Revisit: My Health Journey & Living with Chronic Illness
Hiiiiii my sweet fam! 💕 This episode is a revisit to Episode 1 as I’m CALLING IN SICK this week with a flare-up from the pits of hell. 😩 Come hang out with me on my socials as I crush some Bravo 🍿, spill my duvet day tricks 🛋️, and share all the food Saint Cooper is making me to get me back on my feet. 🍲 Don’t worry, I’m on some heavy prednisone, so I’ll be back next week! Love you guys and happy hearts week! ❤️🩹

Welcome to the REVISITED first episode of Calling in Sick! This podcast is all about navigating life with chronic illness and autoimmune disease. Join me, your host, Alex, as I make a long story long and dive deep into my health journey 🧬, which started at age 6. I’ll share how my diagnoses—Polyarteritis Nodosa (Vasculitis), Lupus / Mixed Connective Tissue Disease (MCTD), Small Fiber Neuropathy // Dysautonomia, Endometriosis, and Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS)—have shaped who I am today. 🩺💪

It's time to submit your doctor's note because we are calling in sick together! 💌 Let's talk chronic illness support, self-care during flare-ups, and how to cope when life feels like it's too much.
