54: Better Than a Cookie-Cutter Life [Couple's Edition] with Latasha + Shane Doyle

from This Is Not What I Ordered: conversations on chronic illness, loss + change

On this week's episode, I'm bringing back the Couple's Edition of This is Not What I Ordered to share an intimate and insightful discussion with Shane and Latasha Doyle. Latasha (who you may remember from Episode 53) and her husband Shane joined me in my own living room to talk about their life together. As many of you know, Latasha is the shownotes and transcription writer for the podcast. And as you've found out from her previous episode, she also lives with Marfan syndrome, a connective tissue disorder. This condition affects her daily life in ways that also affect her marriage with Shane. Because of the nature of her condition, Shane and Latasha have to be open about death, illness, and what they really want from life… which isn't always easy. I'm so thankful to have been witness to their connection, and to be able to share the conversations they have with each other. This conversation offers such beautiful insight into the relationships we all have as we live with our own health challenges, and about the hard conversations we sometimes must have with ourselves and others. I hope that you take as much away from it as I did.
