Why We Do This Work — The Heart Behind Supportegy


Listen Later

The story behind Supportegy, and the belief that you can rest and still be ambitious.

 

Supportegy wasn’t built from a business plan, it was born from a diagnosis.

After being diagnosed with lupus while balancing work and studies, Sue searched for a space that helped people live — not just cope — with chronic illness. What she found instead were support groups built around survival, not possibility.

In this deeply personal episode of Beyond the Flare, Sue shares the story behind Supportegy: how one moment in a lupus support group sparked a movement to help ambitious, hard-working people with chronic illness build lives that work for them, with both compassion and strategy.

You’ll hear:

  • The moment that sparked the idea for Supportegy

  • Why “wanting more” after diagnosis is a sign of life, not denial

  • How the Thrive Loop™ helps people rebuild with clarity and hope

  • Why you’re not behind, you’re rebuilding

    If you’ve ever felt invisible in your care plan, or worried that your dreams ended with your diagnosis, this episode will remind you: you don’t have to give up who you are to honor your body.
