Morgan Greene is a chronic illness and holistic wellness blogger and content creator at Is Was Will Be blog. After being diagnosed with rare chronic illness Myasthenia Gravis (MG), Morgan started writing to process her experience — “serving as both therapy and accountability” for her, as she so aptly puts it. As her journey progressed, she found solace in putting into words what many of her fellow Spoonies were experiencing. What started as a hobby has turned into a passion, as Morgan continues to spread awareness about living with chronic illness and inspiring women to live their illest lives. As she details on her blog, “I challenge you not only to share the journey with me, but also to start one of your own. It is my hope that through my words, you will find the fuel to ignite your own personal revolution. That you will finally start living according to your own…happiness. There’s no easy button. It’s not going to happen tomorrow, next week, or even next month. But if you just start, one day you will be able to wake up to a life you made happen.”
