 | Julie Croner @justagoodlife Hey everybody! It's Julie from @wegohealth. I'm a #PsoriaticArthritis Patient Leader and tweeting from Pittsburgh, Pa today! #WEGOHealthChat |
 | Social Health Network @socialhealthnet Welcome to May's #WEGOHealthChat! We're excited to have a heavy hitting Patient Leader here today with us as our special guest. Please join us in welcoming @pettigrew66 as our co-host for today's chat. |

She's definitely a force to be reckoned with in the MS community. #WEGOHealthChat If you'd like to learn more about Mary, check out her site & follow her channels: https://t.co/Hc5jaNghYs |
| Social Health Network @socialhealthnet In today's #WEGOHealthChat, we'll ask a series of questions. We will label the questions Q1 - Q6 (Q for question). When you respond to the question, please start your tweet with the corresponding A1 - A6. (A for answer) |
| Social Health Network @socialhealthnet After having an experience at #HealtheVoices19, @pettigrew66 started thinking more and more about balance in her life. Because of this, we've decided to dedicate the next hour to talking about BALANCE! #WEGOHealthChat |
| Social Health Network @socialhealthnet In this #WEGOHealthChat we'll be tweeting about finding the balance between advocacy, chronic illness and all of your other 5000+ competing priorities. Let's get ready to dive into question 1. |
| Social Health Network @socialhealthnet Balance is key to everything we do in life. FINDING that balance is most important for anyone, yet especially important for those with chronic illness and for those who spend passionate time and purpose as a patient advocate. #WEGOHealthChat |

| Mary P. Pettigrew @pettigrew66 @mayanorthen So glad you’re here!! #WEGOHealthChat |
| sick lately, words bad (check 📌 for discord info) @bennessb A1: My biggest problem with balance is really just knowing when to prioritize rest and when to prioritize... everything else. And how to clearly communicate to people when rest needs to happen. #WEGOHealthChat |
| 𝐓𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐊𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐨𝐬 @TiffanyKairos @lisadbudzinski @Cpnervecenter @bbhomebody 👋🏼☺️Hi Lisa!! #WEGOHealthChat 💜♥ |

| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski @TiffanyKairos @Cpnervecenter @bbhomebody Hi Tiffany!! ✨💕✨ #WEGOHealthChat |
| Maya Northen Augelli @mayanorthen A1: Absolutely. Working full time in a non-related field, it's tricky to find time for my passions including advocacy, my family, house/chores/errands, self-care, and everything else. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Angels Of Epilepsy, Inc.© @AOEpilepsy @wegohealth A1.) Yes, there was and still is a struggle for me with balancing being a parent, dealing with my condition #epilepsy, and the advocacy life with AOE. But I try my best to organize and have patience to help me. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Mary P. Pettigrew @pettigrew66 RT @wegohealth: “Balance is the key to everything. What we do, think, say, eat, feel…they are all require awareness – and through awareness, we can grow. ~ Koi Fresco #WEGOHealthChat |
 | Kayla Nelson @lifeoflesion It's rare I can make these but happy to be here for this topic. I could definitely use more balance in my life! Greetings, all! I advocate mostly for MS and I'm tweeting from MN. #WEGOHEALTHCHAT https://t.co/clyYqFg0Im |
| Angels Of Epilepsy, Inc.© @AOEpilepsy RT @wegohealth: Q1 Do you find yourself struggling with finding a balance between your life, family, condition, advocacy life and everything in between? #WEGOHealthChat |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski A1 Only when a new wrench is thrown into the madness of what is my world 😉 #WEGOHealthChat |

| Maya Northen Augelli @mayanorthen A1: Prime example, trying to participate in this chat and also do my jobby job at the moment. #wegohealthchat |
| 𝐓𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐊𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐨𝐬 @TiffanyKairos @wegohealth A1. Sometimes I do, I did so more in the beginning of my advocacy but as time progressed I developed a way of maintaining a method of balancing advocacy/life. It’s so important for mental health. If we aren’t healthy, we can’t help others. #WEGOHealthChat 💜♥ |
| Social Health Network @socialhealthnet It's obvious #PatientLeaders are superheroes, but even superheroes get tired, right? #WEGOHealthChat |
| Mary P. Pettigrew @pettigrew66 A1: It’s a struggle especially when you’re keenly aware you’re balance is off kilter, but it takes awhile to change habits, stress, etc. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Alan Brewington @abrewi3010 A1 balance, I have no idea what that means anymore. If I don’t cry from pain or stress, is that a balance day? #WEGOHealthChat |
| Angels Of Epilepsy, Inc.© @AOEpilepsy RT @wegohealth: Retweet if you struggle to ask for help 🙋 #WEGOHealthChat |
| Julie Croner @justagoodlife RT @wegohealth: It's obvious #PatientLeaders are superheroes, but even superheroes get tired, right? #WEGOHealthChat |

