35: Building Spoonie Friendships with Jasmine Szantyr

35: Building Spoonie Friendships with Jasmine Szantyr

Jasmine Szantyr is a chronic illness blogger & advocate, founder of a production company with her husband, and loving dog mom. Embracing her life with an autoimmune disorder, she used her unique blend of holistic healing and radiant positivity in the face of disbelief to create DrugFreeSpoonie.com -- a blog detailing her health journey with Lyme disease with as few prescription drugs as possible.

In this episode, Jasmine discusses how her challenges with Lyme led her on a journey to finding community, mourning her old life, confronting that grief, and overcoming doubts about her illness. She recounts her frustrations with the years-long process of getting a diagnosis, how impactful a chronic illness can be on relationships, and the importance of trusting your intuition.
