E:5 Loving Through the Unknown: Guilt, Space & Asking for Help


Listen Later

A raw conversation between me and my partner. Relationships get real when chronic illness is in the room.

There’s guilt. Needing help. Canceling plans. Fear of being “too much.”


And through it all there’s still love.


In this episode, my girlfriend and I talk openly about what it’s like to love, support, and grow together while navigating chronic illness and the unknowns that come with it. We unpack the moments that don’t usually make it to Instagram:

  • ​Asking for help when you’re scared to feel like a burden
  • ​Holding space for each other (even when you’re both overwhelmed)
  • ​How we make room for joy, boundaries, and real communication