| Social Health Network @socialhealthnet Let's move to Q2 about prioritizing! Prioritizing your time can seem tough, but if done right it can truly help you focus on bringing balance to your life. #WEGOHealthChat |
| sick lately, words bad (check 📌 for discord info) @bennessb @TiffanyKairos @wegohealth Mental health should be at the center of every conversation about managing life with chronic illness. #WEGOHealthChat |

| Alan Brewington @abrewi3010 The trouble I have with this is I’m not sure what or how I need help. Help? is a hard question to design. #WegoHealthChat |
| Social Health Network @socialhealthnet Q2 Between day to day life, advocacy projects, time for yourself and more - how do you prioritize your time? #WEGOHealthChat |
| Social Health Network @socialhealthnet @LightningDuck Hey Jay, use the #WEGOHealthChat hashtag to join the conversation :) |
| 𝐓𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐊𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐨𝐬 @TiffanyKairos @bennessb @wegohealth Absolutely Brianne! #WEGOHealthChat 💜♥ |
| Social Health Network @socialhealthnet RT @bennessb: @TiffanyKairos @wegohealth Mental health should be at the center of every conversation about managing life with chronic illness. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Kayla Nelson @lifeoflesion @wegohealth A1: Yes! It's so easy to get sucked into the trap of busy where I neglect the extra important things like the basics of self-care, time w/ loved ones, etc. Sometimes, health demands total attention and then there's the cycle of trying to get caught up w/ the rest #WEGOHealthChat |
| sick lately, words bad (check 📌 for discord info) @bennessb A2: I'm slowly learning that some tasks (like interviewing people for my podcast) *give* me energy, while some tasks (like editing the transcripts) *drain* my energy. So I try to prioritize different kinds of tasks based on the kind of energy I have that day. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Alan Brewington @abrewi3010 A2 lately the shinnest or most thing on fire seems to get my attention #WEGOHealthChat |
| Mary P. Pettigrew @pettigrew66 @TiffanyKairos @wegohealth Yes!!! Anxiety is my bugger. I recently started going back into therapy which has really helped! #WEGOHEALTHCHAT |
| 𝐓𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐊𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐨𝐬 @TiffanyKairos @wegohealth A2. I like to make a schedule and do my best to stick to it. I keep a planner even my phone calendar to keep track of my day to ensure that I don’t overload my day. #WEGOHealthChat 💜♥ |
| Mary P. Pettigrew @pettigrew66 A2: I’m usually organized if there’s a specific project or appointment with a specific time scheduled (like this chat), otherwise time management is a challenge for me! #WegoHealthChat |
| Mary P. Pettigrew @pettigrew66 RT @lifeoflesion: @wegohealth A1: @wegohealth A1: Yes! It's so easy to get sucked into the trap of busy where I neglect the extra important things like the basics of self-care, time w/ loved ones, etc. Sometimes, health demands total attention and then there's the cycle of trying to get caught up w/ the rest #WEGOHealthChat |
| AnCan Foundation @ancan501c3 #WEGOHealthChat A2. Those who need immediate help with navigation/support take priority. I check my e-mail each morning when I start for those needs. |
| Maya Northen Augelli @mayanorthen Yep! I actually have started using a written planner again & will only set a certain number of "musts" to try to eliminate overwhlem. I've also gotten better at saying no, which is no easy task for me. But I'm working on boundaries. #wegohealthchat |
 | Cathy Chester @CathyChes Joining late so hello from cold, rainy NJ! #WEGOHealthChat |
| Angels Of Epilepsy, Inc.© @AOEpilepsy @wegohealth A2.) I have a weekly schedule and I do it on every Sunday evening. Especially when I know the dates of things in advance. Seeing and knowing that helps me to prioritize my time. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski @lifeoflesion @wegohealth The “getting caught up” is my bane right now ✨ #WEGOHealthChat |
| Angels Of Epilepsy, Inc.© @AOEpilepsy RT @wegohealth: Q2 Between day to day life, advocacy projects, time for yourself and more - how do you prioritize your time? #WEGOHealthChat |
| Maya Northen Augelli @mayanorthen A2: I'm a morning person, so I also set aside time before work for exercise (if I'm up for it) and journaling. That almost guarantees I get me time in each day, even if just a little bit. #wegohealthchat |
| 𝐓𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐊𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐨𝐬 @TiffanyKairos @mayanorthen Very nice Maya! 😉✌🏼A huge help I’m sure! #WEGOHealthChat 💜♥ |
 | Marni Cartelli @Purrfectly_Rare Q1.#WEGOHealthChat Oye Yes! Bc I havent paid enough attention 2 the demands of my condition I wound up in more serious situations causing my whole life to be thrown out of balance. I need 2 learn 2 practice more self-care & listen 2 my body more |
 | Sakinah Kaiser (She/Her) @themuslimhippie RT @wegohealth: Q1 Do you find yourself struggling with finding a balance between your life, family, condition, advocacy life and everything in between? #WEGOHealthChat |
| Sakinah Kaiser (She/Her) @themuslimhippie RT @TiffanyKairos: @wegohealth A1.

