Description:

We discuss how:

- Jackie organized an event on the Isle of Man to raise awareness about autoimmune diseases- She invited Katy as a speaker and she told her story to the audience- Before her first birthday, Katy was diagnosed with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis- She grew up having to learn to live with chronic pain and a sense of hopelessness- In 2000 she switched from methotrexate to Enbrel, which helped a lot, but the pain never went away- In 2010 Katy started a job as a dietary aide, but she needed pain killers to get by- She entered a spiral of depression until she found a video of Clint- She binge watched all his podcast episodes and the next day was her day 1 on the Program- After a year and a half she feels more energized than ever and getting stronger every day
