Thoughts While Surviving Chronic Illness: Navigating Life With Sarcoidosis
Thoughts While Surviving Chronic Illness is a lived-experience podcast about navigating life with sarcoidosis, heart failure, and everything that comes with long-term illness that no one warns you about.
Hosted by Tate, a private chef living with cardiopulmonary sarcoidosis, this podcast explores what it’s really like to survive chronic illness—not just medically, but emotionally, mentally, and socially. From symptom flares and medical fatigue to identity shifts, dark humor, grief, resilience, and the quiet victories that keep you going, these episodes reflect real life as it’s actually lived.
This is not a medical podcast. There are no miracle cures or toxic positivity. Just honest conversations, personal reflections, and patient-voice storytelling for people living with chronic illness, rare disease, disability, or caring for someone who is.
If you’re navigating chronic illness, learning to live with sarcoidosis, or simply trying to make sense of a body that doesn’t follow the rules anymore—you’re not alone here.
New episodes share stories about surviving, adapting, and finding meaning in a life that looks different than expected.

The Vacation That Tried to Break Me (But I’m Still Here, Sarcoidosis and All)
Living with sarcoidosis can feel like starring in a long-running medical sitcom where the plot twists pop up at the most inconvenient times, including when you’re on vacation trying to rest. Without giving too much away, let’s just say my quiet beach getaway took an unexpected turn—and you’ll have to read the full post to see how a simple trip turned into something far stranger.