| Mary P. Pettigrew @pettigrew66 @wegohealth I think we all try to do it all, but we can’t & the guilt, stress & sheer exhaustion of it all sets us back. It takes time, but baby steps can make a world of difference! #Wegohealthchat |
| Cathy Chester @CathyChes I advocate for the multiple sclerosis community through writing, speaking & consulting. Empower, inspire & educate what MS is & isn't in a positive & compassionate way! #WEGOHealthChat |
| Mary P. Pettigrew @pettigrew66 #WEGOHealthChat https://t.co/cgWLhKomxt |
| sick lately, words bad (check 📌 for discord info) @bennessb @justagoodlife I've been thinking about doing a version of this for my personal email. I'm trying to think of a polite/professional way to say: Thanks for the email! I need a lot of naps, so it may take me up to a week to respond. Thanks for your understanding! #WEGOHealthChat |
| Social Health Network @socialhealthnet How do you decide what to take on and when? Let's move to Q3 and discuss more. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Mary P. Pettigrew @pettigrew66 RT @CathyChes: I advocate for the multiple sclerosis community through writing, speaking & consulting. Empower, inspire & educate what MS is & isn't in a positive & compassionate way! #WEGOHealthChat |

| Sakinah Kaiser (She/Her) @themuslimhippie RT @wegohealth: Q2 Between day to day life, advocacy projects, time for yourself and more - how do you prioritize your time? #WEGOHealthChat |
| Kayla Nelson @lifeoflesion @wegohealth A2: I try to limit the number of priority items I put on each day's to-do list. Otherwise, I would be staring down a list of 50 things and never getting anything done. Always trying to include the important/not urgent items as well as the important/urgent ones. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Social Health Network @socialhealthnet Q3 When faced with new advocacy opportunities, how do you decide which to say 'Yes' and which to say 'No' to? #WEGOHealthChat |
| Mary P. Pettigrew @pettigrew66 @CathyChes Hi sweetie pie!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️#wegohealthchat |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski @pettigrew66 @wegohealth The stress and guilt of exhaustion is the point I’m at right now✨ #WEGOHealthChat |
| AnCan Foundation @ancan501c3 #WEGOHealthChat A2 Exercise is key for me daily ... usually mid-afternoon. |
| Maya Northen Augelli @mayanorthen @justagoodlife The downside is by 8PM I'm ready for bed, so I don't get much done after work. So I try to get as much done early in the day as possible. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Mary P. Pettigrew @pettigrew66 @lisadbudzinski @wegohealth Yes! We really need to chat sometime! #WegoHealthChat |
 | Frank R. @SarcoidosisofLI @wegohealth 1. Oh yes. Unfortunately I have learned the hard way, after being downgraded to terminally ill, I had to slow down. But I realized that I needed to work smarter not harder. I have really cut down many things and concentrated on Sarcoidosis. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski @justagoodlife @pettigrew66 @wegohealth My new wrench is my hubby fracturing his upper right femur. #WEGOHealthChat Thank you for the hugs! Can never have too many hugs 🤗 |
| Cathy Chester @CathyChes Lately anxiety is my enemy to be productive as my MS behaves badly. That's how I'm trying to keep balance in my lifel as I struggle with these challenges. Soldiering on! #WEGOHealthChat |
| sick lately, words bad (check 📌 for discord info) @bennessb Q3: At this point I really try to only commit to projects that I think will *give* me energy. Which is hard to predict! #WEGOHealthChat https://t.co/fn5tCRov35 |
 | Eileen Davidson - Rheumatoid Arthritis Advocate @chroniceileen @wegohealth I listen to my body and what motherhood has ahead. If my health says I need a break, I take it, most understand. If I feel too much mom guilt I put on the breaks and spend time with my son #WEGOHealthChat |
| Marni Cartelli @Purrfectly_Rare Q2.#WEGOHealthChat I am starting to learn 2 give priority 2 my health then 2 activities which bring me joy (including #advocacy initiatives) I used 2 try n do everything & I suffered. Now balance is knowing I'm giving back in a way I can & love |
| Maya Northen Augelli @mayanorthen A3: First, if it's a good fit for me & I'm a good fit for it. Second, I way time/money/energy needs, and if I think it makes sense given those. For instance, I'd love to go to tons of conferences, but time off from work & money make that tricky right now. #wegohealthchat |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski A3 We decide ahead of time which conferences will make the most impact for us and our community. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Cathy Chester @CathyChes @wegohealth Q3 I need to listen to my body when it tells me my workload is enough. After 33 years of MS that's an important lesson to learn. Sometimes you need to say no for your health #WEGOHealthChat |
| Eileen Davidson - Rheumatoid Arthritis Advocate @chroniceileen @wegohealth I always write out my daily tasks and judge based on fatigue and importance. I take little breaks in between to not burn out and cause a flare. #WEGOHealthChat |
| AnCan Foundation @ancan501c3 #WEGOHealthChat Q3 If AnCan has the chance to start a new virtual group, it rises to the top - ask @pettigrew66 ! Anyone who wants to start a virtual support group - live, A/V, for their condition, please contact us ar rd@ancan.org or visit our website https://t.co/meUSJjSG7K |
| Eileen Davidson - Rheumatoid Arthritis Advocate @chroniceileen RT @wegohealth: Retweet if you struggle to ask for help 🙋 #WEGOHealthChat |
| Mary P. Pettigrew @pettigrew66 Question: how much anxiety, guilt or stress what you’re doing (or not doing) is completely self inflicted? Also, ask yourself why - & is it worth it? Something interesting to ponder... I’ve been doing this lately & it has helped me re-prioritize things #WEGOHealthChat |
| Alan Brewington @abrewi3010 A3 lately I’ve been saying no to all advocacy opportunities. I need to be a patient, my mental and physical health won’t allow anymore #WEGOHealthChat |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski @justagoodlife @pettigrew66 @wegohealth He fell in the kitchen. He’s been on crutches for 20+ year’s & somehow they went out from under him. Emergency surgery for a rod & screws. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Eileen Davidson - Rheumatoid Arthritis Advocate @chroniceileen @wegohealth I find I most struggle with my personal life than anything. My advocacy life gives me so much joy, hope and productivity it can be hard to not get too involved in it #WEGOHealthChat |
 | FUMSnow @FUMSnow @wegohealth A3 - I need space in my calendar, my life and my energy before I can say yes to anything. Often, it is scheduled out too far to predict my energy level. I make my best guess based on other things going on in my life and business at that time. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Eileen Davidson - Rheumatoid Arthritis Advocate @chroniceileen RT @wegohealth: Balance is key to everything we do in life. FINDING that balance is most important for anyone, yet especially important for those with chronic illness and for those who spend passionate time and purpose as a patient advocate. #WEGOHealthChat |

