A Cheat Sheet for Disabled Travelers
Aired Friday, April 28, 2023 at 4:00 PM PST / 7:00 PM EST
I love to travel, thank goodness, because I have to travel for work… And after about three years off the travel treadmill, the world of going out and about, both for vacation and business, is open again. I was surprised at how every plane, bus, or train I was on recently was packed! And, even as a seasoned traveler, my recent trip was one surprise after another.
This week, I’m doing something a bit different… My friend Liberty Forrest and I are chatting about our recent experiences traveling with long-term conditions. Now, we can’t cover all the folly and foibles of traveling while ‘disabled.’ (I hate the term ‘disabled,’ yet that’s the label the travel industry seems to like to use.) But Liberty and I are giving it a go!
Listen in to our travel adventures and misadventures and the lessons we’ve learned, and I invite you to share your learnings and lessons of travel with an invisible illness with us in the comments section.
In our time together, Liberty and I share about why my cane is now “not a cane” and how my cane became ‘headless’ plus
• Stories of travel disasters that we can now laugh about,
• Considerations for documentation on medications, medical devices, and symptoms,
• Ways to evaluate your medications, vaccinations, etc., and what might be legal or not at your destination,
• Thoughts on keeping ‘Murphys Law’ at bay, including the importance of pre-planning worst-case scenarios’… and so much more…
More about our Guest:
Our guest, Liberty Forrest, is an award-winning author, speaker, and contributor to numerous informational publications, including Huffington Post. She is also a senior contributor at SportsEdTV. And, a lover of really dumb jokes and the creator of the “Witchy” cartoons. Check out her articles over at Medium (https://medium.com/@libertyforrestauthor). And she has written numerous fiction and nonfiction books covering various topics. She loves sharing what she’s learned throughout her healing journey, personal development, and spiritual study.

What (Really) Goes Into Forgiveness That Works with Dr. Shawne Duperon

What (Really) Goes Into Forgiveness That Works with expert Dr. Shawne Duperon
Aired Friday, April 14, 2023 at 4:00 PM PST / 7:00 PM EST
WOWZA! I was blown away by where my chat with Dr. Shawne Duperon, the founder of Project Forgive and one of the world’s leading experts on forgiveness went. That’s right! Blown away…
And I am thrilled to welcome to The Autoimmune Hour my friend Dr. Shawne. In addition to Project Forgive, she founded ShawneTV; she is a winner of Six EMMY® awards, 28 EMMY® nominations, and her conflict resolution tool, The Apology (You’ll Never Receive)TM garnered the honor of a Nobel Peace Prize Nomination.
Why the topic of forgiveness? Current studies have linked past traumas to playing a part in specific immune dysfunction. It is an accepted standard that too much stress adds to inflammation—a common component in autoimmune diagnoses. And general population research shows prolonged anger, hostility, and bitterness are linked to health risks like depression and heart disease. So, in our time together,
Dr. Shawne shares many “juicy” thought-provoking truths and ideas, including
• Why forgiveness isn’t what most people think, and what it really is;
• Tips on knowing yourself, your needs, staying present, and letting go;
• The five stages of forgiveness (Hint, ‘forgive and forget’ isn’t one of them);
• Triggers, boundaries, and how the words we use can change outcomes,
Plus, her world-famous conflict resolution tool, “The Apology (You’ll Never Receive)TM” and much more.
More about our Guest:
With a Ph.D. in Good Gossip Theory, Six EMMY® awards, 28 EMMY® nominations, and an organic social media reach topping 100 million per month, Dr. Shawne Duperon of ShawneTV is considered to be one of the most innovative and influential consultants and trainers on communication today. As a recognized TV producer, Dr. Shawne strengthens organizations with compelling and strategic messaging for Prime Time. She never imagined when she produced a 5-minute video on forgiveness, it would go viral, attract the attention of worldwide media coverage, inspire global leaders such as Archbishop Desmond Tutu, or even garner the honor of a Nobel Peace Prize nomination. And that’s precisely what happened.
Dr. Shawne continues to educate corporations, universities, governments, and entrepreneurs, on how to effectively communicate to increase engagement, retention, and strategic disruption in the workplace. Her progressive livestreams and virtual facilitations on forgiveness in leadership amplify inclusion, respect, and engagement. Dr. Shawne also consistently shares her journey of forgiveness after being molested as a child. She models a courageous ability to forgive the unforgivable and shares that ability by developing curriculum through evidence-based research and innovative tools.

