Introduction and Changes in the Podcast
Welcome back to Living WOW Out Loud. I am your host, CallyRae! It has been a long time since I’ve downloaded a new episode or recorded a new episode, and I am back. I’m super excited but there have been many changes that have happened since I took what I thought was going to be a 3 month pause from the podcast so that I could get through that senior year of high school with my last daughter at home and it turned into a year and a half.
Transitioning from Surviving to Thriving
I’ll review some of the changes that have happened while I’ve been away and lay out the new season structure and purpose. Some announcements are made regarding new content coming this season as I move from transformation coach with 8 Lessons Lupus Taught Me: From Surviving to Thriving with Autoimmune Diseases and the Change Your Story Presentation. This season I function as a lifestyle engineer having created the framework to thrive with autoimmune diseases Living WOW and serving as your guide to become the expert in your body.
The Power of Lifestyle Choices in Autoimmune Health
I’m not alone and we now have scientific research coming out that’s actually giving the “why” I had the experience that I’ve had and that I’m not just a one-off, I’m not an anomaly, but that it is lifestyle and that our lifestyle really does affect our health and can change things. Yes, we have a genetic predisposition but that doesn’t mean that it’s set in stone. We are now starting to really understand why.
I’m talking about a lifestyle. I’m not talking about how much wealth you have or your fashion. I’m talking about the choices you make day in and day out for what you put in your mind, what you put in your mouth, what you put in your heart.
Right? Those choices you make. How you spend your time, the choices you make have an absolute direct impact on your health. Your lifestyle has a 100% impact on your health.
Building A Supportive Community
There is a second book coming but this is kind of a sneak peek here on the podcast. This will be more interactive, I hope. I really want to engage the community.
As I look around and listen to different narratives and different conversations, I think you need me too. Because I feel like you need the information and inspiration. You need to know that you are enough. You need to know that you’re not broken and in disrepair. Our bodies are designed to heal if we give them the environment to do so.
Inviting Stories and Questions from Listeners
I know that you feel alone. I know that you feel scared. I know that you feel frustrated. I know that you feel tired. I know that you probably have pain. I know that you’re probably saying, “whose body is this”? What is happening in my body because I don’t recognize it or I don’t like it?
All of those different narratives have run rampant throughout my autoimmune journey. You are not alone. That’s why I’m here.
Shout out to Jenna Rae my youngest daughter and previous assistant for all of the Change Your Story book tour and presentations. She is the product of Living WOW and I couldn’t be prouder as she releases her debut single “Life Inside My Head” as an indie pop artist on June 30, 2024. Follow her on Instagram and TikTok to see her amazing talent.
