Episode Synopsis

September is Sickle Cell Awareness Month, and our guest for Episode 11 has a compelling story about how she learned about the disease.

Elle Cole is a writer and founder of CleverlyChanging.com, a lifestyle blog that focuses on “Empowering the Total Person.”

Elle and her husband have two daughters—twins. One of them has sickle cell disease, so the ups and downs of this genetic disorder are well known to them.

As an advocate and blogger, Elle hones in on sharing educational information the disease, the trait--which her other daughter has, how both are inherited, and about symptoms and treatments.

She also talks about the importance of empowering her daughter to advocate for herself as a patient.
