    Chronically Illing Out, E13 - Look Back, Plan Ahead

    ChIlling in Review This week’s Chronically Illing Out with Nick Paro, Stephanie G Wilson, PhD, Soso's World, and Beth Cruz is a reflective, end-of-year discussion into burnout, visibility, and the power of community. We look back on the emotional labors of showing up while unwell, celebrate our individual and collective growths, and discussed intentional goal-setting while prioritizing presence over productivity. From mindfulness and emotional distress tolerance tools to new creative collaborations and meditative spaces, this week reaffirmed in our minds why visible, compassionate community matters — especially for chronically ill and disabled people who are navigating an increasingly hostile world.
