Super excited about our upcoming episode March 7th with Associate Director of Medical Services, Juliet Pierce.

Topic: Dysphagia and Swallowing Challenges in MS

Meet our guest: Juliet has been a multidisciplinary Registered Nurse for 30 years with expertise that includes ER/trauma, ICU, OR, and neurology. In 2013, she began a collaboration with Paralyzed Veterans of America (PVA) on behalf of Veterans with neuromuscular disease. In April 2021, she joined PVA as an Associate Director of Medical Services. Growing up the daughter of a Marine instilled in her a lifelong desire to support our Veterans.

MS is often called an invisible disease.

Why?

Because there are people with MS who struggle with some symptoms that are not outwardly visible.

Every day that I wake up, I never know what I’m going to get or how I’m going to feel. Although I am highly functional with my MS there is a constant struggle each and every day with symptoms that I can’t always explain and others can’t see.

People often assume that because they can’t physically see anything wrong with you that you are good.

This makes it challenging sometimes to explain to others how or why we can feel so bad or be in so much pain.

03/11/2021

Last Friday was a day that brought up a lot of thoughts, emotions and self-reflection as I hit my 3 year mark of military separation.

Looking back on my time in the service I learned a lot about myself, I challenged myself, I had setbacks, and I had great achievements, but for the first time in my life I knew exactly who I was and what I was meant to do.

As many of you already know I was medically retired when I was diagnosed with MS in 2017 and I was forced to make a pivot in my life and my career.

That first year after being separated was a turning point in my life. I had some really low moments during that time and I had to decide if this transition was going to “refine me” or “define me”…and the decision rested solely on me.

So I used the lessons I learned during my time in the service and charted a new path for my life and my career.

✔️I learned that I can do hard things.
✔️I learned the value of discipline and hard work.
✔️I learned that success comes from challenging ourselves and stepping outside the boundaries of our comfort zone.
✔️I learned how to manage stress and take care of myself because I can’t show up for my team if I am not ready.
✔️I learned the power of teamwork, support and encouragement of others - you are only as strong as your weakest member
✔️I learned the power of persistence because things don’t always go according to plan and we need to be able to make adjustments and pivot.
✔️I learned that having a mission, being part of something bigger than myself provides a great sense of pride and self-confidence.

I am grateful for where I am today!

A little R & R with my favorite person @nicolelee_09.20.19 ❤️ How do you recover and re-energize? . . .

Gratitude, Kindness, and Caring are more powerful than any problem you have.

People tend to get sucked into the negativity and depth of their own problems and we often forget that we are not alone in our suffering because there are others that have pain, others are suffering, and dealing with their own problems. ✅ Find three things each day you are grateful for. ✅ Practice one random act of kindness each day. ✅ Care for yourself and others. . . . #multiplesclerosis #ms #mswarrior #msawareness #chronicillness #msfighter #multiplesclerosisawareness #invisibleillness #thisisms #autoimmunedisease #multiplesclerosisfighter #msstrong #multiplesclerosiswarrior #chronicpain #mssucks #mswarriors #mssociety #mslife #multiplesklerose #mssupport #spoonie #curems #livingwithms #mscommunity #msfamily #spoonielife #f**kms #multiplesclerosissociety #veteranswithms

Our mind is the most powerful weapon we have. The stories you replay in your head MATTER 💯, the words you tell yourself MATTER 💯 The belief in yourself MATTERS 💯 This doesn't mean that fear isn't there and that doubt doesn't creep in, but in those moments you have to be strong, you have to be able to interrupt and redirect those thoughts into power statements, and use those stories to fuel your action 🔋 💥 because if you think you CAN'T, you WON'T. . . . #mentaltraining #sports #sportpsych #coach #mindset #mentalhealth #mentalskills #mentaltoughness #performancepsychologytips #coaching #goals #performancepsychology #performance #training #athlete #mentalcoach #mindfulness #leadership #mentalperformance #hpxlife #highperformancecoach #mswarrior #msfighter #sports #fightingms #veteranswithms #msstrong #bebetter #dobetter

Controlling the Controllables

When you spend time fighting a fight you can't win you are wasting valuable time, energy, and resources. The same thing happens when you are trying to control things that you have no control over. Learning to control the controllables is letting go of the outcomes, identifying things you can control, and putting your time, energy, and focus on those things to eliminate unnecessary stress in your life and help you achieve the desired outcomes.

You Are Not Your Mistakes

There are moments when you make the wrong decision or you make a mistake and you can own it and say, “this isn’t who I am”, or you can make excuses and let those mistakes define you and leave you feeling guilty and full of regret. You have to decide and understand that mistakes happen, but we can either let those mistakes leave us feeling guilty and take us down or we can accept those mistakes and let them motivate us and inspire us to be better and do better.

Our Story

In 2017 my life changed forever. I was diagnosed with MS and found out that my military career would be cut short. Before my diagnosis I had heard of MS, but I knew nothing about it. The only image that popped into my head repeatedly was being in a wheelchair. I was completely ignorant and uneducated about autoimmune diseases like MS. One thing I knew for sure is that my life would never be the same again. I was going to have to make some lifestyle changes and get used to a new normal. We spent the next several months talking with a neurologist and researching MS. Like me, I feel that there are a lot of people who are unaware of autoimmune diseases and the effects that they have.

A simplistic explanation of an autoimmune disease is that the body’s immune system attacks healthy cells causing a variety of symptoms and disabilities. Having an autoimmune disease is not just a one and done episode, rather it is a life altering disease that presents daily challenges one must overcome.

At Elite Warrior Project we know and understand the daily uncertainties and struggles, whether you have an autoimmune disease or you are a caregiver of someone with an autoimmune disease. If there is one thing we have learned throughout this battle with MS it is that we CANNOT do it alone.

Elite Warrior Project has set out to raise awareness and build a community of fighters and supporters. Through education, love, and support we can spread awareness and fight for a cure!
