S3E1: It Matters That You’re Heard.
Season 3 is here, and I want to hear from you!
Think of it as a blend between a q&a and an ‘agony aunt’ column, where you send me what’s going on for you and your chronic illness right now, and I offer reflections, shared experiences, guidance and a different perspective (as well as just being here to listen & witness).
The idea behind this pod-project is for you to feel the power of getting to talk about your experience as it is; to create a space where you’ll be witnessed, heard and understood; to receive the energy from a community of people get it; and in listening to others’ stories, to know you’re not alone.
It’s not just about having a question answered; it’s about allowing yourself to be seen and acknowledged, it’s about giving a voice to your hope and knowing that there’s another way to live with chronic illness, it’s about putting another log on the fire of your healing journey.
And whilst all of that is bloody wonderful, I also know it takes energy - the preciousness of which varies depending on where you’re at right now - and therefore time. So I’ve decided to remove the deadline and will be taking submissions thought the season.
Here’s the link if you want to send me something.
I invite you to take 5-10 minutes to yourself, with a blanket and cup of something delicious, and let the words that come, soothe you. I’ve created a form with some prompts to make it that bit easier.
It’s important that you’re heard. It’s important you acknowledge you’re worthy of the time it takes to share your experience.
This is going to be truly special.
