    Interview with @tajmakotoric: A Journey of Resilience and Health Awareness

    I’m beyond excited to introduce you to @tajmakotoric, an incredible woman who shared her powerful journey with me! Tajma isn’t just a hard-working CEO and mother—she’s also a fighter navigating life with three autoimmune diseases. She’s done everything she can to stay on top of her health, making her story one of resilience, strength, and deep self-awareness.

    Our conversation took us through some raw and real moments in Tajma’s life. At first, her health issues felt like a mystery—she didn’t know why her body felt so drained, why she couldn’t keep up with her busy life as she once could. But Tajma wasn’t about to settle for vague answers. She took control, pushing herself to find out what was going on. Her persistence led her to the hard truth of being diagnosed with not just one but three autoimmune diseases.

    The reality of living with autoimmune diseases is something most people can’t imagine, and Tajma opened up about how this impacts her daily life. Balancing work, motherhood, and her health is a delicate act. She’s had to make changes, prioritize self-care, and tune in to her body’s needs in a way that most of us rarely think about. Despite it all, she brings a message of hope and awareness. Her journey encourages us to get curious about our health, ask questions, and prioritize our well-being.

    Tajma’s story reminds us that taking control of our health isn’t just a one-time choice—it’s a lifelong commitment. This interview is packed with insights into her journey and tips for anyone managing their health in challenging circumstances. I’m so grateful she shared her story with me, and I hope it inspires you as much as it inspired me.

    Let’s all take a moment to share Tajma’s message far and wide because health awareness is for everyone. Her journey is a testament to the strength of being proactive, especially when faced with the unknown.
