Donna Parkhurst

Welcome. I’m Donna Parkhurst: advocate, educator, and woman living with early-onset Parkinson’s.

Diagnosed at 51, I created this space to support people navigating Parkinson’s and the ones who love them.

Here we talk honestly about the visible and invisible symptoms of Parkinson’s.

My lived experience as a woman shapes much of what I share, especially around the ways women are often underrepresented, misdiagnosed, or dismissed. But this channel is for anyone seeking clarity, encouragement, and evidence-informed support.

Whether you’re newly diagnosed, years into the journey, or a caregiver, you belong here!

You’ll find:
• Real conversations about symptoms & treatment
• Practical resilience and nervous system tools
• Evidence-based wellness strategies
• Advocacy and myth-busting
• Encouragement to live fully, even with uncertainty

You are not alone here.
