In this episode, Pua sits down with Leslie Wingrowich, a former trauma and ICU nurse whose life was forever changed when she was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. Told she would never walk again, Leslie rejected the prognosis and embarked on a relentless journey of self-healing, beginning with diet changes and later uncovering deeper connections between parasites, stress, trauma, and MS.
Leslie opens up about the resilience it took to raise two small children while navigating paralysis, how her medical background shaped her advocacy, and why she believes in the body’s innate ability to heal when given the right tools. She also shares the emotional and spiritual layers of recovery, including suppressed childhood trauma, faith, and the importance of fighting for one’s health.
This conversation highlights not just Leslie’s remarkable recovery, but also her mission to simplify the overwhelming amount of information into accessible resources for others living with MS. From her bestselling book Live Like You’re Not Scared to her step-by-step online course, Leslie is offering hope, practical guidance, and a roadmap for anyone facing what feels like an impossible diagnosis.
