More About Our Guest: Reflecting on her diagnosis in 2012, Eileen Laird shares, “rheumatoid arthritis hit my life like a wrecking ball. I went from a fit, healthy woman who worked full-time as a massage therapist and hiked on the weekends for fun to someone who limped crossing her living room and didn’t have the strength in her hands and wrists to wash dishes... I woke up feeling 90 years old in the morning, and that was the good part of my day….” Today she’s taken all she is learning and sharing it as an award-winning writer, podcast host, and autoimmune warrior living a vital life with rheumatoid arthritis.

Heard my millions, Eileen’s podcast ‘Phoenix Helix’ offers an empowered approach to autoimmune health.
