Joel Nelson
Chronic Illness, Pain and Mental Health videos to raise awareness.
“A multiple award-winning patient advocate who uses his story to inspire change,” Joel shares his lived experience with chronic illness, pain and associated mental health challenges to educate whilst helping others feel less alone.
Telling his story of Psoriatic-associated Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis around the world, he also hosts The Joel Nelson Podcast and The Chronic Pain Club Talk Show, where he facilitates conversations to help others share theirs—building a growing global community of peer support and awareness through his candid approach for both those living with chronic conditions and those who support them.
Always promoting the importance of lived experience and the patient voice. Never filtered.
