Clearing the Airwaves: A Long COVID Conversation with @kd_kinetic

Saison 2 · Épisode 12

mardi 17 décembre 2024 • Durée 01:55:42

Welcome to season 2 episode 12 of A Friend for the Long Haul - A Long COVID Podcast! This week's guest is Katie Drackert, who most of you will know as @kd_kinetic. Katie is the founder of Clear the Air ATX, a volunteer-led, community resource library that lends out air purifiers and other COVID mitigation tools for free to artists, musicians, and independent event producers in Austin, Texas - where I lived for many years and sadly had to leave due to my COVID experience.

In the pre-rona days, Katie primarily worked full time as a performance artist. When Omicron hit, things changed. In this episode, we discuss our personal experiences with chronic health issues, including long COVID, and the challenges we face managing our symptoms while advocating for ourselves and others. We share our experiences with medical treatments, their emotional impacts, and the importance of community support and self-care. The conversation also touches on our backgrounds - which are really similar despite our age difference (I am an old) as well as our many shared interests, and future plans for advocacy work and creative projects that we are both plotting.

By the end of this episode, I became fully obsessed with Katie, and I think you will, too! You can find out more about Katie's advocacy work in so many places! Check out: Co-created a Zine with The Sick Times, Featured in BioWorld Med Tech, Teen Vogue, CBS Austin - Mask Bans, CBS Austin - Homeless Camping Ban, Texas Observer, Spectrum Local News, YES!

A Pack Mentality - Long Covid Community and Canines with Ray

lundi 25 novembre 2024 • Durée 01:11:35

Hello, and welcome to another episode of A Friend for the Long Haul - A Long Covid Podcast! This week’s guest is Ray, who most long haulers will know from TikTok and Instagram as @rayandstormi. Ray was one of the first long haulers I met when I made my original account back in Sept 2020. We’ve stayed in touch ever since, and I really enjoyed getting the opportunity to chat with her. Ray is a registered nurse and a dog trainer. In our conversation, we discuss her experience, including getting diagnosed with Trigeminal neuralgia (TN) is a chronic pain disorder that causes sudden, severe facial pain. It's also known as tic douloureux, Fothergill disease, or trifacial neuralgia.TN is a type of neuropathic pain that affects the trigeminal nerve, which is responsible for feeling and movement in the face, and is widely known to be one of the most painful conditions you can get. Ray shares the story of her brain surgery to help with TN, her long covid story, and we chat about being bendy friends (hypermobile/EDS).

Since this episode was recorded, Ray has been hit by a number of setbacks - the most difficult being when her landlord decided to sell the townhouse she’s been renting for almost a decade. Ray has been a pivotal member of the long covid community from the start, so I really want to bring awareness to the gofundme she created to help her while she faces housing insecurity after her brain surgery:

A Sophie for the Long Haul

Saison 1 · Épisode 17

lundi 29 juillet 2024 • Durée 01:03:51

Season 1 Episode 17

In this final episode of the podcast for season 1, I got to chat with Sophie, the founder and Creative Director of Berlin Buyers Club. From their website: "Berlin Buyers Club was born in March 2023 with three goals:

1. To spread awareness of Long Covid and adjacent diseases in a way that is relatable and accessible to younger people, as well as anyone else who feels drawn to the vibe.

2. To encourage people to get involved in advocating for Long Covid & ME/CFS research, treatments, preventatives, and cures.

3. To offer a safe space for people with Long Covid, ME/CFS, and PSSD and their allies.
If you can relate to any of this, if you'd like to help us spread the message, if you're interested in normalizing discussion about Long Covid and the need for treatments and preventatives, if you want clean air... Then you're a part of the Club too! Welcome."

Sophie and I discussed her experience with long covid, how she came to start BBC, how it has impacted her, and yes, we talk about how cool it was to see Violet Affleck wearing some of the Berlin Buyer's Club merch! We talk about what healthcare has looked for each of us in our respective countries of residence, ways to channel our anger, and advocacy efforts. I hope you'll tune in!

A Dr. Laurie Nadel for the Long Haul

Saison 1 · Épisode 15

lundi 15 juillet 2024 • Durée 01:00:59

Episode 15: The Five Gifts - Discovering Hope, Healing and Strength When Disaster Strikes

This week on A Friend for the Long Haul, I welcome a fellow traveler on the path of chronic illness! Dr. Laurie Nadel, a renowned journalist and therapist, joins us to share her incredible journey.

