Rare Disease and Body Image - Eps. 5

In this episode of Fine, But Not Fine, I’m diving into the complicated relationship between body image and chronic illness, sharing my experience living with Mycosis Fungoides, a rare form of Cutaneous T-Cell Lymphoma. I talk about the emotional toll of having a visible condition, the moment I decided to stop hiding my skin, and the ongoing struggle between acceptance and self-love. I also share how exercise has helped both my health and mindset, the importance of finding supportive spaces, and why we need to have more open conversations about cancer and chronic illness.
