OUR STORY: THE RISE OF THE PHOENIX
From the Ashes of Chronic Pain
My name is Tammy Eddy, and my journey with Resilient Art Wear began in the quiet moments of a life-altering battle. Diagnosed with severe Neuropathy, Spondyloarthritis, and Radiculopathy, I found myself facing a reality filled with wheelchairs, walker-dependency, and the constant fear of falling. In this challenging time, I discovered the importance of chronic pain shoes and disability shoes that not only provide support but also empower me to reclaim my life.
WHY THE PHOENIX?
The Phoenix is more than just a logo for RAW™—it is the “ART” in Resilient “Art” Wear and my personal symbol of rebirth and endurance. In mythology, the Phoenix must face the fire to be reborn stronger than before. For me, that fire was chronic pain. I chose to rise from those ‘ashes’ by turning my passion for art into a mission for independence, including creating chronic pain shoes and disability shoes that help others find their own strength.
THE RAW™ MISSION: SAFETY FIRST
Resilient Art Wear is a “living lab” where art meets stability. Every shoe and t-shirt I recommend is vetted through the lens of disability and chronic pain, with a particular focus on chronic pain shoes and disability shoes. We emphasize:
• Stability Anchors: Footwear designed to physically prevent the “wobbles” and keep you grounded.
• Adaptive Independence: Gear that makes it easier to live your life without bending, struggling, or settling.
• Wearable Art: Custom designs that remind the world—and ourselves—that we are resilient, beautiful, and still here.
