What’s the longest amount of time you’ve spent in a waiting room?

Mighties, we know all too well what it’s like to spend time waiting—whether that’s in a physical waiting room, on hold over the phone, or virtually through telehealth. Depending on the type of appointment, where we go and how we communicate with a medical professional can look very different.

What’s the longest amount of time you’ve spent waiting to see or speak with your doctor or another medical professional for an appointment?

How do you come to terms with past mistakes?

Making mistakes is a normal part of life. Through them, we learn, adapt, adjust, change, and ultimately grow. Whether a mistake led to short- or long-term consequences, coming to terms with what happened can take time and patience.

Often, the hardest part isn’t the mistake itself, but the process of understanding it over time.

💌 Gentle reminder: We are still worthy of good things even if we've made mistakes!

How do you come to terms with past mistakes? What helps you process, heal, or move forward? Feel free to share a thought, strategy, or reminder with us below.

How do you cope with health-related stress?

Happy Friday, Mighties! 💎

All the responsibilities, tasks, and demands that come with managing, understanding, and living with health conditions or disabilities can be stressful. From doctor visits and appointment planning to waiting for and understanding lab and test results; from navigating uncertainty to tracking new or ongoing symptoms and medications; from advocating for yourself to learning new ways to build habits that support your needs — it can all feel overwhelming at times.

We’re right here with you in that process and on that journey. 🙋‍♀️

What are some ways you cope with health-related stress? What do you find most helpful for balancing, organizing, and prioritizing your health responsibilities? And what tips would you share with someone who’s new to or still figuring out their journey?

What’s on your “need to get to” list?

As we adjust, change, and revisit our daily, weekly, or monthly to-do lists, there are tasks, responsibilities, or goals that naturally rise to the top as priorities—whether because of the time of year or other life factors. Whether they’re health- or self-care–related, or part of our “adulting” duties, what’s something currently on your “need to get to” priority list?

I want to release guilt around _________.

Ah, guilt. It can be a difficult feeling to navigate and process, and it can show up in many different circumstances. When living with one or more health conditions, guilt can surface in ways that affect how we interact with ourselves and those around us.

Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks has felt an immense amount of guilt when she is struggling and needs extra support. At times, it makes her feel like she is burdening others with her recurring symptoms. She wants to release the guilt that comes with having to rely on others. It is OK for her to receive support whenever she needs it.

What is something you want to release guilt around?

💌 Gentle note: You are worthy of love, community, support, recovery, and relief, no matter what guilt tells you. Sending lots of hugs! 💛
