Welcome to another episode of TOC Talks. This week, our host Andrew Kistner sits down with the incredible Cienna, a beacon of strength and resilience who lives with multiple chronic illnesses. Cienna is not just surviving—she's thriving. As an advocate for living fully despite chronic conditions, she challenges the conventional narrative around disability. Her popular Instagram account, @Chronicallypersevering, gives us a glimpse into her daily life and her journey of perseverance. In this episode, Andrew and Cienna discuss her personal experiences, the challenges she faces, and her inspiring approach to overcoming obstacles. Cienna also shares her role as the president of the Periodic Paralysis Foundation and how she's working to make a difference.
