Kris Krause Coaching I coach clients with autoimmune diseases and active aging adults, focusing on the transformative power of good nutrition and a healthy mindset

For a long time, I thought being strong meant pushing through. 💪

Push through the pain. Push through the fatigue. Keep going when my body was begging me to slow down.

Living with rheumatoid arthritis for 20 years has taught me a different kind of strength.

Sometimes strength is showing up for your workout. Sometimes it’s modifying the movement. Sometimes it’s canceling plans, taking a rest day, and listening to what your body actually needs.

Rest isn’t weakness. Modifying isn’t failure. And I don’t have to prove how strong I am by suffering. 🧡

I’m still strong. I’m just learning that I don’t have to fight my body every single day to prove it.

When Everything Feels Like A LOT

Ever have something tiny happen and suddenly you're ready to lose your mind?

The missing sock.

The email.

Someone chewing too loudly.

The coffee spilling.

And you're thinking, “WHY AM I THIS MAD?” 😂

Sometimes the little thing isn't the problem.

It's just the thing that landed on an already-full bucket.

Before judging yourself for your reaction, ask:

What has been building up?

Maybe your nervous system doesn't need you to “get it together.”

Maybe it needs a break.

Just a woman who looks perfectly healthy but has to calculate how much energy teaching classes will take… 🙃

Will I have enough energy to teach? Will my joints cooperate? Will I be completely wiped out afterward? And what do I need to move around on my schedule to make it all work?

Living with an autoimmune disease means constantly doing the mental math that nobody else sees.

I LOVE what I do. I love teaching, coaching, and showing up for my women. But loving what I do doesn’t mean my body always makes it easy.

That’s the thing about invisible illness. You see me showing up. You don’t always see what it costs me.

Anyone else doing the daily energy math? Tell me I’m not alone. 👇🧡

It’s Invisible Disease Week, and this is your reminder that you can’t always tell what someone is carrying just by looking at them.

You might see me smiling, teaching classes, traveling, working, and doing all the things I love. What you don’t always see is the fatigue, joint pain, swollen hands and feet, unpredictable flares, and the recovery time it takes to do those things.

Living with rheumatoid arthritis means learning to live with a body that doesn’t always cooperate. Some days are good. Some days are hard. And some days, I’m smiling on the outside while doing everything I can just to get through the day.

I share this because invisible illnesses are just that — invisible. We don’t always look sick. We don’t always talk about how we feel. And we shouldn’t have to prove our pain to anyone.

So this week, let’s give each other a little more grace. Believe people when they tell you they’re struggling. Remember that canceling plans, needing rest, or slowing down doesn’t mean someone is lazy or giving up.

You never know what someone is managing behind that smile.

To everyone living with an invisible illness, I see you. You’re not alone. 🧡

The Energy Crash Nobody Sees

You know that feeling when you have a good day and think:

“YES! I'm back!”

So naturally you do ALL THE THINGS.

And then…

Your body:
“Cute. See you tomorrow.” 😂

The hard part of autoimmune life isn't always knowing what you can do.

Sometimes it's learning when to stop while you're still feeling good.

You don't have to spend every ounce of energy just because it's available today.

You Don't Have to Exercise Like Everyone Else

Your workout doesn't have to look impressive to be effective.

Especially when you're living with an autoimmune condition.

Maybe today it's strength training.

Maybe it's walking.

Maybe it's mobility.

Maybe it's 20 minutes instead of 45.

Maybe it's a really good stretch and calling it a win.

Movement isn't punishment.

It's a conversation with your body.

And some days, we need to listen more than we push.

My body tried to cancel my plans AGAIN. 🙄 So what? I’m still living my life! 💪🔥

Living with an autoimmune disease means plans change, energy disappears, and sometimes your body has a completely different agenda than you do.

But here’s the thing… I’m not waiting for perfect health to enjoy my life.

Sometimes I push forward. Sometimes I pivot. Sometimes I rest and try again tomorrow.

That’s autoimmune life. We adapt, we adjust, and we keep finding ways to live our lives on OUR terms. 🧡

Who’s learning to roll with the punches, too? 👇

When people get offended because your autoimmune disease means you can’t always show up for them.

So if I cancel plans, need a rest day, move a little slower, or say no because my body has hit its limit…

I don’t owe anyone an explanation for taking care of myself.

I live in this body 24/7. I know my limits.

I’ve got enough to battle with my own immune system. I don’t need to fight you, too. 🤘🖤

Check Yourself Before Your Phone

Before you grab your phone tomorrow morning, take 60 seconds.

How does my body feel?

Am I tired?

Hungry?

Thirsty?

Tense?

What do I actually need today?

Because sometimes we wake up and immediately let 47 other people’s thoughts, opinions and notifications into our brain before we've even checked in with ourselves.

Start with you.

Then grab the phone. 😉

🎸 She was a flare girl… in an autoimmune world. 😂🤘

Some days I’m crushing my workouts, checking off my to-do list, and feeling like I can take on the world.

Other days, my joints hurt, my energy is gone, and getting dressed feels like an Olympic event.

That’s autoimmune life, baby! You never quite know which version of yourself is showing up.

But I’m still here. Still showing up. Still doing things my way.

And I’m not letting a chronic illness write my whole story. 🧡
