’m ready to advocate for myself like a boss. Other days… I’m lucky if I can advocate for a nap.

Even on your worst days, your voice still matters. You deserve to be heard, even in a whisper. #lupusincolor #lolwithracquel #lupusoutloud

You can cry and still be powerful.

You can hurt and still be grateful.
You can be a mess and still be healing.

Gratitude doesn’t erase the pain. It coexists with it. It walks beside it. #lupusincolor #lolwithracquel

Anxiety & Lupus

You are not weak for feeling anxious, you are human. And you’re not alone in this.

Take a listen and let me know if you deal with anxiety and what are do@e of your coping skills. #lupusincolor #lolwithracquel #lupuoutloud

Mind Over Lupus we are tackling Rumination and Mental Fatigue.

🦋 You’re allowed to pause.
🦋 You’re allowed to not have all the answers.
🦋 You’re allowed to take care of your mind with as much compassion as you do your body.

If no one’s told you today—your mind is doing the best it can with the weight it’s carrying. Be gentle with it.

Your thoughts are not facts. Your fatigue is not weakness. And your worth is not measured by how productive your brain is on any given day.

Some days, the bravest thing you can do is say,
"My mind is tired. I’m still worthy. I choose rest and grace."

Spiritually Yours

Episode 1

Staying Spiritually Strong

Remember to nurture your spirit, just as you care for your body. You are strong, you are resilient, and you are so much more than lupus.
