Ep11: "You Don’t LOOK Sick" — A TV Anchor Living and Thriving With Lupus

from I Choose Happy With Marilyn · host The Comfy

When TV news anchor Mindy Basara began feeling a crushing exhaustion she couldn’t explain, doctors told her it was “just perimenopause.” But she knew something deeper was wrong. In this candid conversation, Mindy opens up about her long road to a lupus diagnosis, the invisible battles that came with it, and how she learned to slow down, advocate for herself, and choose joy anyway.From sleepless shifts in the newsroom to learning to rest without guilt, this episode shines a light on what it means to live with an autoimmune disease that can’t always be seen—and how Mindy redefined success, strength, and self-care along the way.------Connect with Marilyn and be a part of the conversation in the I Choose Happy private Facebook group.
