Psychosomatic or med seeking? The gaslighting of patients with chronic diseases.

Welcome to Flare Up & Fight Back or maybe take a nap,  where rest is sacred, chaos is inevitable, and honesty is the only rule. 

Hosted by Mari and Angie, two sisters keeping it real about life with autoimmune disease. This podcast is a soft landing spot for big feelings, deeper conversations, and all the things we’re taught to keep quiet. 

Some days we rise up and advocate. Other days, we cancel everything and rest. Either way we’re showing up with humor, heart, and a whole lot of honesty. 

Join us as we talk about flares, fatigue, friendship, and figuring it all out one messy, magical day at a time. Whether you’re in the thick of it or just trying to understand, you’ve got a place here with us.

New episodes every Monday. Come as you are. Leave when you’re ready.
