About this listen
When life throws a curveball like multiple sclerosis, it’s easy to feel like your identity is wrapped in your diagnosis. But what if it isn’t? In this episode of Healing Beyond Your Diagnosis, we sit down with Bart, a welder turned endurance athlete, filmmaker, and father of four who’s been living with MS for over a decade. Bart’s journey is raw, real, and relentlessly hopeful—from Bell’s palsy to Ironman finish lines, from spiritual awakenings to moments of deep despair.
This episode isn’t a miracle story with a tidy bow—it’s about grit, setbacks, small wins, and the power of faith, family, and choosing to live life on your terms. Dr. Jason West and Bart dive into the emotional toll of chronic illness, what it means to fight for your identity, and how one powerful blood test and a clinic full of kindness can reignite hope.
If you’re feeling stuck, alone, or defined by your diagnosis—this story might be the exact thing your heart needs.