| Eileen Davidson - Rheumatoid Arthritis Advocate @chroniceileen RT @wegohealth: Mary (@pettigrew66) is a #MultipleSclerosis Patient Leader and the founder of @mspals. She's definitely a force to be reckoned with in the MS community. #WEGOHealthChat If you'd like to learn more about Mary, check out her site & follow her channels: https://t.co/Hc5jaNghYs |
| Marni Cartelli @Purrfectly_Rare Q3. #WEGOHealthChat I look 1st at who/what is involved. There are many wolves in sheep skins & as #advocates all we have is our reputation. Once trust in us is lost...thats it. I am careful who am willing to put my name next to. I'd rather miss an opportunity than get hurt |
| Social Health Network @socialhealthnet Response cont- #WEGOHealthChat |
| Frank R. @SarcoidosisofLI @wegohealth A2. For me as much as I want to advocate I have started to put my family first. Then I try to find a definite set times for me to advocate for Sarcoidosis. I want to help as many people as possible but I can't help anyone if I don't help myself. #WEGOHealthChat |
| sick lately, words bad (check 📌 for discord info) @bennessb @FUMSnow @wegohealth Calendar space is so important! Even if I have just small commitments for many days in a row, I start anxiously looking at my calendar wondering when I'll have time to rest. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Social Health Network @socialhealthnet RT @chroniceileen: @wegohealth I listen to my body and what motherhood has ahead. If my health says I need a break, I take it, most understand. If I feel too much mom guilt I put on the breaks and spend time with my son #WEGOHealthChat |
| Social Health Network @socialhealthnet RT @chroniceileen: @wegohealth I always write out my daily tasks and judge based on fatigue and importance. I take little breaks in between to not burn out and cause a flare. #WEGOHealthChat |
| 𝐓𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐊𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐨𝐬 @TiffanyKairos @wegohealth A3. Provided that it’s an opportunity that I enjoy and one that could/would benefit others greatly, I would have a look at my schedule to see if it was an opportunity that I could participate in. #WEGOHealthChat 💜♥ |
| Maya Northen Augelli @mayanorthen This! I'm so often my own worst enemy in terms of pushing myself too hard, not setting boundaries, etc. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Eileen Davidson - Rheumatoid Arthritis Advocate @chroniceileen @wegohealth I am also unable to say no to @wegohealth because I am currently sitting at the pool in my bathing suit between sauna sessions to answer these questions. I've learned to multitask very well! #WEGOHealthChat |
| Social Health Network @socialhealthnet There have been some great points around saying yes and saying no. But we'd love to unpack that 'no' a bit more. Let's move on to Q4. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Angels Of Epilepsy, Inc.© @AOEpilepsy @wegohealth A3.) I’ve learned that sometimes I have say NO especially concerning my health and if certain dates are too close to another event. Because I must take a break. Also, if the advocacy opportunity is not in the health and awareness community, may not participate. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Social Health Network @socialhealthnet Ah, what a valid point! Are you putting the stress on yourself? Hmm.... #WEGOHealthChat |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski @justagoodlife @pettigrew66 @wegohealth We can use them ✨ #WEGOHealthChat https://t.co/M1gyfCosI7 |
| Mary P. Pettigrew @pettigrew66 A3: This continues to be a “work in progress” for me, especially if projects involve people I know. BUT, I think it’s important to evaluate yourself first - how it can affect your time/energy & if you’re drawn to it or not. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Social Health Network @socialhealthnet RT @chroniceileen: @wegohealth I find I most struggle with my personal life than anything. My advocacy life gives me so much joy, hope and productivity it can be hard to not get too involved in it #WEGOHealthChat |
| Social Health Network @socialhealthnet Q4 When do you believe you should say NO to an opportunity? If you were talking to a new Patient Leader, what advice would you give them about saying no? #WEGOHealthChat |
| AnCan Foundation @ancan501c3 #WEGOHealthChat Interesting that no one to date has even mentioned COMPENSATION ... thoughts???? |
| Social Health Network @socialhealthnet RT @SarcoidosisofLI: @wegohealth A2. For me as much as I want to advocate I have started to put my family first. Then I try to find a definite set times for me to advocate for Sarcoidosis. I want to help as many people as possible but I can't help anyone if I don't help myself. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Eileen Davidson - Rheumatoid Arthritis Advocate @chroniceileen @wegohealth It's ok to say no if you think your work should be paid for! #WEGOHealthChat |
| Angels Of Epilepsy, Inc.© @AOEpilepsy RT @wegohealth: Q3 When faced with new advocacy opportunities, how do you decide which to say 'Yes' and which to say 'No' to? #WEGOHealthChat |

| Social Health Network @socialhealthnet We are grateful for everyone who said YES to this #WEGOHealthChat😂 Supporting and connecting with other #PatientLeaders counts as self-care yeah? |
| Cathy Chester @CathyChes I think all Patient Leaders deserve to be paid. Just like a plumber we are experienced, knowledgeable and deserving of compensation. #WEGOHealthChat |
| sick lately, words bad (check 📌 for discord info) @bennessb A4: Protect your energy. Make sure that you feel satisfied and compensated for your work. If you work yourself into a flare then obviously your health will suffer, but so will your advocacy. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Angels Of Epilepsy, Inc.© @AOEpilepsy @wegohealth A4.) To a new #PatientLeader, if it’s not related to the health field or that particular leadership that you serve, you might have to say NO. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Maya Northen Augelli @mayanorthen Q4: If if it's too taxing on their health in any way, if it doesn't fit with their overall mission/what they want to do as an advocate, if it doesn't feel right in any way, to name a few. #wegohealthchat |
| Julie Croner @justagoodlife RT @AOEpilepsy: @wegohealth A4.) To a new #PatientLeader, if it’s not related to the health field or that particular leadership that you serve, you might have to say NO. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Angels Of Epilepsy, Inc.© @AOEpilepsy RT @wegohealth: Q4 When do you believe you should say NO to an opportunity? If you were talking to a new Patient Leader, what advice would you give them about saying no? #WEGOHealthChat |
| Marni Cartelli @Purrfectly_Rare Q4.#WEGOHealthChat When you know you cant fully commit to a project It's better to say no than give less than your all, especially in #raredisease where the project may be some1's everything Be honest if you dont have the time 2 commit. Ppl appreciate honesty |

| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski A4 Say no if it will put you in debt from travel, hotel stay & food. Say no if conferences are too close together time wise. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Mary P. Pettigrew @pettigrew66 @lifeoflesion @wegohealth OMG! That’s been my whole life! Lol! I’m working on this though. Except for my monthly calendar, I try to keep it day to day. For instance, my “to do” list for today says: 1) shower 2) #WEGOHealthChat 3) call mom 🤣😂🤣😂 |
| Alan Brewington @abrewi3010 A4 when you are unhappy or concerned about your current quality of life. Advocacy isn’t about having the largest following, it’s about my #qol #WEGOHealthChat |
 | Heather Von St James @HeatherVSJ @wegohealth A4.. if an opportunity doesn’t feel right, or align with your convictions it’s ok to say no. You don’t need to jump on everything.. stay true to yourself. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Frank R. @SarcoidosisofLI @wegohealth A3. I decide what will help the most with the least hurt to my own health. I have no choice. I am at a crossroads in my life that I need to be careful with my health and how can I make the biggest difference in my advocacy. I have tried new local ideas. #WEGOHealthChat |
| AnCan Foundation @ancan501c3 #WEGOHealthChat Q4 ..... OK to say no for me when I think I am being taken for granted! |
| 𝐓𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐊𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐨𝐬 @TiffanyKairos @wegohealth A4. If it conflicts with your health. It’s OKAY to say “NO”. You’re heart is beautiful for wanting to help, but remember that you can’t help if you’re not healthy. #WEGOHealthChat 💜♥ |
| Social Health Network @socialhealthnet Love this! #WEGOHealthChat |
| Maya Northen Augelli @mayanorthen RT @wegohealth: Love this! #WEGOHealthChat |
| Alan Brewington @abrewi3010 A4 saying no isn’t a negative or reflection on me. In fact, I would argue saying no means I’m more engaged in me than saying yes. Saying yes is easy, we all want to say yes to please others #WEGOHealthChat |
| Frank R. @SarcoidosisofLI @wegohealth A4. When the opportunity is not really in your mission it may be best to say No. Also I have always been if it doesn't help the patients who you are advocating for that might be something you may have to rethink. #WEGOHealthChat |
| 𝐓𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐊𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐨𝐬 @TiffanyKairos @wegohealth A4. To New Patient Leaders: If you feel the need to say “NO”, if you feel that tugging, due to personal health concerns etc. don’t push it. Remember. You want to give your best. You have a beautiful heart. It’s okay to rest and get yourself back in tip top shape. #WEGOHealthChat |
 | Heather 🇺🇸 @ZHeatherChamp Oh man! Missing the #WEGOHealthChat ! I’ll try to catch up later! #RareDisease |
| Social Health Network @socialhealthnet Q5 Knowing that your health should always be #1, how do you handle canceling or modifying plans if you're unable to rise to the occasion? #WEGOHealthChat |
| 𝐓𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐊𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐨𝐬 @TiffanyKairos 💜💜💜 |
| Mary P. Pettigrew @pettigrew66 A4: It’s important I ask questions & evaluate how much of myself I’ll need to give & if it’s worth it or if I’m capable. If I’m not capable & still say yes, I’m only setting myself up for feelings of failure, guilt & pain. #WEGOHEALTHCHAT |
| Mary P. Pettigrew @pettigrew66 #WEGOHealthChat https://t.co/uK3oWPKYl8 |
| Social Health Network @socialhealthnet We all know too well that our health can interfere with even the most well laid plans. Let's head to Q5 to talk about keeping (and breaking) commitments. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Lisa Davis Budzinski @lisadbudzinski Sorry guys, time for me to duck out. Everyone’s excited a great week no matter where you are✨ #WEGOHealthChat |
| Mary P. Pettigrew @pettigrew66 I ran out of room on my last answer, but YES... compensation is to be highly considered as important especially if a project involves YOUR talent, work & if it will be time consuming.#WEGOHealthchat |
| Maya Northen Augelli @mayanorthen A5: With honesty, and as much notice as possible (admittedly, advance notice isn't always possible, but I try). #wegohealthchat |
| AnCan Foundation @ancan501c3 #WEGOHealthChat I think of a note my mother had beside her bed framed in a picture of a guide - "the gentle art of saying 'NO'" |
