From Feeling Lost to Finding Hope: 3 Shifts That Can Change Everything
Sobre este podcast
Are you doing everything right - avoiding triggers, taking your medication - and still experiencing migraine episodes that steal your day? You're not alone, and you're not broken.
Deep dives into the science behind migraine, from food and hormones to sleep, stress, and the unexpected triggers few people talk about. Every topic holds a tension: is ginger a trigger or a remedy? Is stress the cause or the symptom? What does perimenopause actually change? There's rarely a simple answer, so each episode looks at the knowledge and science from different angles, East and West, and turns it into practical advice rooted in context.
Migraine Heroes started when Diane Ducarme began helping her sister, then friends, then increasingly more people living with migraine. That work became a method, now used by over 3,000 people, to identify your own unique patterns and find real solutions. This podcast is where that thinking happens out loud.
