    Have you ever caught yourself dwelling on what your health challenges have taken from you? It’s natural. I’ve been there, too. Living with Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) isn’t easy—but as I reflect on my journey, I’ve realized something powerful: what RA has taken from me pales in comparison to what it’s given me. My story may surprise you, and I hope it inspires you to look beyond the pain to find the strength, wisdom, and resilience within. This isn’t just about RA—it’s about embracing whatever life throws at us and learning to thrive in spite of it. Stay tuned and discover how challenges can shape us, empower us, and remind us of our true strength.

    ⏰ 01:00 - Introduction

    ⏰ 01:52 - What inspired me to make this episode

    ⏰ 06:43 - The problem with “support” groups

    ⏰ 10:43 - Five things rheumatoid arthritis has taken from me

    ⏰ 22:43 - How my life is different now

    ⏰ 29:14 - The ONE thing you can do to activate self-healing

By applying what he has learned over the last 15 years in many advanced training programs, along with mentorships under several practitioners across the full spectrum of healing, Michael has been able to experience radical improvements in quality of life and resilience during difficult times.
