A Reflection on 2022
2022 was a year filled with learning and 2023 will only be filled with more!
Ambiguity
Sometimes we experience more disappointment without a diagnosis than with one. In the uncertainty, embrace the ambiguity and continue to live in freedom!
Moving our Body
A little bit about my Ironman experience and how I learned that with celiac disease, we still have plenty to refuel our bodies with after a workout.
Conquering Fear
Fear does not have to control us. Living with celiac disease can prove to be full of valid reasons to fear, but we can conquer fear and break up with it.
Reading Labels
Shopping for items is not as simple as looking for a “gluten-free” stamp or label. We must become experts at reading the fine print and understanding where ingredients are derived from.
Getting Sick
Sickness is going to come, so let’s do our best to be prepared!
Let’s go Shopping
