Empowered EDS: Your Path to Living Well with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome and Chronic Illness For those of you living with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS), Hypermobility Spectrum Disorders (HSD), and other chronic health conditions or supporting someone who does, you know it's more than just a diagnosis—it's a journey. Hosted by Lauren Prince, MSW, FDN-P, and Jason Cole, DPT, founders of Connective Wellness, Empowered EDS is here to provide compassionate, expert guidance for managing EDS symptoms and the complex realities of living with a connective tissue disorder. Lauren intimately understands the personal challenges of EDS, having spent decades navigating symptoms without answers and struggling to understand her own body. Jason, a specialist in hypermobility and EDS care, brings deep professional expertise and a passion for helping patients better understand how to care for themselves. Together, they blend personal experience with in-depth training and evidence-based insights to offer you a new perspective on living well with EDS! Each episode of Empowered EDS explores holistic, sustainable approaches to chronic illness, from lifestyle medicine and pain management to mental health support and community-building. We'll cover topics like finding the right EDS treatment options, coping with chronic pain and fatigue, understanding the EDS diagnosis process, and creating a personalized path to resilience. Expect to hear from medical experts, community members, and advocates who share tips, strategies, and heartfelt stories for thriving with EDS. Empowered EDS isn't just about managing symptoms—it's about empowering you to take control of your health and connect with others who understand. Join us on this journey toward greater well-being, because no one should have to face EDS alone. Subscribe to Empowered EDS for actionable insights, uplifting stories, and a supportive community dedicated to helping you live your best life with EDS!
