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.
Listeners say:
“You nailed it. I thought I was alone until I found your videos.”
“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.”

The 3 Most Embarrassing Parkinson’s Symptoms (According to You)
Last time, I shared my three most embarrassing Parkinson’s symptoms — and wow, the comments went wild. You all had plenty to say… and this episode is dedicated to you.
In this episode of Living with Parkinson’s: The Good, the Bad, and the Reality, I’m sharing the three most embarrassing symptoms according to the Doing Life Today community:
💧 Drooling — what I call the Niagara Falls surprise
💃 Dyskinesia — those involuntary “Parkinson’s dance” movements that show up uninvited
🚽 Bathroom emergencies — the one nobody wants to talk about but nearly everyone faces at some point
I’ll share my own experiences, your community tips, and practical ways to manage the embarrassment — from planning ahead to working with your doctor to finding humor when you can.
Because here’s the truth: Parkinson’s can be messy, unpredictable, and yes, embarrassing… but it doesn’t have to stop you from showing up and living your life.

Bryce-ism of the Episode:
“With Parkinson’s, embarrassment will show up whether you invite it or not. The trick is learning how to keep showing up anyway.”
⚠️ Important Note
This is my personal Parkinson’s journey—what works for me may not work for everyone. Parkinson’s is different for each person, and treatment plans should always be tailored to individual needs. Before making any changes to your medication or care, consult with your doctor or healthcare provider.
