Rare Disease

Finding a medical professional who meets your needs and helps you feel comfortable, heard, and understood is a vital part of your health care. Whether it's a nearby primary care physician, a specialist for a specific condition, or a therapist or psychiatrist in your network, what essential quality do you look for when choosing someone to join your medical support team?

Let’s share our go-to personal care and hygiene products to cap off this week’s self-care challenge!

Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks really loves Dr. Bronner’s body lotion and soap bars and finds them to be great products for her. 🙂

Reflecting on meaningful moments—whether positive, challenging, surprising, or unexpected—can influence your perspective, guide how you navigate life, and help define the person you choose to become.

For today’s #MightyMinute , think about a moment that stands out to you. It could be a conversation that left a lasting impression, a relationship that deeply mattered, a proud accomplishment, an experience that changed how you make decisions, or a turning point in your health journey.

What are the moments that matter most to you?

Hi, Mighty friends!

Today is Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks birthday, and she’s feeling a bit conflicted. On one hand, she wants to feel excited and proud of herself for continuing to do her best. On the other hand, her birthday brings up thoughts about everything she hasn’t accomplished or experienced yet — things she still hopes for. She’s working on practicing mindfulness, but it’s definitely a challenge.

What are your thoughts on birthdays?

Hygiene shortcuts can be a lifesaver, especially in those moments when we want to quickly and efficiently get our needs met without expending all of our energy. These shortcuts can look like creating schedules and reminders, as well as knowing what kinds of products to use that make hygiene more accessible (dry shampoo, anyone?).

Mighty staffer @sparklywartanks hacks include listening to music while she’s in the shower to motivate her and wake her up in the morning, scheduling less work to get done on her hair-washing days so she has more energy, and buying her toiletries and personal care products in bulk so she doesn’t have to worry about them running out quickly.

If you’re feeling stuck, anxious, or just emotionally blah… here’s a gentle nudge: Get creative.

Not for productivity. Not for perfection. But to feel better.

Whether it’s painting, doodling, building something, or solving a puzzle—creativity helps you escape the chaos in your head and drop into the present moment. And bonus: it actually strengthens your ability to adapt and problem-solve when life throws curveballs.

🎯 Want to feel more flexible, spontaneous, and emotionally resilient?
