233: High Risk Humans with Madison Thorn

On Episode 233 of You, Me, Empathy, Madison Thorn and I explore why fixing all the problems of others doesn’t lead to being seen and loved, the near-death experience of being diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes at 27 years old, and how a sign that said “sacrifice the weak” inspired Madison to create the High Risk Humans photography series—sharing the stories of those the CDC classified as “high risk” in the early days of the Covid-19 pandemic.

(CW: Suicidal ideation, weight (as related to diabetes), and trauma mentioned in this episode.)
