There’s a reason they call this man a genius 💡 Lately I’ve been trying to remind myself of what motivates me and why I even started writing about & sharing my experience as someone living with #chronicillness. And yesterday I told myself to always remember that my motivation is the hope that someone can either learn from my experiences or be encouraged by words. If i work toward doing something with the right intentions, then hopefully the success will then follow 💯 What motivates you? What value do you hope to bring to the world around you? ••• #alberteinstein #wednesdaywisdom #motivation

This weekend was a busy one! But in such a wonderful way. I was grateful to have been feeling well so that I could enjoy the fall weather, some good wine and time with some of my favorite people. 🍂🍷🧡 ••• #mondaymood #fall

How many of us are guilty of jumping to conclusions like the ones below: • there’s no coming back from this kind of loss • I’ve been told “no” so there’s no point in trying or asking again • since this one medication didn’t work, none of the others will either • my pain level is so bad today, I know it will be bad again tomorrow and the whole rest of this week 🙋🏼‍♀️Hi, my name is Mary and I’m guilty of all of the above. We should be constantly reminding ourselves that just because we failed once, doesn’t mean we will fail again. And just because something has failed us once, doesn’t mean it will fail us again. Instead of jumping to the conclusion that you will he defeated or that things will never get better, instead be hopeful and jump to the conclusion that you will succeed and that things are on the up! ••• #fscottfitzgerald #quotes #patientadvocate #wednesdaywisdom

Being in college with a chronic illness is all about preparation and adaption! Read my latest #post for some tips & tricks if you are a college student with chronic illness! 🏫📓Link in bio! ••• #college #student #chronicillness

Somebody said this to me last week and it really stuck with me 💛 Keep sharing your story, because you never know who out there you could be & probably are inspiring, encouraging and comforting 🌻 #chronicillness #patientadvocate #shareyourstory

“Belonging shouldn’t mean you are like everyone else” - Misty Copeland Even though I’m clearly trying to blend in with my surroundings in this picture 🌿🌴I truly believe that you should do what you need to do to differentiate yourself from everybody else, because that’s what you’re made to do. You were made to be unique and to share your unique gifts with the world around you. ✨
