Unpacking the Gift of Life

Valen leverages her own experience as a patient to amplify the voices of other patients, and ensures the true patient journey and messages are shared. Expect laughs, tears, and everything in between!

This is such an important podcast series that shares the intimate details of all aspects of the transplant process, both for the transplant recipients, as well as for all others who are impacted! Thank you, Valen, and all have contributed to these interviews!

I am absolutely loving this podcast! To hear others who can relate to your chronic illness and the many invisible struggles transplant recipients face while sharing hope and gratefulness for life has been a sweet gift and joy for me. It’s brought a comfort to me as a transplant recipient and I’m thankful for these conversations giving a voice to so many! 💙💚

We certainly appreciate the genuine heartfelt dialogue between the two transplant recipients. Now we know that we are not alone as we face the challenges of obtaining and living with a transplant. We are grateful that you share the detailed steps of this lengthy and often frustrating process. Of special interest is the frank and unfiltered sharing of psychological effects and how to deal with personal anxieties and feeling which are often not addressed by highly skilled specialized doctors. Well Done Valen and Cristen!
