On this week’s episode of Women in the Nude, I sit down with the incredible Alexandra Wildeson (the coolest) host of the Calling in Sick podcast and a fierce advocate for those living with chronic illness.

Alex opens up about what it’s really like to navigate invisible illnesses while the world expects you to “push through.” We dive into her personal health journey, how she learned to advocate for herself in the medical system, the emotional toll of being constantly misunderstood, and the strength it takes to simply exist when your body doesn’t always cooperate.

This conversation is raw, validating, and a necessary reminder that rest is not weakness and that honoring your limits is revolutionary.

If you’ve ever felt dismissed, exhausted, or like you’re fighting a battle no one can see...this one’s for you.
