On today’s episode, Ally and I talk about why she wrote a book chronicling her experience, the shift that occurred when she chose homeopathic treatments and lifestyle changes over antibiotics, and how harnessing the power of changing her subconscious perspective has helped her heal.

103. Genevieve Gorder, Designing a Life with Hashimoto’s Thyroiditis and Lyme Disease
Join Genevieve Gorder and host, Harper Spero, for a special IG Live event on February 1st at 11:30am EST! Follow @madevisiblestories on Instagram to tune in.
Interior design star Genevieve Gorder wants to live in the light, not in her illness. What does that mean, exactly? For Genevieve, who has both Lyme disease and Hashimoto’s thyroiditis, it means refusing to stake her identity in her health challenges. On today’s episode, Genevieve talks to me about the role that learning plays in her journey with Lyme and Hashimoto’s, how a home can be healing, and how she maintains her sense of positivity and remains mightier than her illness.
This episode previously aired on February 5th, 2019.
