E.179 Living with Arthritis and How to Manage Symptoms with Emily Johnson

In my kitchen this week, I’m joined by Emily Johnson — best-selling author of two cookbooks focused on living and thriving with arthritis.Emily first experienced arthritis symptoms at just four years old and was officially diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis at twenty. Since then, she’s completely transformed her diet and lifestyle to focus on anti-inflammatory living — a change that not only improved her own health but has inspired thousands through her social media and bestselling books.When she was first diagnosed, Emily felt isolated and ashamed, having never heard of anyone her age going through something similar. But through sharing her story, she’s built an incredible community and a safe space for others navigating the same challenges.In this episode, we talk about how diet, lifestyle shifts, and stress management can make a huge difference in how you feel — and how small, mindful changes can have a powerful impact on managing arthritis symptoms.In this episode we discuss:Emily's Arthritis diagnosisWhat triggers her and the lifestyle choices that make a differenceWhat living with Arthritis looks likeTechniques and practices Emily uses to manage her symptomsDietary choicesGiving up alcoholOther wellness practices that make a difference The one thing that made a huge difference Sponsors:CALO - We are sponsored by CALO a food delivery service which provides nutritionist-approved, chef-made meals, delivered fresh, daily.
