They share their personal journeys with chronic Lyme disease, the fight for proper recognition and treatment, and the relentless push to educate others about the realities of this misunderstood illness.

Key Highlights:

🎨 Maria Johnson's Path: Diagnosed after years of chronic symptoms, Maria discusses her battle with disbelief—from her workplace to her own doubts—and her mission to spread awareness through her design skills.

🚨 The Fight for Belief: Both advocates reveal the heartbreaking challenge of convincing others that their symptoms are real, highlighting the urgent need for education and support within the Lyme community.

✨ Hope for the Future: Discover the impact of community, the role of Project Lyme, and why Ashley's TEDx talk could be a game-changer in bringing chronic Lyme to the forefront. If you've ever felt alone in your Lyme battle or want to support someone who is, this episode is a must-listen.
