Episode 06: You said I couldn't run...so I laced up TWICE

Wednesday, May 28, 2025 • Duration 29:48

This week on Surviving out of Spite, Sam is flying solo and getting real about what it means to stay active with gastroparesis. From gut wrenching (literally) symptoms to workouts that don't go as planned, she opens up about how exercise looks different - but still matters. Spoiler alert: it's not about crushing personal records. It's about survival, resilience and doing what you can when your body's being a unpredictable. Sam shares how running, even when it felt impossible, became her lifeline; and how she's learned to move her body with grace, grit and a little bit of spite. Whether you're living with chronic illness or just need permission to pivot, this emotional but powerful episode is your reminder: movement is personal, progress isn't linear and you are absolutely still a badass.

Tune in now - because sometimes doing it anyway is the most radical thing you can do.

Episode 04: The Spiteful Side of Healthcare: Navigating Insurance & Access to Care

Wednesday, April 30, 2025 • Duration 38:57

The healthcare system wasn’t built for chronic illness warriors—it was built to test our patience, our wallets, and our will to keep fighting. In this episode of Surviving Out of Spite, we’re shining a light on the spiteful side of healthcare: endless insurance denials, gatekeeping around specialists, medication access hurdles, and the mental struggle it takes just to get basic care.

Whether you’re battling prior auth hell or trying to decode your EOB like it’s hieroglyphics, this one’s for you. We’re talking about real experiences, the emotional toll of being your own advocate, and how we survive—out of sheer spite and sometimes, stubbornness—when the system appears to be designed to fail us.

Because when it comes to accessing care with a chronic illness like gastroparesis, sometimes survival is a rebellious act.

Beyond the Breakdown: Healing After Medical Trauma

Wednesday, July 9, 2025 • Duration 49:01

In Part 1, we pulled back the curtain on the often-unseen reality of medical trauma; sharing the fear, frustration, and lasting emotional wounds that come from being gaslit, dismissed, or repeatedly hospitalized. In this follow-up episode, Sam & Levi return to dive deeper into what healing looks like when your trauma isn’t behind you, but woven into the fabric of your everyday life.

They open up about the slow, non-linear process of recovery: how PTSD from medical experiences can show up in subtle ways, how it impacts your relationship with your body and care providers, and why healing isn’t about “getting over it,” it’s about learning to live alongside it with more compassion and less shame. Sam & Levi share what’s helped them start to rebuild trust—both in themselves and the system that hurt them.

This episode is a continuation of the hard, honest conversations that too many patients are left to navigate alone. If you’ve ever felt broken by the system or unsure how to move forward, this one's for you. Healing may be messy, but it’s not out of reach.
