Chronic illness and motherhood

Let’s get real! In this video I talk about what it’s like having chronic illnesses (CFS and Endometriosis) while being a working mother. Luckily I mostly work from home so I can balance my health and work better. But it does mean that many projects are now on hold. Even if I didn’t have any illnesses I think projects would still be on hold because of the time spent with my son.

In the video I also talk about the guilt that comes with having a chronic illness. Guilt from feeling like you aren’t doing enough, guilt that others have it even worse than you which makes you feel like you shouldn’t complain. There are so many people struggling with a chronic illness in the world but so few people understand what it’s actually like.

Others share experience over on the video on YouTube here.
