We all had such a good time learning tools to help us all. Thank You Susan for doing this. I have gave up soda and now working on getting rid of sugar out of my vocabulary. Slow process for me to master it. I am very happy to say this group was so good and encourage you to try this. Made some good friends from this experience.

Susan Masterson

Hello, my name is Susan Masterson and I am a mom of a boisterous little girl, a wife, writer, and a total research nerd with a PhD in Health Psychology - living with a chronic illness.

For much of my life I had a combination of symptoms that no doctors realized were all connected in one underlying disease. It all finally made sense when I was diagnosed with Sjogren's in 2017.

But for years before that, I thought my symptoms were "in my head", blamed myself for feeling rotten, and tried to "lifestyle my way" into feeling better.

- I tried eating the "perfect", healthy diet.

- I tried exercising vigorously to get more energy.

- I was obsessed with getting enough sleep.

After my diagnosis, I finally understood that my body is different. Once and for all I gave myself permission to stop pressuring myself to "feel normal" and recognized that what I was doing was in fact, making me worse.

I do still believe that healthy lifestyle/self-care habits are necessary, but when you're living with a chronic illness, you have to tailor your approach to your body.

I want to bring you what I've learned about how food, exercise, and stress relate to autoimmune diseases, so you can avoid spinning your wheels like I did.

With my background in health/medical psychology plus what I've figured out from experience, you can benefit from what I know.

My courses and workshops will help you (in your partnership with your doctor) identify the lifestyle plan that will work best with your medical treatment - to make you feel better.
