What Opting Into Your Life While Living with Chronic Illness Means with Brianna Greenspan

Published on: 31st January, 2022

Do you feel like you’re alone? Do you feel like you’re holding yourself back from being seen? Are you showing up in little ways but keeping yourself on the sidelines sort of speak while serving others? Our guest Brianna Greenspan, co-author of multiple books including one with the Miracle Morning series shares her story of removing the mask and choosing to entirely opt-in and show herself.  From birth, Brianna experienced the challenges of living in a world where nobody could tell her what was going on. She shares what being “different”  translates into while growing up with chronic illness and the life-saving lessons she learned along the way.  One of those lessons was uncovered while unpacking trauma and learning how to love herself.

With experience as a patient and working in the healthcare industry of research, she has a unique perspective and set of tools that help her thrive.  Brianna shares the experience of the first 20 years of her life of dealing with the label “different”. In addition, she shares her journey of unpacking trauma and learning how to love herself. 

By the end of this episode, you will feel encouraged and empowered by her story.

Nikita Williams

Welcome to Business with Chronic Illness — the podcast for women who are building big dreams with limited energy.
I’m Nikita Williams, and I know what it’s like to be living in pain, carrying a diagnosis (or several), and still wanting more — more purpose, more income, more alignment, more ease. After leaving behind a traditional path and navigating the emotional rollercoaster of chronic illness, I decided to rewrite the rules of success. And now? I help other women do the same.
Here, we have honest conversations about what it really takes to build a sustainable, profitable business when your health is unpredictable. No hustle culture. No toxic positivity. Just powerful stories, practical strategies, and mindset shifts that work — even on flare days.
You’ll hear from guests who get it, solo episodes from my heart to yours, and insights I’ve learned coaching dozens of women through launching and growing their dream businesses — on their terms.
Because business is personal. And when you build it that way, it not only becomes easier… it becomes life-giving.
💬 Tune in, take what you need, and know this: You Are Crafted To Thrive.
