YEG MS Ep. 49, "Brenda- Is this an obstacle or an opportunity?"

In this episode of the YEG MS podcast I was excited at the opportunity to interview Dr. Gretchen Hawley for the second time! From her website, "I began sharing the success that some of my patients had been seeing from our physical therapy sessions on social media, and was surprised by the number of people with MS who reached out - from DesMoines to Dubai - asking if I would be their physical therapist! That's when I decided to launch this virtual physical therapy program - to broaden my reach, and help as many people as possible learn, not just to manage MS, but to master it."

In this episode I have the pleasure of specking with John from San Jose, California.

In this episode I had the great pleasure of speaking with Julia from the Blue Mountains in Australia. Julia was recently diagnosed but maintains an extremely high-level of positivity which you can hear in her voice. The former trauma counsellor shares her story and some of her passions- like felting. Despite the huge distance it was a wonderful conversation.
