Show Notes
You know The Secret Life of Parkinson’s podcast — but what you may not know is that it sparked something even bigger. Through the stories we’ve shared and the people we’ve met, the podcast pushed us to reimagine what our nonprofit, the 5KforJK could be. What started as a single 5K in honor of Jessica’s diagnosis has grown into "Changing Parkinson’s"—a movement to help people live better with PD, today. Visit www.changingparkinsons.org to learn more.
In this episode, we take you behind the scenes to share:
-How the podcast inspired us to think bigger
-The evolution from 5K for JK to a full nonprofit mission
-The real impact of community, education, and support
-Why this work is personal—and why it matters more than ever
The podcast started the conversation.
But the mission? That’s what’s changing lives.
