Episode 110 - Innovative Solutions for Chronic Conditions: Exploring BeWell's Adaptive Clothing Line

Move It or Lose it - The Podcast

In this episode, I had the pleasure of chatting with Amanda Phillips, the director and creator of BeWell, a company dedicated to improving the lives of individuals with autoimmune diseases through thoughtfully designed apparel and products.
As you'll hear, Amanda's story began with her struggle to manage Crohn's disease during long car rides, leading her to devise a makeshift emergency toilet using an ice cream bucket. This experience sparked her creativity and led to the development of the IV hoodie, designed to provide warmth and easy access for infusion treatments. In our conversation, we also touch on the challenges of starting and running a business, especially in the niche market of adaptive clothing.

Amanda's commitment to the community is evident in her approach to product development, actively seeking feedback through a VIP Facebook group to ensure that the products meet the needs of her customers. She also highlighted upcoming products and the introduction of a patent-pending design aimed at providing even more versatility for medical access.
This episode not only sheds light on the unique challenges faced by those with autoimmune diseases but also highlights how innovation and entrepreneurship can lead to practical solutions that enhance daily living. Amanda's story is a testament to the power of personal experience in driving change and creating products that offer comfort, dignity, and functionality to those who need them most.
