Stronger than Autoimmune

By: Desiree Werland
  • Summary

  • As an autoimmune warrior myself, I understand living with autoimmunity isn't easy. You are not alone, this podcast is to give hope to living with a chronic illness. I will interview individuals living with autoimmune disease along with experts, and businesses to help provide knowledge, and hope. As a health coach, I understand there is no cure for autoimmune disease but creating small changes like diet, stress management, movement and more can influence on how we feel.

  • Ayurveda for Autoimmune (Do you know your dosha?) An interview with Dr. Shivani Gupta
    Apr 25 2024

    I really enjoyed my interview with Dr. Shivani Gupta. I hope you get as much as I did from my conversation with her as I did.


    So what about Dr. Gupta? Dr. Shivani Gupta is a renowned leader in the health and wellness industry. She is here to share Ayurveda with the world with a Western twist - teaching Doshas, Circadian Rhythm, Sleep Optimization, Igniting the Digestive Fire, and Gently Detoxing so we can all win at our health.Growing up, she battled chronic illness due to a weak immune system. After discovering her family's history of diabetes was impacting her health, she found Ayurveda, which transformed her life.


    After studying with Ayurvedic gurus In India and receiving a Master's in Ayurvedic Sciences as well as a Ph.D. in Turmeric, Dr. Gupta realized that a Fusionary Formula was the secret to health. She is a pioneer in paving the way for Ayurvedic formulas to be the standard of care in doctor's offices. She is pushing the envelope to publish more science on Ayurveda, Turmeric, and Circadian Rhythm.

    I brought her on the show to learn more about Ayurveda medicine and how she integrates into the western world.

  • Finding Peace with Chronic Illness: An Interview with Xenia Brandstetter
    Apr 11 2024

    In today's episode, I discuss finding peace and your true self in living with chronic illness or autoimmune disease with Xenia Brandstetter. She used to work in Finance until she fell ill in her mid-20s with multiple autoimmune diseases. She couldn't keep up with my job and my life, was bedridden for a while, and eventually decided to quit while focusing only on my recovery. During that time,she overshot and became obsessed with living a healthy lifestyle, struggling with depression and disordered eating. She was eventually able to turn it around and find balance, which is when true healing finally happened for me. She is now symptom-free and became a health coach because I want to support others who are going through the same thing & share my knowledge!
