Episode Synopsis

Season 2, Ep 7 Welcome to The Chronic Chronicles, I'm SO happy that you're here! This one's for everyone who's ever been told, "But you don't look sick." In honor of Disability Pride Month, I'm diving deep into what it's like to live with an invisible illness. From endometriosis and PCOS to fatigue, brain fog, and medical gaslighting this episode is part storytime, part real talk, and part reminder that your pain is valid, even if no one else can see it. I'm sharing my personal experience navigating chronic illness in a world that often demands proof, and why I've stopped trying to "look" sick enough to be believed. Whether you're newly diagnosed, undiagnosed, or just exhausted from masking it all, I see you. You're not alone.
