In this episode, Katy Pieris joins us to talk about parenting with rheumatoid arthritis, the importance of exercise, why she volunteers, and hear her arthritis story.

This felt more like two friends chatting at the bus stop than a video call between two people for the first time, and I hope that mutual respect, candidness and relaxed conversation come across in the recording.
