Grief, Gratitude, and Chronic Illness: How We're Really Doing This Holiday Season

from More Than A Diagnosis · host Den and Jes

In this week's episode, Den and Jes slow things down and talk candidly about what it looks like to hold grief and gratitude at the same time especially when you're living in a body that's changed, tired, or still healing. Instead of trying to offer you a guide or tidy answers, this is a real-time conversation between two friends about the emotions that surprised us this season, the ones we're still unpacking, and how both the heavy and the hopeful can coexist. We're giving ourselves (and you) permission to feel it all — the joy, the ache, the overwhelm — and permission to not be okay. If the holidays are bringing up more than you expected, or if you're still figuring out what this season means for you, this episode is a reminder that you're not alone in it. Tune in and take what you need. Then come hangout with us over at morethanadiagnosis.org
