Hi there!

I’m Colleen Daniels, creator and host of "MSMS: The Many Stories of Multiple Sclerosis", a podcast launched in 2024 to support Australians living with Multiple Sclerosis (MS).

Diagnosed with MS in 1998, my mind instantly filled with questions and doubt - how could I, why would I have MS? ... and when the realisation hit - why did I have MS?

More than 25 years later, I’ve become a committed MS advocate, volunteer, fundraiser, author, organiser of and speaker at awareness events; radio, tv and podcast guest, leader of an MS support group, and podcast host - seems I'm on a mission!

My story tells the reasons for this renewed sense of purpose, it is a tale of survival and a man that brought his wife home despite all odds - and can be listened to in the first episode of the podcast HERE

Starting the podcast initially to share experiences of the HSCT procedure, it soon became evident that people's stories could answer many other questions surrounding MS - for people newly diagnosed, or anyone travelling through the MS journey, at any stage.

Some recent feedback:

... I’ve just started listening, and I love it! J, NSW

… those podcast (episodes) are absolute gold! T, QLD

… I just listened to two (episodes) and they were both brilliant ... C, NSW

... drawn to the conversations you're having on the MSMS: The Many Stories of Multiple Sclerosis Podcast, as they really resonated with me ... A, VIC

Community and connection are vital when living with MS.

Sharing our stories can help ease feelings of isolation and serve as a powerful reminder that no one is alone on this journey.

I pour my heart into this podcast and other MS projects because I believe everyone living with MS deserves to feel seen, heard, and supported.

If MSMS: The Many Stories of Multiple Sclerosis touches you in any way, I’d be deeply grateful for your support ... a little contribution—just the cost of a coffee—can help keep this podcast alive, reaching those who need it most.

Let's keep the conversation going and continue building MS community together,

💙 with gratitude for both the support and the coffee 💙

Colleen
