In today’s episode, Dawn sits down with Kristin Silverberg—a Registered Nurse and Board Certified Patient Advocate turned Certified Organic Gardener—to explore how the principles of nature offer a surprising path to finding a better balance with autoimmune conditions like rheumatoid arthritis.

Diagnosed with two autoimmune diseases before age 40, Kristin felt dismissed by the very system she once worked in. But the game changed when she began focusing on whole foods which led to growing her own food. Within two years, she was off all medications—and today she teaches others how to create garden ecosystems that nourish the soil and ultimately the body.

Together, Dawn and Kristin unpack the surprising connections between soil health and gut health, how gardening can help calm inflammation, and why slowing down to work with nature—not against it—can radically shift your health journey.

Whether you’re managing RA or just feeling disconnected from your body, this conversation will leave you inspired to reconnect with the rhythms of the earth—and reclaim your health from the ground up.

Happy Listening!

In this personal and science-backed episode, Dawn shares the story of how she went from fearing movement to embracing it as a core part of her reclaiming her health. What started as fear of flares turned into one of the most empowering decisions of her RA journey. You’ll hear why endorphins are more than mood boosters, and how movement supports your body’s natural inflammation regulation—no high-intensity workouts required.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why Dawn thought movement might make her RA worse—and what changed her mind
• The exact shift that helped ease stubborn joint pain when diet alone wasn’t enough
• How endorphins reduce pain, lower stress, and support inflammation recovery
• Why movement helps you transition out of fight-or-flight mode—and into better health
• What type of movement is best when you’re just starting out—and how to listen to your body without overdoing it

If you’re feeling stuck, tired, or afraid to move with RA—this is your permission slip to start.

Happy Listening!

Diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis and feeling like your future has been hijacked? This powerful episode reveals why you were made for so much more than pain, fatigue, and limitation.

Dawn unpacks three compelling reasons why 2025 should be the year you finally say "YES" to investing in yourself. First, she explains how understanding the science behind your condition can transform your perspective on healing. Drawing on Dr. Alessio Fasano's groundbreaking "three-legged stool" autoimmune theory, she breaks down the critical relationship between your genetics, gut health, and environmental triggers in a way that's easy to grasp and immediately actionable.

You'll discover why intestinal permeability (leaky gut) represents a critical piece of the autoimmune puzzle and how addressing this single factor can dramatically reduce symptoms. Dawn's explanation of how hormones, trauma, stress, and infections serve as potential triggers delivers those "aha moments" that connect seemingly unrelated health challenges to your RA symptoms.

Most importantly, this episode challenges the narrative that autoimmune disease only leads to decline. Instead, Dawn shares how addressing the modifiable factors can not only improve current symptoms but actually "future-proof" your health against other concerns like frequent illness, difficult menopause transitions, and elevated heart disease risk. From her perspective as someone stronger at 54 than ever before—despite having RA—she offers tangible hope that you too can move from merely surviving to genuinely thriving.
