My story
I couldn't believe it when they told me I had lesions on my brain.
The MRI results came through the app before my doctor even saw them. I read the words "demyelinating disease" and "lesions," and I ended up on the floor because I thought I was going to throw up. My dog Lacie came in and laid down next to me, and I just sobbed. I knew in that moment it was MS.
I was convinced my husband hadn't signed up for this. I thought about leaving him so he wouldn't have to deal with me. I spent the next week Googling everything, reading everyone else's worst-case stories, trying to make my entire life plan in 72 hours.
But here's what I had that a lot of women don't have in those first weeks: years of yoga philosophy that had already changed the way I understood myself. The practices that told me I was not my body. That I was something bigger than what was happening to my brain.
That didn't make it easy. But it made it survivable. And then slowly, it made it something else entirely.
I'm a C-IAYT certified yoga therapist, a 500-hour registered yoga teacher, and I live with MS. I've spent years bringing the full depth of yoga off the mat and into women's real lives, because an accessible practice and nervous system support should never be out of reach. I built this program because I know what it feels like to be in the thick of chronic illness with no real roadmap. And I know that the right tools at the right time change everything.
