Listen "Meet Karen Duncan: Learning to Win Without Surrender"
Episode Synopsis
Karen Duncan's Story: Living with an invisible illness often brings relentless self-doubt: “Am I really sick, or just being lazy?” Through my experience, I’ve learned that embracing your limitations is not a sign of weakness—it’s a crucial step toward managing chronic health effectively.One key lesson: focus on just three important tasks a day—prioritize them, and treat everything else as extra. This simple approach completely changed how I navigate life with chronic illness while running a business.In this conversation, I share how my life shifted when Covid altered my body’s abilities, taking away basic functions like proper breathing and pain-free movement. I found strength by using digital tools to turn the “spoon theory” into concrete data, helping me make wiser decisions and maintain balance.As co-host of the "Three Spoonies" podcast, I discuss how entrepreneurs managing chronic illness can succeed by setting clear boundaries, building strong support systems, and communicating openly.If you’re on a health journey or supporting someone who is, this talk offers practical tips, heartfelt insight, and encouragement to live well within new limits. Tune in to discover how adapting can unlock unexpected strength and new opportunities.YOUTUBE link: https://youtu.be/m_mW_CyeKro
