Candid Hearts: Conversations and CHD
Candid Hearts: Conversations and CHD is a podcast hosted by Amy Erhart and Meagan Houpt, both born with a congenital heart defect known as Hypoplastic Left Heart Syndrome (HLHS).
Through candid conversations, we share our personal journeys and amplify the voices of others living with congenital heart disease—patients, caregivers, spouses, and advocates alike. Each episode is rooted in honesty, education, and connection, exploring both the challenges and the triumphs of life with CHD.
Our mission is to raise awareness, provide education, and offer hope for the future of the CHD community. Whether you are living with CHD, loving someone who is, or simply looking to learn more, this space is for you.
We invite you to join us as we open our hearts and share real stories that matter.
Welcome to Candid Hearts: Conversations and CHD.
Candid Hearts: Conversations and CHD
Let's Talk about St. Louis! Single Ventricle Day!
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Today I am talking with 3 fellow CHDers who went to St. Louis in October 2024. The conference is hosted by Fontan Outcome Network and NPC-QIC; CHD physicians, patients and their families come to learn about heart and liver health and how to extend the life of single ventricle patients. For patients it is a time to grow friendships and talk about our past present and future and to hear others heart stories!
