In this powerful episode, I sit down with Patrycia Rzechowka—motivational speaker, stroke survivor, MS Canada Ambassador, and the subject of the MS documentary “MSed With the Wrong Girl.”

We talk about it ALL:

• Getting diagnosed with MS as a young woman

• Navigating pregnancy and motherhood with MS

• How she’s using her story to educate and inspire others

• Advocacy through the MS Bike and MS Walk

• What it’s like being featured in a documentary about life with MS

Patrycia is proof that you can live boldly and intentionally—even with a diagnosis that tries to say otherwise.

In this episode of Fearless with Mary, I sit down with Paige (@MSfighter101) for a brutally honest conversation about some of the hottest (and most controversial) topics in the MS community right now.

We tackle:

• The rising trend of parasite cleanses being promoted as a so-called “cure” for MS
• Why these parasite theories can be dangerous and misleading for people with multiple sclerosis
• The problem with toxic positivity in chronic illness spaces
• What real MS advocacy and support actually looks like

If you’ve been seeing endless content online about parasite cleanses, miracle cures, or dismissive positivity, this episode is for you. We cut through the noise with real talk, lived experience, and a whole lot of honesty.

This week on Fearless with Mary, we’re talking about something that impacts every woman — menopause.

And trust me, it’s more than hot flashes.

I’m joined by the incredible Jesse Schewchuk, aka Ms. Jesse Muse — a multi-award-winning TV producer, bestselling author, keynote speaker, and the powerhouse behind The Menopause Mission, a nonprofit changing the conversation around menopause through advocacy, education, and real community support.

Jesse is on a mission to bring menopause out of the shadows and into the spotlight. In this episode, we unpack:

Why menopause still feels like a taboo topic
The emotional and physical shifts women aren’t warned about
How workplaces can better support women going through menopause
What Jesse learned from producing Making the M-Word Mainstream, her TELUS Optik documentary series
Practical ways to advocate for yourself and others during this transition

Whether you’re in it, approaching it, or know someone who is — this episode is packed with truth, tools, and validation you won’t want to miss.
