The MotherPod Promotes Multiple Sclerosis Awareness

The MotherPod is a podcast from the Wisconsin Women's Health Foundation, designed by moms, for moms, to create conversations focused on staying healthy through the journey of motherhood.

In recognition of Multiple Sclerosis Awareness Month, we featured Nicole Fulton, a long-time friend of the foundation and local business owner. We were so thankful to sit down with Nicole and learn more about her story of MS diagnosis and managing the chronic disease while juggling the needs of being a working mom.
