REPLAY: Turning A Diagnosis Into A Movement with Emily Johnson KAMcast

    • Entrepreneurship

Emily Johnson is a mom of 2, married 13 years, owns a hot yoga studio, and is a registered nurse. As if that wasn’t enough, she then went on to get a degree as a family nurse practitioner - amazing!

When asked how Emily does it all she says that she has learned over the years to ask for help and has a lot of support. She says that she was never comfortable asking for help as a little girl growing up. She thought that it was a sign of weakness. She now realizes that this is not true at all.

Emily’s son Miles in 2020 got off the school bus and she didn’t recognize him. He had become a different child and it was devastating for Emily. It took months to get a proper diagnosis as many of these children are misdiagnosed with a cornucopia, an alphabet soup, of ADHD, autism, anxiety, tics and Tourettes.
