Chronic Chats
This podcast was created to make a safe space to talk about chronic disease and chronic illness I'll be sharing how it started for me, how I coped, how I advocated for myself, what I saw, what I learned, how I finally found answers, and what treatment has been like. But I also created this podcast to chat with others in and around this same world of chronic disease. I'll be chatting with other spoonies about their experiences, their journeys, their fight through the medical system and through a world that isn't very accessible for them; for us. As the podcast progresses, I'll be bringing on doctors, alliances, and organization heads to discuss things from their vantage point -- I want this to be a place where if you're sick, you feel heard, you feel seen, and you learnsome tricks on how to get through this. If you're not sick, but you have a friend or family member that is a part of this chronic club -- this is a space for you to better learn what they are going through, and how you can really make a difference for them. And if you're not sick and don't know anyone sick, this is a great place for you to learn empathy in a way you never have.
