Sara Howe is a dog mom, wife, certified occupational therapy assistant, certified personal trainer & certified health coach.

The unique thing about Sara is that she's a stroke & traumatic brain injury survivor due to a car accident when she was 19 years old. After going through a near death experience & going through recovery from all of her injuries she has a new perspective on life.

During her recovery she realized the importance of taking care of mental health & after going through her own disordered eating struggles she has now started her own business to help women to discover their best selves.

We both agree that our health isn't a quick fix & it's not like Amazon prime where it shows up in two days. Health is a life long commitment & one that Sara is very passionate about & believes that she has found her true calling.

My friend Shelby from level 10 coaching is BACK. Today we tackled a topic that we are both SO freaking passionate about: helping people get answers + appropriate evaluations from their healthcare providers.

If you've been around a while you know how passionate I am about helping people get answers + not bandaids for their health. We walk you through some scenarios, listener/follower questions etc.

We give you some simple REAL tangible things you can say to your doctor to show them you're advocating for yourself + to get the testing + answers you deserve

As always nothing in my podcast episodes is meant as medical advice. INFORMATION ONLY.

Karly Newman has been navigating the challenges of MS for the past 21 years since developing symptoms at the age of 12. Though she's experienced setbacks in her disease process, she's become passionate about the power of lifestyle modifications to improve her quality on life an alleviate some of the symptoms of her disease. This has meant adapting often to find joy in different forms of movement, setting boundaries, seeking to find balance among life's many demands, and more recently seeking support from the MS community. An avid backpacker, hiker and all around outdoor enthusiast, Karly hopes to move past her recent challenges with the disease and find a new stasis.

MS is an autoimmune condition which damages the nerves in the brain and spinal cord. While there are common symptoms such as fatigue, every individual's experience with the disease is unique.
