In this personal episode, I share my own experiences living with and managing an autoimmune condition.
10 years ago I was climbing the corporate ladder, living in a city centre apartment, and working in marketing, all whilst juggling an enviable social life. On the outside, I was thriving. I'd accomplished everything I had previously desired, and ticked every box on society's expectation scorecard.
Inside, I was battling an undiagnosed, invisible illness, which infiltrated every imaginable component of my physical, mental and emotional well-being. And I was drowning.
It took losing my apartment, career, and relationship to accept defeat and reach out for help.
What followed was a life-altering diagnosis, a heap of self-discovery, and a long road to recovery.
But it also initiated an awakening to the fragility of health, the importance of well-being, and a purpose to help others like me.
This episode uncovers the full story, highlights the reality of thyroid illness, and share practical ways you can support friends, family, or colleagues experiencing an autoimmune disease.
It also offers practical ways in which management can both prevent the risk of stress-related illnesses and support team members who are experiencing health challenges.
