In this episode of Beyond My Diagnosis, I sit down with Catherine Chadwick, registered nurse, transformational life coach, and creator of The Art of Self Craftsmanship, for a deeply thoughtful conversation about responsibility, language, emotional intelligence, and what it truly means to live well with a chronic condition.

Catherine and I explore the idea that doctors treat medicine, but you are responsible for your life. We talk about how language shapes identity, why emotional awareness matters, and how curiosity can replace judgment when navigating health challenges.

This episode is an invitation to become a collaborative partner in your care, rather than handing your power away.

In this episode, you will learn:
• Why your life is your responsibility, even when managing illness
• How language impacts self-confidence and healing
• The difference between problems and challenges
• Why emotional intelligence matters in healthcare and leadership
• How curiosity helps interrupt negative thought loops
• What presence really means in daily life
• Why neuroplasticity gives hope at any age
• How to reframe limitations without denying reality
