This episode is a return visit for Robbie Gillett, a talented poet who lives with MS. We talked about Robbie's initial struggles with his diagnosis and how it led him to writing poetry as a form of therapy and self-expression. With the support of his wife, who encouraged him to share his work, Robbie has used his poetry to raise awareness and provide hope to others.
Robbie talked about his upcoming projects including a show and book titled "I Don't Like Poetry," which challenges stereotypes and perceptions about poetry.
Robbie's message to newly diagnosed individuals is to reach out and connect with others in the MS community, emphasizing the support and understanding that can be found through shared experiences. His upcoming book release in September will further showcase his talent and dedication to raising awareness about MS and mental health.
