Today I have a special guest: Meredith. Meredith has a YouTube Channel called Surviving as Mom

Meredith is a stay at home Mom of 4 boys, living in NY. She has an autoimmune disease called Sjogren's Syndrome, Dysautonomia, and more. She is a Youtube mom vlogger, where she shares my experiences as a mom with a chronic illness. Many of her followers also suffer from chronic illness, so they've formed a wonderful, understanding community. She offers experience, support and inspiration to her viewers.

The thing I love about talking to Meredith is the way she is so articulate! Many people picture people who use marijuana as dopey and slow, but Meredith is completely the opposite! She shares her story of how she came to the decision to use medical marijuana, and what it's like. She chooses to use a strain that doesn't have much THC when she's with her boys so she can be her best self with them.

Meredith's advice for moms with health issues: Focus on the good things in your life. Hang on to the hope that this will pass.

Meredith's superpower is: Resiliency. "I just can't give up."
