Peter lives with multiple chronic conditions but has spent the past two years tirelessly advocating for patients everywhere by taking the morning train from his home in New York City to Washington D.C.

To discuss the healthcare issues that are at stake in the upcoming midterm elections, we speak to lawyer, healthcare advocate, and professional patient, Matt Cortland. As a person living with chronic illnesses, Matt knows all too well the necessity of equitable and robust access to care in everyone's lives; as a lawyer with a Master's in Public Health, he knows the issues and the policies inside and out. Here's our conversation about American healthcare and the things that are at stake in November.

To kick off the new season, Lilly sits with Chris Snider, a diabetes advocate, blogger, podcaster, and the community manager at Tidepool.org, an open-source and not-for-profit company working to make diabetes data more accessible. Chris chats about his work, maturation as an advocate, and fighting for access to better and more inclusive care.

Peter Morley (@morethanmySLE on Twitter) is using his story to help fight for healthcare. Although he was once a very private person who never even told his friends he had cancer, Peter found his voice after the 2016 Presidential election, when he felt called to fight to protect the gains of the Affordable Care Act. In this wide-ranging conversion, we discuss the power of a story, taking 3:25AM trains from NYC to DC, and how his first-ever trip to DC resulted in making a John McCain staffer cry.
