As a child I found having psoriasis could be quite isolating. Except for my Dad, I didn't really come across anyone else who had it so there was nobody for me to talk to or share concerns with at school or among my friends. My experience with the disease was also very different from his. I had different forms of it and his used to get better in the summer, whereas mine was constantly there. In recent years there seems to be a rise in the number of people who have it. I must admit whenever I have a client with psoriasis I always feel an immediate connection with them as we have a shared experience of this awful disease. It gives me a greater understanding of what they are going through.

I decided to start my psoriasis membership club Project Pso, as I believe people really benefit from being part of a community. Not everyone can understand what we go through, so having a group to share experiences in can really make you feel connected with others. I have seen so many posts on social media where people ask questions on a wide range of topics from nightshades and lectins to topical products and supplements. So a membership club where people can find the information they need and learn fact from fiction seemed so logical. One to one consultations are always the best way to go when managing your skin, but for a lot of people the cost can be off-putting. Memberships are so much cheaper and you can cancel whenever you want to. Plus you can work through the content at your own pace, and I'm on hand every month to answer any questions.