| sick lately, words bad (check 📌 for discord info) @bennessb A5: I'm terrible at recognizing when I need to cancel plans for health reasons. 😟 I slept through an interview last month and felt ABSOLUTELY TERRIBLE. But being upfront about health stuff before this happens creates a context for other people to empathize. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Social Health Network @socialhealthnet We may all need to follow Rick's mother's actions... #WEGOHealthChat |
 | Joanna @castlesburning RT @bennessb: @TiffanyKairos @wegohealth Mental health should be at the center of every conversation about managing life with chronic illness. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Heather Von St James @HeatherVSJ @wegohealth A5 My health is always the main focus. If I have a big event, or conference, I make sure to build in rest time. I make no excuses for putting my well being first and people actually understand and respect it. Evenin everyday life,it’s the same. Rest is vital. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Frank R. @SarcoidosisofLI @wegohealth A5. I am true and upfront with anyone who wants my time. I tell them I can only help if I am physically able to and that I will only say yes if I know I can do it. Most orgs. know that I will be straightforward with them beforehand. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Mary P. Pettigrew @pettigrew66 A5: This is one area in which I’m happily making some improvement. The more I started getting saying “no” or canceling plans without the anxiety of trying to “people please” or explain myself, it’s been much easier. #WEGOHealthchat |
| Mary P. Pettigrew @pettigrew66 A5: Mom says I’m “predictably unpredictable “ & I’ve accepted that because it’s quite true! #WEGOHealthchat |
| Kayla Nelson @lifeoflesion @wegohealth A5: The toughest part for me is how to handle not beating myself up about it. I know I wouldn't respond that way to a friend or fellow patient leader...but it's tough to not judge myself even for something out of my control. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Cathy Chester @CathyChes A4 I say no to opportunities that are not aligned with my mission of patient advocacy. I stay honest and true for my readers and myself. I want to be a voice they can trust and come to when they need empowerment, inspiration, education or a shoulder to cry on. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Mary P. Pettigrew @pettigrew66 #WEGOHealthChat https://t.co/RhQ5xMD6ro |
| Social Health Network @socialhealthnet Unplugging and disconnecting can be a great way to walk away and let you focus on yourself. Moving to Q6 let's focus in on finding that balance. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Mary P. Pettigrew @pettigrew66 RT @abrewi3010: A4 saying no isn’t a negative or reflection on me. In fact, I would argue saying no means I’m more engaged in me than saying yes. Saying yes is easy, we all want to say yes to please others #WEGOHealthChat |
| Angels Of Epilepsy, Inc.© @AOEpilepsy @wegohealth A5.) I’ve learned to just tell them! If I’ve had a severe episode and know that I must rest, I have to cancel and speak with them about rescheduling if possible... #WEGOHealthChat |
| sick lately, words bad (check 📌 for discord info) @bennessb @lifeoflesion @wegohealth I really feel this! I used to be very reliable with a very busy schedule, and it is still hard for me to accept that I'm just not that person anymore. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Angels Of Epilepsy, Inc.© @AOEpilepsy RT @wegohealth: Q5 Knowing that your health should always be #1, how do you handle canceling or modifying plans if you're unable to rise to the occasion? #WEGOHealthChat |
| Social Health Network @socialhealthnet Q6 How do you make sure that you take time for yourself? Even when you've committed to a project or fulfilling a service. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Maya Northen Augelli @mayanorthen @lifeoflesion @wegohealth Same. I'm getting better at it, but it's still not easy. #WEGOHealthChat |
 | Jeffrey Roberts, MS BSc @IBSpatient #WEGOHealthChat Oops... I'm arriving a little late for this month's chat. Hi everyone. |
| Social Health Network @socialhealthnet Q6 additional thoughts - How do you ensure you're taking breaks, time off or saying no when you need to? How can you be mindful for yourself, yet committed to those efforts of which you've given yourself? #WEGOHealthChat |
| Social Health Network @socialhealthnet RT @lifeoflesion: @wegohealth A5: @wegohealth A5: The toughest part for me is how to handle not beating myself up about it.

