Speaker Bios:
Natalie is a chronically ill online entrepreneur, living her best life despite all the health challenges. She lives with Fibromyalgia, Hashimoto's disease, and a bunch of other conditions ever since she was a young girl. She lives on a sunny island with her family and pets.
Cheryl Crow is an occupational therapist who has lived with rheumatoid arthritis for seventeen years. Her life passion is helping others with rheumatoid arthritis figure out how to live a full life despite arthritis, by developing tools to navigate physical, emotional and social challenges. She formed the educational company Arthritis Life in 2019 after seeing a huge need for more engaging, accessible, and (dare I say) FUN patient education and self-management resources.
