Spotlight Lipedema Lori Pellnitz

It's finally out! Episode 15 of the Spotlight Lipedema is out - featuring Part 2 of my interview with Beth Rylaarsdam. This was a great conversation about how CurvyGirlBeth made her debut and so much more. We talk about how lipedema ladies tend to hide from picture or hide themselves and their legs in pictures and why Beth thinks that needs to change. How do we share knowledge of lipedema when we encounter people that appear to have it too.

It's finally out! Episode 14 of the Spotlight Lipedema is out - featuring Beth Rylersdaam - Curvy Girl Beth. It was a great conversation - so good that we just kept chatting.

This episode is a bit different from the previous shows. I had the chance to speak with Dr. Guy Eakin, the Chief Science Officer of The Lipedema Foundation. Dr. Eakin provides some background on the Foundation and the work they are doing to provide funding for lipedema research.

In the midst of the Covid crazy, I had the chance to speak with Nita Clewis. We spoke about finding peace with our diagnosis and our challenges, while at the same time, continuing to meet those challenges through self-care. How do we stay focused on self-care in a crazy world - especially as we try to get things back to something that resembles normal.
