10 things I’ve learned from 10 years of Chronic Illness.

You are here: Home / Podcast / 10 things I’ve learned from 10 years of Chronic Illness.

October 11, 2023 //  by Kerry Jeffery//  Leave a Comment

October 8th was my 9th anniversary of the Hashimoto’s diagnosis that left me sitting in the ruin of my life, cognitively and physically disabled with no idea if I was going to survive or ever have a chance of recovery.

Because my descent into chronic illness was a year long, worsening process of what I thought at the time was terrible perimenopause symptoms, finding out I had an incurable autoimmune disease was devastating, especially once I discovered just how little actual help, support or knowledge was out there. 

Now 4 diagnoses in and having worked with 100’s of clients around the world helping them overcome the often complex emotions that go along with chronic illness, I’m sharing with you the 10 most important things I’ve learned from 10 years with chronic illness. 

Perhaps they will help you as well. You can listen here on the blog or search and subscribe to The Emotional Autoimmunity Podcast on your favorite podcast player and if you got some good from this episode, please share it with your chronic illness friends and communities.

Listen and subscribe to the Emotional Autoimmunity Podcast.

I’m Kerry Jeffery,  Award Nominated, Internationally Certified Life Coach, Counsellor and Clinical Hypnotherapist.

When I first became chronically ill in 2014, I thought my life was over. I had lost my old self, my career and my ability to care for myself.

I was left sitting in the wreckage of my life trying to find my way back and I couldn’t find a therapist who could even begin to understand how I felt.

So, I became the therapist and coach that I needed to help me rebuild my life. I learned new skills and  created a new emotional framework to find my way to deal with the often complex emotional issues that come with chronic illness.

Now, I help people all over the world learn to do the same and go from surviving, to thriving.

Your new life with chronic illness needs new skills, strategies and expert support from someone who knows exactly how it feels.

You don’t have to keep doing this alone.

“Instead of trying to medicate the problem away or shrug issues off (like the traditional therapist/counsellor/psychiatrists I’ve encountered in the past) you helped me get to the very roots of my anxieties, fears and trauma.”
