  • The JJSegment : Working with FND and writing a book : The FND Podcast
    Jul 17 2025
    🎙️ The JJ Segment: Catching Up with Jess – Working, Writing, and Living with FNDIn this deeply honest and joyfully heartfelt episode of The FND Podcast, Detty sits down with the wonderful Jess for a long-overdue catch-up on the JJ Segment. From moving states, to getting married, to navigating life with FND while diving headfirst into a blue-collar job — Jess shares it all with her trademark humour, grit, and glowing resilience. Together, we unpack what it’s really like returning to work with Functional Neurological Disorder, from workplace seizures and flare-ups to pacing, planning, and the importance of telling your employer. Jess opens up about her journey from overdoing it to finding a more manageable balance — and how she's learned to adapt rather than fight her FND. But that’s not all — Jess is also a published author! We chat about her newest fantasy release "Woman of Wolves", her passion for storytelling, and how she balances creative life with chronic illness. You’ll laugh, nod, maybe even tear up — and definitely walk away feeling inspired. ✨ In this episode:– Jess’s journey with FND & employment– Coping with seizures at work– The emotional evolution of living with FND– Why communication with employers matters– Writing through chronic illness– Creating a fantasy world… and lifting 3 tonnes of flour a day?! 💪– The gift of self-acceptance and finding your pace 📚 Want to support a fellow FND warrior? Check out Jess’s books on Amazon and follow her on TikTok @jessmcfarlane A massive thank you to Jess for being so open and shining your light. And to our listeners: you’re not alone. Your journey with FND is your own, but we’re right here beside you. Stay safe, love hard, and peace — see you on the flip side 💛To work or not to work with FND that is the real question. It's a hard one to gauge and safely decide and it's definitely not for everyone.
