what having a chronic illness is actually like

welcome back to live a little with nikki lilly - your cosy corner of the internet. on this episode, nikki gets raw about chronic illness and why we need to stop romanticising struggle. she's unpacking how social media trends and "inspirational" narratives can actually be pretty toxic when you're living through something genuinely hard. nikki opens up about her AVM diagnosis at six years old, 98 operations (and counting), and how her childhood became defined by hospitals instead of hobbies. she's also calling out the well-meaning but damaging things people say when they don't know how to sit with someone's pain... from "the universe only gives you what you can handle" to "just run a bath and get a takeaway." nikki shares what the right thing to offer someone struggling actually is... settle in for a conversation about what real support actually looks like. don't forget to subscribe and catch new episodes every thursday!
