How to build your thyroid support team
EPISODE 8
YOUR THYROID SUPPORT TEAM
Dealing with chronic health issues can be quite lonely at times but I believe it’s important to find people, professional and personal that can help support you throughout your health journey.
In this episode, we cover the 4 key people (or categories of people) that it’s helpful to have in your corner
- Medical.
- Allied Health professionals.
- Experts.
- Personal.
You might also like to consider that you could be part of someone else’s thyroid support team too as you learn, experiment and talk about your own experiences.
I have put together a simple worksheet to help you identify who is in your support team – or you could even us it to design your dream support team! You can download it here.
