Living with Parkinson’s | Bryce Perry
The Good, the Bad, and the Reality – Your Source of Strength, Hope, and Support.
Diagnosed with Parkinson’s in 2010 at age 40, Bryce Perry has spent over 15 years navigating the daily challenges, unexpected changes, and surprising lessons that come with living with a progressive disease. Through it all, he’s found purpose, perspective — and plenty of humor.
Living with Parkinson’s is a real, raw, and often surprisingly funny podcast that explores what life is truly like with Parkinson’s. Whether you’re newly diagnosed, deep into your journey, or supporting someone who is, this show delivers honest stories, practical advice, and a healthy dose of encouragement.
From medication and mindset to relationships, work, identity, and adapting to constant change, Bryce dives into the good, the bad, and — most importantly — the reality of life with Parkinson’s. It’s a podcast built on truth, resilience, and the belief that you can still live fully, even when life looks different than expected.

“I laughed out loud… and then cried. This is exactly what I needed today.”
“Bryce says what we’re all thinking but don’t always have the words for.”

5 Things People Without Parkinson’s Will Never Truly Understand
Have you ever had someone without Parkinson’s act like you’re exaggerating, even when you’re struggling just to get through the day? Yeah — me too.
In this episode of Living with Parkinson’s: The Good, the Bad, and the Reality, I share the Five things people without Parkinson’s will never truly understand. From invisible battles to exhaustion that hits like gravity’s been turned up, we’re diving deep into the daily realities most people never see:
1️⃣ The invisible fight happening inside your body
2️⃣ How simple tasks can feel like Olympic events
3️⃣ The mental energy it takes just to move
4️⃣ Why good days don’t mean you’re “better”
5️⃣ And the hidden calculations behind every social moment
If you’ve ever felt misunderstood or minimized, this one’s for you. And stay until the end for a Bryce-ism that reframes strength in a way that’ll stick with you.

⚠️ Important Note
This is my personal Parkinson’s medication journey—what works for me may not work for everyone. Parkinson’s is different for each person, and medication plans should always be tailored to individual needs. Before making any changes to your medication or treatment, consult with your doctor or healthcare provider.

Bryce-ism of the Episode:
“With Parkinson’s, your strongest muscles aren’t in your body. They’re in your ability to keep showing up when nobody else sees the fight.”