Can I Have a Healthy Baby When I Have An Autoimmune?
Aired Friday, April 7, 2023 at 4:00 PM PST / 7:00 PM EST
In my health journey, I’ve learned there are multiple things we can do to increase our odds of a positive outcome. That’s why we are happy to welcome back Nikki Burnett, MS CNTP MNT, a Functional Nutritionist and Founder of Taste Life Nutrition, to discuss a topic we have yet to chat about… autoimmune and fertility.
We call Nikki Burnett our ‘Health Detective’ because Nikki has been on both sides: in practice for seven years as a Functional Nutritionist and over 20 years of study, Nikki is a thriver too. After suffering a 2-year headache that affected every part of her life and dealing with the frustration of feeling helpless with no answers, she decided to take her health into her own hands.
Over time and with consistent research into many health modalities, Nikki found the answers she needed to heal. Now Nikki is helping her clients regain their health, and along the way, she has discovered a passion for helping those struggling with infertility.
In this episode, Nikki shares with us
• How even small changes in your nutrition can make a significant impact,
• How your environment can affect your fertility,
• What hormones have to do with your immune system, autoimmune and fertility,
• Tips to consider when trying for a family plus much more…
More about our guest:
Through her program called SoulFull Conception, Nikki Burnett helps you achieve optimal health so that when it is time to try for a family, you are prepared and have a plan of action for your and your baby’s health.
After graduating from The Nutrition Therapy Institute, Nikki opened Taste of Life Nutrition, where she and her dedicated team look at each person as a whole, not separate parts. No one-size-fits-all approach will suffice as you rejuvenate your life. She and her team are dedicated to finding balance in the bodies of both the mother and father is necessary to create and maintain a pregnancy and your perfect little person.

Sometimes our mind runs away with us when ‘everything hurts.’ And it’s easy to get discouraged when you don’t see your desired wellness results. This week’s guest, Eileen Laird, is a writer, podcast host, and autoimmune warrior, living a vital life with rheumatoid arthritis. She’s reached millions through her popular website and podcast, Phoenix Helix, where she shares information and inspiration for autoimmune health.
In this episode, she shares from her immediately useful ‘roadmap’ book, called ‘Healing Mindset: A Guide to the Mind-Body Connection for People with Autoimmune Disease,’ including:

More About Our Guest:
Reflecting on her diagnosis in 2012, Eileen Laird shares, “rheumatoid arthritis hit my life like a wrecking ball. I went from a fit, healthy woman who worked full-time as a massage therapist and hiked on the weekends for fun to someone who limped crossing her living room and didn’t have the strength in her hands and wrists to wash dishes… I woke up feeling 90 years old in the morning, and that was the good part of my day….” Today she’s taken all she is learning and sharing it as an award-winning writer, podcast host, and autoimmune warrior living a vital life with rheumatoid arthritis.
Heard my millions, Eileen’s podcast ‘Phoenix Helix’ offers an empowered approach to autoimmune health.

Food For Thought: Is Your Healthy Eating Making You Sick?
Aired Friday, February 24, 2023 at 4:00 PM PST / 7:00 PM EST
Are you down to a handful of foods and screaming, “I don’t know what to eat!” Now, we’re not minimizing food sensitivities or allergies. I’ve got several severe ones myself, yet in my years of doing the show and meeting many in the autoimmune world, I’ve noticed a fair share, without testing, have thrown out whole food groups to the point where they are only eating a handful of food types — which is not healthy either.
Look, our nutrition needs are individual and nuanced. That’s why I invited Amanda Mittman, MS, RDN, LDN, and founder of Happy Valley Nutrition, to help us explore why so many of those diagnosed with autoimmunity have disorganized, disordered eating patterns and many foods, including multiple food groups, are on their ‘no-no’ lists…
Amanda gets it. Her teen and early adult ‘food rules’ were neither attainable, sustainable, or, most importantly, healthy. Those ‘food rules’ led her to be diagnosed with disordered eating and orthorexia. (I’ve heard about other eating disorders, such as anorexia, yet I was unfamiliar with orthorexia. Orthorexia can be best described as an ‘unhealthy focus on eating in a healthy way.’)
