My Health Story & Heart Behind Creating The dys-FUNCTIONAL Podcast

My Health Story & Heart Behind Creating The dys-FUNCTIONAL Podcast

In this first official dys-FUNCTIONAL podcast episode, I’m sharing an overview of my personal dysautonomia story. From facing disbelief to being wrongly placed in an eating disorder clinic and then having to travel across the country for my third dysautonomia diagnosis, my path has been a turbulent one – a story unfortunately shared by WAY too many others dealing with dysautonomia and similar conditions. Join me for the full episode to discover how it became the driving force behind the creation of the dys-FUNCTIONAL podcast. 

I hope my story doesn’t feel relatable, but if it does I hope it makes you feel seen, heard, understood and not alone in your journey. Thanks so much for being here!

I love you, I mean it.

xx Haley James

Hi! I'm Haley James

I’m a multi-passionate & purpose-driven entrepreneur, non-profit founder, chronic illness activist & advocate, podcaster, speaker, and healthy home interior designer – but really I’m just a girl trying to find her way, who loves making things that I hope matter and make a positive difference in people’s lives!

After being sick for 10 years with over 20 chronic and rare conditions, needing a feeding tube and weekly infusions to survive, I learned how short & fragile life is. As I began to heal, I realized all I really wanted to do with my time was pay forward all the love, support, and help that others gave me in my time of need. 

So that’s what I try to do here: share my story and journey to help inspire, empower, and equip others to turn their struggles into their strengths and create a life they truly love—filled with passion, purpose, and positive impact—while I work to do the same! I hope you’ll join me!
