The Sick Bitches Podcast
The Sick Bitches Podcast is a bold, unfiltered, and deeply human series that celebrates resilience in all its forms.
In every episode, we dive into the raw, real, and remarkable stories of people navigating illness, disability, and neurodivergence — exploring not only their personal journeys, but also how these intersect with the passions, careers, and experiences that shape their lives. These are not tales of pity or tragedy — they are honest narratives of determination, insight, and everyday brilliance.
Through in-depth interviews, we meet individuals who are challenging stereotypes and redefining what it means to truly live. They are healers, advocates, entrepreneurs, and humble change-makers who prove that thriving doesn’t always look like what the world expects.
With authenticity, humor, and heart, The Sick Bitches Podcast brings visibility to communities too often overlooked — revealing the beauty, strength, and complexity that lies beyond survival, and how lived experiences of disability and illness can influence creativity, work, relationships, and identity.
Whether you live with a disability yourself, love someone who does, or simply want to expand your perspective, this show invites you to listen, learn, and be inspired. Because these stories deserve to be heard.
And the people living them? They’re nothing short of extraordinary.

Healing vs. Adapting
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
What if healing isn’t always possible—or even the point? In this powerful and deeply honest episode, Casey and Christopher sit down with Jonathan, a longtime special education teacher who has spent decades navigating the intersection of his own lifelong depression and a career working with students facing severe behavioral challenges.
Jonathan doesn’t offer easy answers. Instead, he shares what it means to live in the gray areas—where mental health isn’t something to "fix," and emotional survival sometimes depends more on adapting than healing.
