Tori Foles was a former Division I volleyball player who—like all athletes—knew her own body. But when a mysterious cascade of symptoms hit her at the age of 23, she initially faced a doctor who disregarded and diminished how she was feeling. In this episode, she shares how she fought for a diagnosis, and struggled to regain the life she'd once had. Today, she's a mom of three, a business owner, and wife of Super Bowl MVP Nick Foles. Her conversation with Jess and Maureen is a powerful reminder that chronic illness doesn’t define you—and that self-advocacy is vital.
