Erika’s Lipedema Journey and the Launch of the Lipedema Summit

Erika’s Lipedema Journey and the Launch of the Lipedema Summit

Hosts Cindy and Kristy welcome Erika, also known as Trail to Health and founder of the Lipedema Summit, who shares her health journey from early signs of lipedema at puberty to a major flare after a 2016 stem cell therapy (using her own fat) pursued following years of severe, initially undiagnosed Lyme and other tick-borne diseases.

Erika describes rapid, hormonally linked weight gain, temporary relief from lymphatic drainage, and eight years of missed recognition by doctors before learning about lipedema through a gym acquaintance and an IV doctor, leading to a formal diagnosis in early 2024 and surgery in March.

She explains her motivation to educate others and outlines the patient-focused Lipedema Summit (June 10–12), featuring 60+ high-production interview-style sessions, free live access, optional replay/VIP Q&As, global experts, and an in-person LA event on June 11 with livestreamed Q&A, plus plans for an ongoing community.00:00 Welcome to the Show00:55 Meet Erika Schlick01:38 Early Signs and Puberty02:08 Tick Bite and Lyme Spiral02:33 Stem Cells and Weight Gain03:13 Searching for Answers04:32 Finally a Lipedema Diagnosis07:55 Why She Started Sharing09:31 Creating the Lipedema Summit12:43 Dates Passes and Access13:23 Who the Summit Helps14:50 Why Virtual Matters16:44 Sneak Peek at Speakers17:04 Speaker Lineup Highlights18:19 Practical Care Sessions18:32 How to Register19:12 Future Summits Community20:22 In Person LA Event21:32 Soft Landing Support23:03 Family Early Awareness26:40 Doctor Education Push27:54 Balancing Health Work30:25 Final Invite Wrap Up
