What the Ef?!

The Unofficial HR Guide to Epilepsy with Chynise Cunningham


Listen Later

Chynise may be a Senior VP of HR, but don’t expect corporate jargon here. Instead, she’s dishing on what it’s like to juggle seizures, side effects, and the fine art of pretending you didn’t have a seizure while giving a presentation. We get into the messy reality of finding the right meds (think: speed dating, but with more brain fog), the awkwardness of telling people you have epilepsy (spoiler: it’s not in the employee handbook), and that friendship might just be the best health benefit out there. Plus, Chynise shares insider tips on what HR can actually do to support employees with medical conditions.
