    Jamie-Lynn Sigler talks health and wellness - Jane’s guest today is Jamie-Lynn Sigler, one of our youngest acting icons. Twenty-five years ago, she came into our living rooms as rebellious teenage Mafia daughter, Meadow, in the HBO drama, The Sopranos, and hasn’t stopped since. Indeed, for six seasons as we saw her try to deal with the crosscurrents of her complicated family, we were completely unaware of the serious personal turmoil she was secretly enduring: A diagnosis of Relapsing Multiple Sclerosis (RMS). Since that time, she has worked on countless projects, including, most recently, starring in the ABC series Big Sky and co-hosting her podcast Not Today, Pal with Sopranos brother, Robert Iller. She’s also a full-time wife and mom of two young boys. So, how does she manage it all? Well, we’ll find out on this segment. Jamie-Lynn and Jane will also talk how she started in show business, how she came to be cast in The Sopranos, (hint: she thought she’d have to sing soprano!), and how she is able to combine motherhood, her work, and everything else she does. She also shares with us how she copes with day to day stress, and how she manages her ever-present RMS. To that end, she discusses her partnership with Novartis on their reframingMS.com campaign that is based on the Three Rs: Reflecting, Reframing and Reaching out. The message's value is also of benefit to us all, whatever our challenges, in our quest to look and feel Better Than before.