| AnCan Foundation @ancan501c3 @wegohealth #WEGOHealthChat .... aka EXERCISING!! |
| 𝐓𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐊𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐨𝐬 @TiffanyKairos A5. No, it’s never ideal to have to resort to cancel or modify due to health concerns but should it be a factor, it’s important to address this to straight away in order to work out a plan to reschedule or modification. #WEGOHealthChat 💜♥ |
| Mary P. Pettigrew @pettigrew66 BTW, I’m thrilled so many people are participating today! I’m bouncing in between Q&A (can’t balance, LOL!🤣😂🤣), so I’ll come back into the hashtag feed after the chat to read & follow up with more of you guys! #WEGOHealthChat |
| Cathy Chester @CathyChes I also say no if I have no more spoons left. Grr! #wegohealthchat |
| Frank R. @SarcoidosisofLI @wegohealth A6. Actually I have to make sure my family helps me out with this. They remind me all the time. My long term memory is 23% and short is 15% so they help and me actually writing me time in my schedule beforehand and stick to it. #WEGOHealthChat |
| Mary P. Pettigrew @pettigrew66 A6: Sometimes I have to actually “schedule” this. Otherwise, it’s sporadic... #WEGOHealthchat |
| Maya Northen Augelli @mayanorthen A6: I set time 'off" in advance, and let people know. I utilize out of office messages on email with when I'll be back/checking, & let people know I'll be offline/out of pocket. I've gotten much better at not breaking those boundaries and setting time for myself. #wegohealthchat |
| sick lately, words bad (check 📌 for discord info) @bennessb A6: I've started trying to really tune in when my body wants rest. If the back of my mind is telling me to lie down or take a bath then I DO IT. My work suffers if I don't rest when I need to, and I'm much more productive when I do this. But it's easy to forget! #WEGOHealthChat |
| Jeffrey Roberts, MS BSc @IBSpatient #WEGOHealthChat Q6. I literally unplug and walk away from the computer/phone/tablet, etc... I do something completely different. I also try and do some exercise which is really important. |
| Social Health Network @socialhealthnet Thank you SO much for spending the last hour with us. You've shown us how important finding balance truly is. Take the last few moments to add any additional / closing thoughts you'd like to leave us with! #WEGOHealthChat |
| Mary P. Pettigrew @pettigrew66 This is my sweet reminder telling me when it’s time to take a break! #WEGOHealthChat ❤️💕❤️ https://t.co/LYwTQrUFxb |
| Cathy Chester @CathyChes I've canceled many times in my personal life due to MS & comorbidities. My professional life I rarely cancel #wegohealthchat |
| Alan Brewington @abrewi3010 A6 I’m so tired and run down I started crying on the way home yesterday bc I saw a military plane that reminded me of dad. I ate dinner and went to bed. With work, patient, etc. real me time doesn’t exist #WEGOHealthChat |
| Sakinah Kaiser (She/Her) @themuslimhippie RT @wegohealth: “Balance is the key to everything. What we do, think, say, eat, feel…they are all require awareness – and through awareness, we can grow. ~ Koi Fresco #WEGOHealthChat |

