CATINA’S STORY
Where it all began and how it´s going now
2016: Diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgia
Catina experienced symptoms of chronic pain, fatigue and anemia since childhood, and endured medical gaslighting and misdiagnosis for decades. After a near fatal car accident in 2012 and four years of constant pain, she was finally diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgia in 2016. Two years later, she was diagnosed with endometriosis.
2022 & Beyond: A Thriving Year!
Early in 2022, Catina’s business began to grow rapidly as she garnered brand partnerships, launched the Inflamed Sisters Thriving Podcast, created a group coaching program, established the Inflamed Sisters Thriving Community and hosted the first annual Inflamed Sisters Thriving Summit and Gala. By January 2023, Catina was featured in her first magazine article in Canvas Rebel and the March 2023 edition of Women’s Health Magazine. In November 2023, she created the non-profit, Inflamed Sisters Thriving Inc.
2006: Became A Registered Nurse (RN,BSN)
Catina’s first job was as a unit secretary in Pediatrics at the Lakeland Regional Medical Center in 2000 where she developed her passion for nursing. After graduating from McKeel Academy of Technology with a 4.0+ GPA, she received a full academic scholarship to attend the University of South Florida where she graduated from the School of Nursing with a bachelor’s of science in nursing. She started her nursing career at Tampa General Hospital and later transitioned to health coaching and clinical quality data management.
