Living Chronic
Welcome to the Living Chronic Podcast, where we have real, raw, and honest conversations about life with chronic illness and disability. Hosted by Brandy Schantz, a disabled veteran and chronic illness advocate, this podcast explores the realities of navigating work, healthcare, and everyday life while managing a disability or chronic condition.
Each episode features insightful discussions with medical professionals, disability advocates, and individuals sharing their personal journeys. We tackle topics such as workplace accommodations, navigating the healthcare system, mental health, and breaking down societal barriers that often hold disabled individuals back.
Whether you're living with a chronic condition, supporting a loved one, or looking to create a more inclusive world, Living Chronic is here to provide knowledge, inspiration, and a sense of community.
Join us as we change the conversation around chronic illness because thriving with a disability is not only possible but powerful.

Learning to Get Rid of the Guilt
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
It's been a while since my last podcast episode and I'm struggling with the guilt I feel for not being able to keep up with all the things I want to accomplish. I want to do all the things I did before I got sick and it's hard to find my worth outside of being the woman who could run fast and work hard. I'm learning to assuage myself of that guilt and accept my new reality. Most importantly, I'm learning to find my worth in my new body. #LivingChronic #Crohnsdisease #fibromyalgia #LongCovid #Guilt
