Welcome to That's So Chronic (or if you're a long time listener, welcome back!) a weekly podcast where Jess Brien (@jessssbrien) interviews people from around the world who are thriving - and sometimes only just surviving - with chronic illnesses, life changing injuries, and potentially disastrous diagnoses... all while having a laugh along the way.
You can expect new patient stories every Tuesday, and on the final Tuesday of the month, we chat about anything and everything that's in our That's So Chronic world. Whether that be a That's So episode focusing on a book, film, or another type of content, or a Spotlight On episode where we deep dive into a person or an organisation making waves in the chronic illness and disability space.