| 𝐓𝐢𝐟𝐟𝐚𝐧𝐲 𝐊𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐨𝐬 @TiffanyKairos @wegohealth A6. It’s a matter of prioritization. Monitor the length of time your are working and fit in blocks of time for breaks and periods of rest and time off. Saying “NO” is not negligent or disrespectful, it says you are caring of your health. #WEGOHealthChat 💜♥ |
| Mary P. Pettigrew @pettigrew66 @justagoodlife I love it! There’s so much more we all can add or contribute! Worthy of a video discussion, possibly?!? Hmmmm! My fingers are a mess today! Can’t type like usual. Lol! 🤪#WEGOHealthchat |

| Jeffrey Roberts, MS BSc @IBSpatient #WEGOHealthChat A5) I really hate disappointing myself, but if I have to cancel it's usually at the last moment. Not fair to anyone else. Not fair to me either. I try to rise to the occasion and I usually do, but reality has a way of settling in. |

| Mary P. Pettigrew @pettigrew66 @IBSpatient I do last minute cancellations too... Sometimes I can’t tell if I’ll resurface or not, so I put off saying no until its last minute. Sigh...#WEGOHealthchat |

| Angels Of Epilepsy, Inc.© @AOEpilepsy @wegohealth A6.) Even when I do travel or have committed to a project, I still take time to relax and/or meditate. It does help me with my seizure activity and other health issues. #WEGOHealthChat |

| Mary P. Pettigrew @pettigrew66 @TiffanyKairos @wegohealth Ya know, I really need to get my classical music back into play... literally. I haven’t played my piano in a very long time & I think I need it! You’ve inspired me, thx💕! 🎵🎶🎵#WEGOHealthchat |
| Angels Of Epilepsy, Inc.© @AOEpilepsy @wegohealth A6.) Additional thoughts - I agree completely with @TiffanyKairos It’s okay to say NO’. We must always remember that our health is very important and we MUST think about that first! #WEGOHealthChat |
