Speaker Bio
Hi friends! My name is Roxanne Marion, and I'm the founder of On My Own Terms, LLC., through which I am an inspirational speaker. Twenty-three years ago, when I was diagnosed with Multiple Sclerosis, I saw an increase in my symptoms of depression. It wasn’t anything I hadn’t struggled with before, but the heaviness seemed more challenging to carry. That's when I realized managing mental health is as important as taking care of the physical symptoms of MS. Preplanning for moments I might struggle with managing my mental health became a priority. From it, On My Own Terms, LLC was born.
This is why I speak to associations and nonprofits.
My goal is to change how people with chronic illnesses prioritize their physical symptoms of chronic illness and encourage them to have a plan to help manage how overwhelming the mental health part of being diagnosed with a chronic illness is. Then, they can live life with grace and grit.
You can find me traveling, photography, and writing when I am not speaking. I look forward to connecting and being a part of your next event so that we can empower people to proactively manage their mental health.
