   "...From Work Stress with Chronic Illness."

   Welcome back, and today we’re diving into one of the quietest but heaviest tensions many people carry: trying to work while living in a body that doesn’t always cooperate. This episode is for anyone who’s ever woken up and immediately started the mental math: How much energy do I have today? What can I realistically give? What happens if my body has other plans? Because chronic illness doesn’t just affect your health—it touches your identity, your finances, your sense of purpose, and the constant pressure to prove you’re still capable. We’re talking about the real experience of working while sick: juggling appointments and deadlines, pushing through symptoms, feeling guilty when you need rest, and the invisible pressure to perform like everyone else running on a full battery. At the same time, work can also be an anchor; something that reminds you that you still have gifts, ideas, and contributions that matter. Today we unpack the complicated middle where most of us live: needing income but needing rest, wanting purpose but fearing burnout, grieving the career or capacity you once had while figuring out what’s still possible now. We also talk about the financial realities of chronic illness, the emotional toll of pretending you’re fine, and the surprising ways meaningful work can actually support mental health and identity. Plus, we break down disability protections like the ADA and why asking for accommodations isn’t weakness—it’s wisdom. Because the goal isn’t pushing until you collapse. It’s building a life—and a work rhythm—that your body can actually survive. If you’re navigating illness and employment at the same time, you’re not failing. You’re doing something incredibly hard. And you’re not alone. XOXO, Marisa & Britt *Also, please follow us on Insta @lupuschickofficial and @idliketounsibscribe and @goddoesntsuck - or learn more about us at www.Idliketounsubscribe.com

   "...From My Chronically Ill Sex Life."

   Get ready - today we’re talking about sex. The real kind. Not the candlelit, slow-motion, rom-com version. The “we love each other but I’m exhausted, inflamed, hormonally confused, and my joints sound like bubble wrap” version. This episode is for the couples who deeply love each other… but feel like intimacy has gotten complicated. Not because the spark is dead. Not because anyone’s failing. But because chronic illness, infertility, trauma, medication side effects, body changes, stress, and mental load have entered the chat — and they did not bring champagne. We’re unpacking why sex often becomes the first place strain shows up in a relationship when your nervous system is fried. Why safety matters more than spontaneity. Why shame makes everything worse. And why “just try harder” is the worst advice ever given to a tired human with a hormone imbalance. This is not about pressure. It’s not about performance. It’s about connection. About understanding that intimacy shifts in seasons. About grieving the body you used to have without turning against the one you live in now. About learning how to talk without defensiveness and listen without panic. If Valentine’s content made you roll your eyes and reach for chocolate instead of lingerie — you are not alone. Sex isn’t the engine of a relationship. It’s often the temperature check. And when life gets layered, the goal isn’t perfection — it’s safety, honesty, and rebuilding closeness in ways that honor your body instead of fighting it. So grab your headphones. This one’s tender, real, and maybe exactly what your relationship needs to hear. 💛

   "...From New Year, New Me Pressure."

   Hey friends, welcome back...and congratulations, you survived another year. Which means you’re probably tired, reflective, and already being pressured to know what your “goals” are before you’ve even finished processing what last year cost you. Today’s episode is I’d Like to Unsubscribe from New Year, New Me Pressure. January has a way of showing up like an uninvited life coach, demanding optimism, discipline, and a five-step plan… while your nervous system is still in recovery mode. This isn’t an episode about reinventing yourself, waking up at 5 a.m., or becoming a “new year, new personality” person. Hard pass. It’s about why resolutions fail (spoiler: your brain and body hate pressure), why intensity feels exciting but rarely sustainable, and why so many of us burn out by February feeling like we “did it wrong” again. We dig into the science of stress, cortisol, and decision fatigue, especially for those living with chronic illness, trauma histories, or caregiving roles. We talk about why desperation is a terrible place to build habits from, and why your nervous system needs safety before it can sustain change. And yes — we lovingly call out resolution & hustle culture for confusing growth with punishment. Instead of resolutions, we introduce a gentler, smarter framework: intentions, values, and what we call the Wish List Method. Not a to-do list. Not a self-improvement boot camp. Just an honest inventory of what actually matters in this season of your life — and what you’re realistically able to hold. If you’re walking into this year hopeful but cautious… tired but still wanting something better… this episode is for you. You don’t need more pressure. You need alignment, permission, and a plan that doesn’t ask you to sacrifice your health to prove your worth. Let’s unsubscribe from the guilt — and move forward wisely, together. ✨ XOXO, Marisa & Britt *Also, please follow us on Insta @lupuschickofficial and @idliketounsibscribe and @goddoesntsuck - or learn more about us at www.Idliketounsubscribe.com
