Today's guest is Noa Porten who hosts the Spooning with Spoonies podcast where she chats about dating and relationships with experts, singles, and couples from the chronic illness community. We learn how chronic illness can impact someone’s dating life and daily life, and how tools like setting boundaries and practicing open communication are crucial in the search for a lasting romantic partnership. For those who are chronically ill, Noa shares advice on how and when to comfortably communicate information about your chronic illness to someone you’re seeing. For listeners who do not have a chronic illness, we learn more about what it means to have chronic illness and how we can best support someone if and when they inform us of theirs.
