Megan Sexauer

Megan is a patient leader and communications professional living with systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE) and overlapping autoimmune conditions for over 25 years. Now in her 40s and navigating perimenopause, she brings a long-view, real-world perspective on chronic illness life that goes beyond symptoms and lab results.

Through her platform, Talk Lupus to Meg, Megan shares the day-to-day realities of autoimmune disease—from fatigue and inflammation to the often overlooked emotional, social, and functional challenges that shape identity, relationships, and work.

With a background in strategic communications, she specializes in translating complex health experiences into clear, relatable language that improves patient understanding and supports more human-centered healthcare communication. Her work centers on honest storytelling, nervous system awareness, and creating space for conversations that patients often don’t feel allowed to have. She is particularly focused on helping women with autoimmune disease navigate care, identity, and daily life with greater clarity and self-trust.
