Support, understanding, shared experiences.
So many of us with lipedema struggle alone with doctors and family who don't understand about lipedema, or even worse, don't believe us.
Our TRIBE Community creates a safe space to learn, to find what's right for you and your body. You can manage lipedema and live your best life.
You are not alone!
How often in your life have you needed help for having fat arms, hips, legs, about your body but don't know what to do?
What about times that you have been in so much pain... and not known where to go or who to turn to?
The gap between your current health journey and the best quality of life with lipedema cannot be filled by knowledge alone.
We created the Lipedema TRIBE Community so you can enrich your life, learn about these chronic conditions, and connect with others to offer and receive support.
Simply, we have your back!
We open up enrollment in our Lipedema TRIBE Community membership twice a year in order to ensure the best experience for our members. This will be the last time this year, 2022, for you to take advantage of this opportunity.
Are you ready to up your level of engagement, self-love, self-compassion for yourself? Are you ready to receive support and love from others who truly understand what you are going through - and can offer support, encouragement, and answers from their own personal experiences?
Whether you choose to be very active, or stay quietly in the background and just observe, we welcome you to come and find what you need.

"This disease is not for the faint hearted. It takes persistence to do the things we need to do to manage this condition. Sharing my story, offering help to others and having a place to ask questions can make a big difference in living with lipedema."

"I feel like I can take on the world and succeed instead of hiding indoors waiting for life to pass me by."

"The best part is knowing that I am not alone on this journey. Most of us, at some stage, have felt isolated and cut off from the lives we want to have. Being part of this group offers friendships, support, encouragement, and a sense of family."
