Talking About Chronic Illness Is Awkward; Q&A with Jenna Gestetner
In this Calling in Sick x Ask Alex, Jenna Gestetner and I are answering your questions about navigating the real-life-isms of chronic illness.
We cover:
đ Our favorite adaptive and chronic illnessâfriendly fashion brands
đŹ How to talk about the ebbs and flows of chronic illness without feeling like youâre trauma dumping
đ§ Why you donât owe anyone your full health story (and how to share boundaries confidently)
đ¤ The emotional side of deciding whether to start a family with chronic illness
Living with chronic illness means constantly navigating conversations, decisions, and life milestones a little differently than other people. If youâve ever felt unsure about how much to share about your health, how to advocate for yourself, or how to plan for the future, this episode is for you.
As always, Substack subscribers get bonus Q&A content and deeper dives, link below!
