“Somedays are worse mentally, some are worse physically and some emotionally. It’s all about being able to tell yourself: it’s ok if you’re having a shitty day”

In this episode we welcome Alisha, who was diagnosed with relapsing remitting multiple sclerosis at the young age of 24. Since the diagnosis, her life has changed A LOT. Alisha bravely spoke about what MS is, how if affects her life, her mental health, what treatments she has undergone and the side effects that may come with them. What happens when medical interventions don’t work? What happens when you relapse? How do you carry on living a “normal” adult life while dealing with an often debilitating disease. SPOILER: get you some friends like Alisha. If one thing is apparent in this episode, it’s that having a village of support can really lift you up when you’re struggling and be the shoulder(s) to lean on when it’s just not your day, week or month. Alisha has some fantastic advice for anyone going through changes in their life and how to accept/deal with unsolicited advice from others. What is so incredible about Alisha is that she took something that could have brought her down - and almost did - and made it into something so yummy. This episode is all about finding your passion in life and doing it surrounded by the people you love - even in the face of adversity.

Thank you Alisha for showing us and our listeners what it truly means to live.
