Living with Chronic Illness – Voices of Compassion Podcast

Episode 15,

Show Notes

Living with a chronic illness isn’t just about medical care—it’s about daily management, not a cure. In this episode we talk with CHC experts Tracy Cavaligos, PhD, licensed psychologist and Caroline Gillenson, MS, Clinical Psychology Doctoral intern as we explore the deep connection between chronic illness and mental health, from the emotional toll of ongoing symptoms to the impact on friendships, social life, and academics.

How do young people navigate these challenges while maintaining their well-being? Join us as we discuss strategies for coping, building support systems, and fostering resilience in the face of chronic health conditions.
