Living with a chronic illness in your 20s can feel like carrying an invisible weight that nobody else can see. Beyond the hospital appointments, surgeries, medications and diagnoses, there is a hidden psychological burden: the anxiety, grief, uncertainty, identity struggles and resilience required to keep moving forward when your body feels beyond your control. In this week's episode, I sit down with content creator, advocate and broadcaster Nikki Lilly to discuss what it's really like growing up with a rare medical condition, navigating facial differences, online bullying, and building a meaningful life despite constant uncertainty. We discuss:
  • The hidden psychological impact of chronic illness
  • Medical trauma, PTSD and the long road to healing
  • How chronic illness affects your relationship with your body
  • Online bullying, discrimination and appearance-based judgment
  • Plus her time at the Oscars and her vision for her future
