Join host Michele Mateus as she celebrates living a bold and bodacious life with Kate, who was diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension in 2018 and has lived with an IV pump attached to her chest 24/7 since. Kate opens up about the importance of discussing visual differences and medical situations without shame, and emphasizes how humor and confidence play a role in her journey.

Representing herself on social media as Squishy Lung Syndrome, she advocates for seeing disabled individuals as glamorous and sexy, challenging societal perceptions.

This episode is a powerful reminder that feeling sexy and confident is an attitude, not dictated by size or health conditions.
