Marcia speaks with Brandi, a personal trainer and dyslexic artist with Narcolepsy. Brandi gives us the real on narcolepsy, which is totally different from what Hollywood sells us. She also shares her navigating her new body and building new businesses while living with a chronic illness. Listen for great tips on pacing and fatigue management and maybe to laugh at our corny AF jokes.

In this episode, fellow powerlifter Rachael discusses how she’s navigated with a late diagnosis of ADHD, dyslexia, dyspraxia and sensory issues both in the workplace and in strength sports.