Dr. Nadel has battled chronic fatigue syndrome (CFS) and COPD, and understands the physical and emotional toll of long-term illness. We'll delve into her amazing career, her own struggles with chronic illness, trauma, and loss - and her dedication to helping Long Haulers. Some history from Dr. Nadel's website that I think you'll just eat up:

"After an internship with the London Daily Mirror, she worked at Reuters Television in London where she became the first woman news writer. Returning to New York, she became the first woman news writer-producer at ABC News, working with correspondents and cameramen around the world. A member of the Writers Guild of America, Nadel produced news about the Vietnam war and the anti-war movement, Watergate and the Nixon-McGovern presidential election when President Nixon won a second term."

"In 1988, after a long battle with chronic fatigue syndrome, Nadel was laid off while she was medically disabled. As she started to improve with the help of meditation, hypnotherapy and Chinese medicine, she rebooted her journalism career by writing for airline magazines and Men’s Fitness. Around this time, she returned to graduate school to earn two doctorates in psychology and clinical hypnotherapy. These credentials opened the way for her to focus on behavioral health topics and led to her writing several psychology books."

In this episode, you'll learn:

How Dr. Nadel's experience with CFS shaped her work as a therapist.
Her unique approach to healing, incorporating elements of psychology, hypnotherapy, and indigenous wisdom.
The "Five Gifts" from her book, explained as they relate to Long Haulers (she's committed to offering long-term support for women who endure permanent chronic health difficulties since the first wave of COVID in 2020. With Dr. Noah Greenspan’s Pulmonary Wellness Foundation, she helped launch the longest ongoing support program for Long Covid patients.

A Jacob for the Long Haul

Saison 1 · Épisode 14

lundi 8 juillet 2024 • Durée 01:20:07

Episode 14: I Got Bit by the Zombie and I'm not Telling You

This week's episode of A Friend for the Long Haul - a Podcast for Long Covid Friends features Jacob. Listening to the very beginning, I realized that I refer to Jacob as "him." Their pronouns are they/them, and I'd like to acknowledge that and apologize for making assumptions. YOU KNOW WHAT YOU DO WHEN YOU ASSUME.

I'm just gonna add a list of where you can find them now, because they are lovely and I am an old lady and if my three sons grow up with even half of Jacob's empathy and ability to show compassion to others as well as himself I will have done a good a pretty fine job. They've actually made it really easy: https://jacjack.carrd.co/ has all platforms linked and I'm probably about to copy them.

You'll see their content first on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@midwestsidegunn

I started following Jacob when a few of their videos started making the rounds in the long covid community. Jacob does not have long covid, but received a zine from a friend who does and that zine started making them think about how messed up it sounds. They started learning (imagine, a person not affected by your condition starting to listen and learn about it to protect themself and to protect their community!) and then started becoming more vocal about being covid conscious on social media.

In this episode, we discuss:

what led them to becoming more vocal about covid
their pandemic experience
integrity in the chronic illness and disability space
tone policing and being Black in the covid conscious community
the intersection of covid justice/activism & disability justice with all of the other major sociopolitical things happening right now (Palestine, Sudan, Congo, etc)
Disco and the importance of Donna Summer

and so much more <3

In addition, Jacob made us a disco playlist that I've been bopping around to for about a week and you'll love it. Links below:

Join me and Amy (https://www.instagram.com/longcovidrockstar/) on this episode of A Friend for the Long Haul as we tackle the frustrating things people say to those with chronic illness and long covid. We get real about the pressure to perform and the emotional toll of "have you tried X?"

But this episode isn't all venting! Amy's a total rockstar when it comes to mindset and pacing, and she shares how she reclaimed enjoyment in her life. We even dive into how she negotiated a return to work on her terms (because boundaries are essential!)

Feeling lost in the shuffle of illness? We talk about the impact of social conditioning and the patriarchy on our self-worth, especially for chronically ill and disabled folks. Amy will leave you with some actionable tips for starting a gratitude practice and reconnecting with the parts of yourself that might feel hidden.
