Living with arthritis isn’t just physical — it’s emotional, too. 💚

In the latest episode of the Arthritis Foundation’s Live Yes! With Arthritis podcast, “Grief, Guilt & Finding Grace,” we explore the feelings that often go unspoken — like grieving the life you imagined or feeling guilty about how arthritis impacts the people you love.

This powerful conversation with a chronic pain therapist shares real, compassionate strategies for navigating those emotions, setting boundaries and finding a new sense of self along the way.
