68. Esther Crain, Illuminating Personal Narratives of Invisible Illness and Misdiagnosis


Listen Later

As deputy editor at Health.com, Esther Crain has developed features that reflect the hidden health experiences of people today. Focusing on women who have been misdiagnosed or diagnosed with invisible illnesses, she looks for stories that are relatable and help shine a light on different conditions and experiences with healthcare. On today's episode, we talk about what led to her interest in health publishing, the power of personal narrative, and how the humanity in stories can make them hit home.
