Hey, it’s Gigi.

Chronic illness is so commonly misunderstood, ignored, and dismissed. This week, Gigi talks to two brave women -- Melody Olander, founder of But You Don't Look Sick, and Tiffany Yu, founder of Diversability -- leading the movement for chronic illness visibility and advocacy. In this episode, Gigi and her guests share their journey to acceptance, coping with grief, and dealing with medical gaslighting.

There is no one “look” to chronic illness and disability, and, no, I am not faking my chronic illness.
