Hey there! I’m so glad you’re here. 2024 has been a year of profound change and growth for me, and I want to invite you to take this journey with me. It’s been full of powerful moments—some that challenged me, others that opened my eyes to new truths about life, love, and what it means to be human.
On this episode of Reppin', I'm opening up about the lessons I've learned during this transformative year. I’ll dive into what truly matters—things like kindness, resilience, and the power of taking a step back to reflect on life’s ups and downs. I’m sharing the insights I’ve gained, the lessons I’m still uncovering, and the moments that have made an impact.
We’ll dive into tough but important topics, like freedom of speech and how it’s made me see the world in new ways. We’ll talk about the power of our actions, big or small, and how they ripple out to the world around us. Most of all, we’ll explore what it means to embrace vulnerability and face the hard truths that ultimately help us grow. If you’re looking for something deeper, more meaningful—something that challenges you to think about life, purpose, and connection, then listen in! Together, we’ll tackle the messy, beautiful truths of what it means to be human.
One thing I want to mention—some of the topics you'll hear include sensitive subjects like loss and suicide, so please take care of yourself. Listener discretion is advised.

If you were at young, in great shape, had a promising career and just found the person you wanted to spend the rest of your life with, and all of a sudden your body started to shut down. Doctors diagnosed with you an extremely rare disease, there was no cure and told you -you were dying, what would you do? Would you spend the time you had left with your family? Or would you spend that time looking for a cure and using yourself as a guinea pig? This is exactly the predicament my guest was in.
Today, we're diving into the incredible journey of Dr. David Fajenbaum, a true maverick in the world of medicine. From battling an ultra-rare disease to pioneering groundbreaking treatments, Dr. Fajenbaum's story is nothing short of awe-inspiring. He's earned the title of the 'Disease Hunter,' a relentless warrior in the pursuit of medical breakthroughs.
As a former football star turned med student, Dr. Fajenbaum faced down an unimaginable diagnosis with the determination of a true champion. His journey is a raw testament to the power of resilience and unyielding determination. Throughout the episode, you'll witness how this indomitable spirit defied every odd and emerged stronger than ever before.
He's a living example of pushing boundaries and making the impossible, possible. He shares how he found hope in the the darkest of times. And his groundbreaking work and book, "Chasing my Cure: A Doctor's Race to Turn Hope into Action," stand as a testament to his unwavering commitment to the cause.

She also co-owns 'My Saint, My Hero,' a gorgeous bracelet line, with her husband, actor John Stamos. The bracelets are exquisite (I own three!!) , handcrafted pieces, and their efforts support a variety of different charities—this is their motto: 'Changing the world through love, one blessing at a time.'
While Caitlin may seem to have a charmed life, she has faced her share of challenges. Despite the glamorous exterior, she's no stranger to being pigeonholed and trying to find her own voice in a competitive industry.

Witnessing her journey is a testament to breaking free from limitations and creating a better world for generations to come. 🌟🌍
Caitlin details her experiences in Hollywood and working with a variety of different humanitarian organizations.
