The Love Your Journey Podcast

Navigating Business While Honoring Chronic Illness or Pain

Tara Jo Kadlec Season 1 Episode 6

In this truth-telling episode, I’m opening up about what it really means to run a business while navigating chronic illness—and how you can do it in a way that’s rooted in self-honor, not self-sacrifice.

I share my personal journey through living with a concussion, Mast Cell Activation Syndrome, and Functional Neurological Disorder—and how I’ve continued to grow a business that supports not just my purpose, but also my body, my nervous system, and my healing.

This isn’t about pushing through. It’s about making space for the truth of who you are—and allowing your business to evolve with you. If you’ve ever felt the pressure to show up like someone else just to be “successful,” this episode is your reminder that your presence, your pacing, and your story are more than enough.

💡 Inside this episode, we explore:
🌿 How chronic illness has reshaped the way I lead and serve
🌿 Releasing pressure, timelines, and the productivity myths
🌿 Letting your business evolve alongside your healing
🌿 Building from a place of truth, slowness, and self-trust
🌿 Why honoring your body isn’t a detour—it’s the way forward
