Today we're joined by someone whose story transforms our understanding of healing and resilience. Alayna Bellquist is an environmental advocate and Lyme disease thriver who has turned her personal health crisis into a mission of hope for thousands in the chronic illness community.When Lyme disease struck, Alayna could have simply focused on treatment and recovery. Instead, she chose a different path—one that led her back to the very environment that had once seemed like the source of her trauma. Through reconnecting with nature, she discovered not just healing, but a profound transformation that she now describes as both empowering and life-changing.What makes Alayna's advocacy particularly compelling is her deep understanding of complex, multi-system chronic illnesses—from Lyme disease to mold illness and conditions like MARCoNS that most people have never heard of. She's not just sharing hope; she's sharing hard-won knowledge about environmental and microbial factors that can make or break someone's healing journey.Today, she guides others through workshops and advocacy work, helping them reclaim not just their health, but their relationship with the natural world. Her message is both scientifically grounded and deeply personal: sometimes what challenges us most, can become our greatest catalyst for transformation.Links from the show:Alayna Bellquist Documentary on Lyme: 'The Quiet Epidemic' •Please sign up for the email list for future notifications• If you would like help starting your own show or podcast, as well as help selecting a microphone and setup for your voice.
