Hello friend! I’m Cass. Growing up, I was all about dance--living for those moments in the studio. But even then, my body tried to tell me something wasn’t right. Fast forward to college, where I dove headfirst into fitness but found myself constantly battling this mysterious mix of back pain, super tight muscles, and flexibility issues that just wouldn’t quit.
It wasn’t until my 40s that I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia and began gathering resources to manage it. I’m eager the life hacks, mindset strategies, and wellness routines with you through the Rise Above Fibro podcast as we build a supportive community. Though it’s not always easy, together, we can discover solutions to help each of us live our best lives.
Join me on the journey from merely coping to flourishing. Let’s conquer fibro together!
