005 When Your Labs Scare You: Navigating Kidney Issues with Chronic Illness

I know this wasn’t the most uplifting episode—but I also know how lonely it feels to sit with scary lab results, unanswered questions, and a body that’s just not cooperating. So if you’re there right now too, please know: I see you. You’re not broken. You’re not failing. And you don’t have to face the unknown alone. Whether your kidneys are flaring, your labs are off, or your energy is hanging by a thread—you still belong here. You’re still worthy of rest, support, and softness.

Memorable Quotes:

1. I don’t have a bow to tie on this episode—just a body that’s tired, a heart that’s scared, and a voice that refuses to stay silent.

2. You can be scared and strong at the same time. You can cry in the car and still keep showing up.

3. This is the part of chronic illness no one prepares you for—the waiting, the worrying, the wondering if your body is betraying you.
