Chris Willard

Founder

Hi, I'm Chris Willard, I am a CIDP patient, chronic migraine sufferer, and the founder of The Advocate Voice, as well as a top-selling author, certified functional fitness coach, licensed functional nutritionist, and volunteer with the GBS/CIDP Foundation International, but I am most honored to be a husband and dad to four.

The response I received from my first book, Move to Improve, not only from the CIDP community but also from patients with many other illnesses, made me realize just how common the feeling of isolation, something I personally struggled with, is in the chronic and rare illness community (patients and loved ones alike).

It was this realization of just how underserved those who are affected by these illnesses are that led me to leverage my new-found social media presence to build a community with one passionate thought: no one affected by a chronic or rare illness should feel alone.

Together, we continue to thrive and truly are a place where knowledge, empowerment, and well-being converge.
