The heart behind Advokit.
For over a decade, I lived in the shadow of a mystery.
While in grad school, just as the job hunt was heating up, my body started breaking down. A slow progression of symptoms began to hijack my life — turning simple errands into hurdles and forcing aside dreams and ambition in the face of uncertainty.
Year after year, life got harder. I remained diligent in my search for answers.
By 2025, I hit a point of disability and desperation that led me to take leave from my career and throw every ounce of energy I had left into figuring this mystery out. I quite literally begged for the MRI that would finally unlock the help I needed.
Turning pain into purpose.
An important part of my healing process has been a deep reflection on what worked and what didn't as I tried to navigate appointments on my own.
If there's one thing I learned from my own journey to diagnosis, it's that you cannot take a passive role in your own healthcare — and you really must advocate for yourself.
I don't want any other patient to walk away from an appointment feeling unheard, overwhelmed, or lost. So I created Advokit to be the coach and teammate I wish I had in my pocket for the hardest parts of my journey.
But what does advocacy actually look like?
For me, it was learning a skillset.
- Going to appointments prepared with what to say and what to ask for.
- Putting concrete words to what you're experiencing and knowing your health history.
- Walking away knowing how to take the next step.
- Maximizing every minute of your short appointment time to go deeper and farther with your doctor.
