What if the hardest part of migraine isn’t the pain—but being unseen? Explore disability, advocacy, and the power of shared voices.
Sometimes what hurts most isn’t the migraine itself—it’s living in a world that doesn’t understand it and isn’t built to support it. While visible disabilities often receive accommodations, migraine remains largely invisible—leaving millions to navigate environments that dismiss, overlook, or even worsen their pain.
This episode of The Migraine Heroes Podcast explores the urgent need for advocacy in migraine care, blending personal storytelling with practical solutions. Hosted by Diane Ducarme, who has guided hundreds of women in reshaping their healing journeys, we look at how resilience and community can rewrite the narrative of living with this invisible disability.
You’ll discover:
💡 Why the modern world is increasingly hostile to people with invisible disabilities like migraine
💡 The small but powerful environmental shifts that can ease daily life for migraine warriors
💡 A moving story of resilience—Diane’s cousin Sebastien Ducarme—and how it reshaped her own view of advocacy and healing
💡 How standing together can create a culture of compassion and practical change
Migraine isn’t just pain—it’s also isolation, misunderstanding, and the exhaustion of hiding an invisible condition. But we don’t have to fight alone. By sharing stories, reimagining our environments, and building tools that serve us, we begin to change what’s possible—not just for individuals, but for the migraine community as a whole.
This episode is both a call for advocacy and a reminder: you are not alone. Together, we can create spaces where healing is honored, not hidden.
