Kimberly Kaye joins the Life is a Ride podcast to discuss overcoming a deadly illness that she was diagnosed with over 20 years ago, and how she used that experience to find a way to help others struggling with their health. Kimberly and Chris also discuss the state of the American health care system, Covid and obesity, and how Americans can find ways to improve their health and well-being. Kimberly is a certified functional medicine health coach, functional nutritionist, and trainer who works primarily with people who have complex, multi-system inflammatory conditions. She fell into this work by accident while struggling to get correctly diagnosed and treated for Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, a genetic connective tissue disorder which effects every organ system in the body. After 20 years of misdiagnoses and medical gaslighting, Kimberly finally received the correct diagnosis in 2018, and decided to become one of the few EDS and Dysautonomia-literate practitioners in the American health care system. When she’s not working with patients or ruining BBQs by telling friends “you shouldn’t eat that,” Kimberly is a professional musician, patient advocate, and community organizer based out of New Orleans. She believes strongly that a combination of affordable patient education and direct mutual aid to lower income communities is the only way out of the current American health care crisis.

The song "Life is a Ride" was written by Paul Sanchez, Alex McMurray and Chris Joseph.
