“It’s up to us what pace we wanna keep.”
If you’ve had a health challenge hit you sideways and seem to take over your life, this conversation is for you. I got to talk with Dawnmarie about her experience of being diagnosed with MS (multiple sclerosis) and the choices she has made since then to live fully.
Personal health battles and emotional struggles were the fuel for Dawnmarie Deshaies to start the global wellness brand Dawnmariehealthyandfit, LLC. For decades she has lived with and suffered from a chronic autoimmune disease that impacted her life in many different ways – Multiple Sclerosis. Multiple Sclerosis is a disease of the central nervous system, essentially the brain and spinal cord. She went from her rock bottom and a suicide attempt to finding her way back to herself, her joy, and her love.
Through her journey of learning about the disease, personal self-care and finding well-being, an idea was sparked that would allow Dawnmarie to share with others the experience to health, self-care, mindfulness, restoration and positivity. By helping others heal and paying it forward, this has in turn helped to foster her own continual healing. Dawnmarie Deshaies has gathered her leading wellness allies and experts to create a multi-dimensional program that approaches every aspect of real well-being: mindfulness, nutrition, fitness, self-love and positivity.
Dawnmarie shares her story with authenticity and relatability that I love. She is an incredible example of facing some of the hardest parts of life and choosing the very best.
