About the episode
Sex and intimacy are rarely talked about in the context of chronic illness. Navigating pain, fatigue, and fluctuating energy are only part of the story. There’s also the emotional toll of societal perceptions, the impact on self-image, and figuring out where to turn for understanding. In this episode, writer and activist Carly Findlay opens ups about her own journey with chronic illness, and psychologist Liel Bridgford brings both professional insight and lived experience to unpack the role of communication, self-love, and reimagining intimacy when bodies and abilities change.
