    Loved the interview! Her journey is very inspiring especially as another person diagnosed with MS at a young age (21). Hearing how she's navigated healthcare in very recent times brings me so much peace. I was diagnosed in Dec 2011 and it seemed there wasn't any info on the internet about how others lived with the disease. The bright positive attitude is so amazing! I've heard about these about these relationship visas for the second time, that's going to be another category for consideration.

      Hi Gaylan! It's such an unpredictable journey. Being diagnosed in our 20s can feel like a sentence but we try our best to stay strong and keep going. I'm happy this brought you peace. Online info which is empathetic to those reading it is increasing thank goodness and the Instagram MS community has been an incredible source of support for me. Stay safe and take care of yourself!

      Hi V, thank you so much! Things definitely got more difficult after MS but I'm trying to keep moving for as long as I can :)

    Again, I am very impressed with your interviews Cinnamon! Brittany is a truly wonderful human being and I wish her well in her journey. I really hope that the MS is not too debilitating for her. Brittany makes me feel hopeful and optimistic about pursuing living abroad. Volunteering is a great idea and I hope others will be able to explore this idea!

      Hi Jeannie, thank you so much! That's very kind of you. I am thankful that I haven't had a relapse or flare up in months. As a result, I'm not very restricted right now but I realise the risk is always there so I'm careful. I'm happy to hear that you are optimistic and I hope that you will find the opportunity that's right for you soon! All the best :)

    What a wonderful, smart, brave and adventurous young woman. Cinnamon, you captured a really good interview here. I wish for Brittney the best as she navigates through the rest of her life and dealings with MS. Thank you for sharing with us Brittney.

    My goodness. What an amazing soul this young woman has. She is so passionate about Camphill. She is passionate about travel and so giving, in her volunteering.
    What a terrific interview... full of joy and life despite the many challenges with MS. I have a friend who has had MS for several years now (definitely) but I do Brittany has an extra-special spirit to her.
    Absolutely fantastic Cinnamon! Extremely inspiring. xo

    Good morning Ms. Spice! I was scrolling and clicked so fast!
    This really caught my attention with having physical restrictions and currently volunteering.
    I was really interested in what Brittany had to say, parts of her experience made me think of my early plans to volunteer abroad.
    Brittany having the support and reassurance was really inspiring.
    I'm so glad I watched the video!
    Thank you.

      Hi Thelsuice, that's wonderful to hear that you pursued it! Volunteering is not always easy but it works so well when we all bring our different strengths to the table. I can't do everything I used to but I certainly try my best to make a contribution.

      @@britthetravellingms4227 Hello there! Yes I agree with you on doing what you can although it can be challenging.
      I'm not abroad yet but I'm volunteering with a language center in my area as I really enjoy the community of diverse cultures.
      I'm glad you responded, I have family in the Bahamas originally from Cat island but in Nassau now. I'm happy for you and stay safe!

    It would be cool to hear you talk about what you learned the most about the interview when it ends. I think this would be super helpful for everyone.

    • @DrivenSpice
      @DrivenSpice  Před 3 lety

      Thanks for the tip Jonathan! That's been on my mind, but honestly it takes soooo much time putting the interviews together that adding that edit in after watching it would make it take even longer for me to put the video out. I was thinking about maybe taking clips and doing something like that later, but I just haven't had time. But I'll work on it.
