Bringing Hope, driven by science. Isabelle Amigues, MD, is a physician scientist with a speciality in rheumatology. She has trained both in Paris, France as well as Columbia University, in New York City. At age 40, in the midst of an existential crisis, she was diagnosed with stage IV metastatic breast cancer. A timely meeting with a non-traditionally trained practitioner taught her a different approach to disease. She experienced the power of meditation, visualization, energy healing and love. Her journey through cancer inspired her to learn more about these alternative approaches, and now that she has studied many of them she has integrated them into her own practice of medicine. Dr. Amigues is the author of multiple book chapters and scientific articles in rheumatology. She is the founder and CEO of UnabridgedMD.

Join holistic rheumatologist Dr. Isabelle Amigue and "Sparking Wholeness" host Erin Carey as they explore the intersection of the nervous system, trauma, and autoimmune remission. Erin shares her incredible story of moving beyond a "manic depressive" label given 26 years ago to living a life of stability and health.
What you’ll learn in this video:
✔️The Power of Labels: Why we crave them for insurance and validation, but why they aren't your destiny.
✔️Nervous System Regulation: How "freeze" and "flight" modes trigger inflammation and autoimmunity.
✔️ The Science of Hope: Why visualization, breathing, and the "placebo effect" are scientifically backed tools for recovery.
✔️ Remission vs. No Evidence of Disease: Reframing the way we look at "chronic" conditions.
✔️ Self-Compassion as Medicine: Moving from "push-through culture" to partnering with your body.
