Filmed live between World Arthritis Day and World Psoriasis Day, we are joined by special guest Angela Laborde, an American who lives with psoriatic arthritis, among other conditions.

In Part 1, we discuss Angela's diagnosis journey with multiple chronic and autoimmune conditions, the challenges she overcame to get those diagnoses and the daily impact that has on her. We also touch upon the vital role that community and advocacy play in her life now.

Come back for Part 2, where we will also discuss her volunteering work, how she helps others, why it's important, and how volunteering can help you cope with your health challenges.
