Ep. 21 – LAUREN VAKNINE, A Journey From Disability to Remission - My Story
Sunday Oct 04, 2020
Sunday Oct 04, 2020
Welcome back! Reconditioned with Lauren Vaknine was previously Healthy Happy Home with Lauren Vaknine and Tilly Wood. After 2 seasons, we decided that we could use our distinct skillsets and passions more effectively by going solo and I'm feeling very excited about really stepping into my true purpose with this podcast now, and I really think you'll all love what I have in store!
I though it was important to do an episode that explains my story, why keeping this podcast going and starting up again as Reconditioned was important for me, and why I do what I do. So here I take you back through my journey – from a 23-month-old diagnosed with juvenile rheumatoid arthritis, to a teenager rebelling against the world that gave me this illness, leading to a subsequent eating disorder, drugs and abuse, to ending up totally wheelchair-bound, and finally reaching my decade-long journey of intensive self-study to reach long-term remission at the age of 29.
Now a 36-year-old mother of 2, I spend my time helping others achieve their own health and happiness goals, through my writing, speaking and coaching.
It’s been a journey and a half and I want to share it with you so that you can get a full understanding of why I do what I do; why I write and speak about health and wellbeing and why I started this podcast. I hope you enjoy hearing my story and I’d love to hear your comments!
