    Season 3, Episode 4: Interview with Kiersten White

    Season 3, Episode 4 features a special author interview with New York Times bestselling and Bram Stoker Award–winning author Kiersten White. You heard us rave about Lucy Undying last season—now tune in as we chat about her upcoming release, The Fox & the Devil, out March 10. Along the way we also discuss Kiersten (fictionally!) killing her nephew, babies in incubators, and a few other delightfully chaotic detours. I know, we had a really good time. Our Book of the Week is The Trident and the Pearl by Sarah K. L. Wilson. Whenever a new mermaid book hits shelves, we’re reading it—because Angie would absolutely change her name to Ariel and grow fins if it were medically feasible. Unfortunately, this is not the story Sebastian was serenading us about, friends. Fortunately, Nikki and Angie were lucky enough to receive an early copy from Orbit Books, and let’s just say…we’re hoping Sarah types fast, because we are more than ready for the next installment in this series. Our Research Round-Up—where we break down key takeaways from NIH Rare Disease Day, focusing on updates and insights most relevant to patients and families—is temporarily delayed while we wait for additional information regarding the new gene therapies that were discussed. We want to make sure we’re sharing accurate and comprehensive information, so once those details are available, we’ll finish this segment and share it with all of you.

    Season 3, Episode 3: Interview with Rebecca Ross

    Season 3, Episode 3 features an author interview with the one and only Rebecca Ross. This conversation was recorded late last year, but its release was delayed while Nikki navigated some unexpected health setbacks. In this episode, Rebecca and Nikki dive into all things Wild Reverence, and Rebecca also opens up about her long and arduous journey to finally receiving an endometriosis diagnosis. We are so grateful for her vulnerability and willingness to share her story. Also featured in this episode is another installment of our Book of the Week. Nikki spotlights This Safe Darkness by Alexis Maragold with a glowing five-star review of this gripping dystopian fantasy. And finally, this episode includes a special segment where Nikki shares her personal experience with the newly approved fibromyalgia medication, Tonmya — including what worked, what didn’t, and how it impacted her sleep and pain levels. Tune in for books, honesty, and conversations that matter. 💜

    Season 3, Episode 2: Interview with H. Leighton Dickson

    This episode features a beautiful, thoughtful author interview with H. Leighton Dickson. We recorded this conversation in late 2025, but its release was delayed while Nikki navigated some health setbacks. We are so thrilled we can finally share it with you—it was worth the wait. Our Book of the Week is an ARC of Indigent by Briana N. Cox, and yes…it’s a five-star, glowing review from Nikki. You’ll want this one on your radar. And of course, we have another installment of Research Round-Up. This week we’re diving into emerging diagnostics in endometriosis—what’s promising, what’s actually peer-reviewed, and what may truly be approaching clinical availability. Smart books. Honest conversation. Real science.

    We’re kicking off Season 3 with an author interview featuring the one and only Sabina Nordqvist, author of It’s All in Your Head—a delicious romance that earned a coveted Kirkus starred review. This episode also brings back one of our favorite segments: Book of the Week. Nikki is raving about You’re Not Supposed to Die Tonight by Kalynn Bayron, a fast-paced slasher that blends classic horror tropes with a sharp, gripping mystery—perfect for fans of Fear Street. And yes, the Research Round-Up is back too. In this episode, Nikki breaks down two newly published, peer-reviewed studies that add to the growing evidence that hEDS is a multi-system biological condition.
