I did a show mainly focused on anger and how that represents in the body. Talk about choices of reaction vs responding and play music that reflects anger and calm. There are no professionals in the industry talking on this show, I just reflect on it through my lenses.

Nat was diagnosed with AVM, arteriovenous malformation, epilepsy, and depression, anxiety, and dermatomyositis.

AVM is when the arteries going into the veins, they don't have capillaries. So the blood is going too fast into the veins. So it starts pooling and then it too much pressure. So it ruptures causing a big blood clot and that blood clot became the size of a baseball in a very short time.

We delve into her life needing to be humbled by the big part her brain played in what she could and couldn't do.
