In today’s episode, we debunk a common myth about congenital heart disease. While many people are aware of CHD, it’s important to be clear: not all CHDs are the same.

Too often, we find ourselves comparing our journeys to those of others, without taking the time to recognize that every person living with CHD has their own story, their own diagnosis, and their own unique challenges. In this candid conversation, we open up about how we, too, have contributed to the persistence of this myth through comparison.

With over 40 different types of CHD in existence, each journey looks different and impacts lives at different stages. What unites us is not identical experiences, but a shared need for understanding, education, and awareness within the CHD community.
