Facing Hidden Challenges: Jeff and Catherine’s Journey with Hydrocephalus

Growing up with hydrocephalus, Jeff’s life has been filled with challenges that many people can’t see. Despite that, he’s faced every brain surgery and obstacle with resilience and hope, thanks to the unwavering support of his family and his dedicated partner, Catherine. Together, they are on a mission to raise awareness and build understanding for those living with hidden conditions like hydrocephalus. In this heartfelt episode, Jeff and Catherine candidly share their journey, emphasizing the importance of early intervention, community support, and having a servant’s heart.

Jeff and Catherine aren’t just sharing their story—they’re also advocating for others. With projects like the "My Hydro Warrior Story" journal, they provide practical resources for families navigating daunting medical challenges. Their conversation extends beyond personal anecdotes, offering guidance and hope to a global audience, including a touching story about supporting a family in the Middle East. They inspire listeners to seek alternative solutions and therapies, and to never underestimate the power of self-advocacy and a strong support network.

As we explore these themes, we celebrate the power of resilience and the importance of a positive attitude. Through engaging conversations and imagined dinner parties with figures like Jesus and Robert Kiyosaki, we are reminded that life doesn’t have to be perfect to be wonderful. Our supportive community is here to offer reassurance, practical advice, and a listening ear. We invite you to connect, share, and find strength in the stories of Jeff, Catherine, and countless others who are bravely facing their own medical journeys.

Jeff and Catherine Pearson are not your average couple.
Instead of a stereotypical married life of kids, careers, and family vacations, they found themselves in hospitals as Jeff underwent multiple surgeries for Hydrocephalus (Hi-Dro-Seff-A-Lus), a condition causing fluid to build up on the brain. As both patient and caregiver, Jeff and Catherine had to navigate the fear and uncertainty of his symptoms, working through countless consultations with healthcare providers, and handling the emotional and financial strain as a result of mounting medical expenses.
Despite their challenges, they leaned into their experiences with unwavering resiliency and hope to make certain others going through similar issues would never have to go it alone.
In 2023, they launched their e360TV show “Invisible Condition,” bringing awareness to the various conditions millions of individuals live with every day that are “unseen” by the outside world and amplifying their voices.
They have also created “Invisible Condition University” (ICU), an online community providing a safe and welcoming space for individuals and caregivers affected by these medical conditions to provide resources, support, expert-led workshops, understanding, and a sense of belonging as they navigate their own personal journeys.
Their message is one of Hope, Help, and reminding you that you are not alone.
Jeff and Catherine currently reside in Colorado Springs with their three children Elizabeth, Nick, and Kacia.

Steve Ramona Doing Business with a Servant's Heart

Steve Ramona discovered his calling at a young age and is now on a mission to share his secret sauce for success. He thrives on forging meaningful connections, sharing referrals, and watching people flourish.

His contagious passion for the Law of Increase makes his podcast "Doing Business with a Servant's Heart" so successful. This show is chock-full of inspiring stories about overcoming challenges and serving others.

Steve has a knack for spreading good vibes and elevating those around him. He learned from his dad that the entrepreneurial spirit is a great way to make money. I can share stories of how people serve, struggle and win. We all must overcome something, so why not learn to serve and overcome it much faster? I learned early working in our Health Club the importance of customer service. I learned that the more I served it was a win-win for everyone. I enjoy working with people, referring people, and helping people grow. The Law of Increase is my mission when I network around the world.

I love to mentor business people and offer all the resources I have. To win, you must grow yourself first; then, you can share this with others! I am an avid reader and have built a large book directory on sharing with others.
