Living With Alkalizing Spondylosis

Thirty, Flirty, and Nerdy

When you think of disabilities a lot of them are noticable. Some are non-noticable and hidden. My friend Julianna has a verity of disabilities that she talks about on the podcast today. We chat about Alkalizing Spondylosis (the hunchback illness) and dyslexia. This is a very inspiring story to listen to as she explains her journey into this chronic illness and how it doesn't stop her from doing what she loves to do.

Julianna is a podcaster, runner, Harry Potter nerd (she's a Hufflepuff), demisexiual, dietitian, “spondy” and dog mom. Julianna lives on Cape Cod in Massachusetts with her pittie Myrtle. Her two podcasts, Puffcast (Your Harry Potter Happy Place) and Into the Fold (A Grishaverse Podcast), are independently produced by herself with her two best friends Mel and Geoff. By day, she works as a registered dietitian for the VA. When she’s not walking her dog, podcasting or talking Potter she can be found running. She has run two Boston Marathons and ran the Chicago Marathon in fall 2022. She also has a chronic illness called Alkalizing Spondylosis (see “spondy” above) and is currently on the journey to finding her best treatment plan to combat this condition. She has an indying spark of passion for everything she does.

In this episode we chat about: - How Julianna discovered her Alkalizing Spondylosis - Personal and mental health illnesses and how it is taboo to discuss as children - Julianna's love for Harry Potter and how Dyslexia and ADHD didn't stop her from enjoying reading - Her journey into finding the right treatment plan for Alkalizing Spondylosis - Fighting corrporate to allow her to use marijana as a pain relaxer when they don't allow medical marijana.
