A Life Well-Loved with Chronic Illness

About Our Community

Imagine a world where people with chronic illness are empowered to lead their fullest lives, regardless of background, ability, or identity.

That's our goal here. But WHY do we do this?

We aim to provide you resources that support you in restoring your mind, body, and spirit. We believe each and every one of us can empower one another, and that we are stronger together than apart. We believe the more we feel our individual worth and value the more we are able to contribute to the world and can be seen and heard as contributors to society in a positive way.

Okay, but WHO is this for? 

There are separate spaces for those living with Illness (choose between the free and paid membership options below!) and their allies.

Membership Options:

• A Free Starter Membership for those with chronic illness to access free resources for day-to-day life. Monthly mindful movement sessions for ALL bodies and a free self-paced course on endometriosis also included.

• A Paid Community Membership for those with chronic illness to gain momentum through personalized coaching, events, and self-paced learning. Together we move imperfectly forward on our individual journeys with the tools, training and small groups that cultivate a life well-loved where joy and pain can co-exist. 

• “I Want to Be An Ally” Free Membership, a resource space for professionals and loved ones interested in becoming supportive allies to those with chronic illness.

A Little About Rosemarie

Rosemarie spent over 15 years of professional experience as a coach and consultant, earning a Masters in Organizational Development and Leadership and working as an ICF Professional Certified Coach to be build a better world. One that appreciates the true nature and dynamic seasons of life that come with chronic illnesses like endometriosis, and empowers people to build sustainable emotional habits to cultivate a life well-loved, where joy and pain can coexist.

During this time, she experienced delayed and misdiagnosis. She's felt shame, pain, fear, isolation, judgment, physician and appointment anxiety, and treatment roulette. When Rosemarie couldn’t find a community with credentialed leaders that embraced both the joy and pain of illness, she became an advocate in her own right. She began sharing her experiences with endometriosis through #endowillnotwin and coaching others to embrace a full life with their illness, not in spite of it. 

Now, Rosemarie has created this space just for YOU and partners with credentialed professionals and trusted organizations to educate those supporting people living with chronic illness.
