On this episode of Everything’s Messy Podcast I get into March as it is Autoimmune Awareness Month, and this topic hits close to home for me. As someone living with Type 1 diabetes and Hashimoto’s, autoimmune disease isn’t just something I read about in a textbook—it’s something I navigate every single day.
The truth is, autoimmune disease is far more common than most people realize. Millions of people are walking around dealing with symptoms like fatigue, brain fog, hormone disruption, inflammation, and blood sugar chaos without fully understanding what’s happening in their bodies.
In this episode, I’m breaking down what autoimmune disease actually is, why it affects women at much higher rates, and some of the environmental and lifestyle triggers that may play a role in why we’re seeing autoimmune conditions rise so dramatically.
We also dive into something that doesn’t get talked about nearly enough—the connection between gut health, stress, and immune function. Your immune system doesn’t just randomly decide to attack your body. There are signals, triggers, and patterns happening beneath the surface that deserve more attention.
If you or someone you love is navigating autoimmune disease, this episode is meant to bring awareness, education, and hopefully a little empowerment. Because understanding what’s happening inside your body is one of the most powerful steps you can take toward better health.
Remember, your body isn’t broken. Sometimes it’s just asking us to slow down, listen, and start connecting the dots.
And as always, my messy warriors—keep finding strength through the mess. 💛
