Chronically Curious

Welcome to the Chronically Curious Podcast! This is a podcast dedicated to centering the work and scholarship of academics and professionals who navigate chronic illness and/or disability. Our goal is to celebrate the incredible contributions made by those with chronic illness and disability and highlight some of the unique strengths and challenges that come with pursuing research, practice, or other applied work while managing chronic conditions.

Your host, Breana aka “Brea” Griffin, is a PhD student in the Clinical-Community Psychology Program at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. They face their own chronic conditions, including hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (hEDS) and Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS). Brea is honored to facilitate this platform to bring voice to stories from the disability and chronic illness communities that too often go unheard.
