The Unseen 0
Mar 9, 2021
“If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around to hear it, does it make a sound?” This old philosophical thought experiment raises questions about observations and perception. In this episode, we discuss the invisible illness that is chronic pain and how it affects not just the physical well-being of a person but also the emotional and mental well-being. Just because you can’t see it doesn’t mean it’s not there.

Pain Beginnings 0
Feb 16, 2021
When you read a book, you often start at the beginning. If you didn’t, you’d probably be pretty lost and wouldn’t get the full story. Chronic pain, like a story, has many parts. Knowing these parts helps us understand the journey of chronic pain and its many dimensions. We will hear from five people who experience chronic pain, and what better place to start than at the beginning.
