Woohooo! The startup world is beginning to thrive with people who want to impact healthcare using their negative experiences. These people want to help others, change the quality of care and make sure you get better faster. One of these great people is Neala Fulia, and I am excited to have the chance to introduce More Good Days (MGD), a new online digital healthcare company Neala founded dedicated to helping individuals find relief from chronic pain - specifically fibromyalgia. I'm also excited that MGD has become a Friend of My Health Story (MHS), which signifies a shared commitment to improving the quality of care for all of us.  It's what we all deserve and what has been so slow in coming.

My recent chat with PainAustralia’s new CEO, Giulia Jones – Giulia has quite the agenda!

By |2023-04-09T11:14:47+10:00April 8th, 2023|Categories: Advocacy, Blog, Online|Tags: , |

Making the invisible visible You'll hear this wonderful reference in my chat with Giulia – to make what is invisible visible is one of her four goals while in the position of CEO at PainAustralia.  I found Giulia incredibly down-to-earth and easy to connect with. Of course, with six children, you instantly know she understands pain (and is highly able!!), but her admission that she had never thought of the pain she experienced as chronic really struck me.

I'm a top blogger in this day and age of youthful influencers! And I'm also really proud to be a representative of the lived experience among a stream of companies and services listed on FeedSpot's 70 Best Pain Management Blogs and Websites. And, I'm the only Australian-listed blog in the top 40. Rated number six and facing the world with a profile image among business logos, I feel quite chuffed about this achievement.

Own Your Health Data

By |2023-03-27T20:18:57+11:00March 27th, 2023|Categories: Blog, Learn, Manage, Professional Resources|Tags: , |

Self-management is hard, chronic illness is overwhelming. Chronic illness robs you of your independence and control, leaving you feeling defeated and mentally and physically drained. Add to the endless appointments required; now, we also have to be considerate of healthcare systems under pressure. Guess who gets the short end of the stick? We pay with our lives. Perhaps healthcare systems were destined to burst their stitches because healthCARE was never built to care for people; it was made to keep people relying on it. That's not care. Can taking more ownership of our health make a difference?
