My Interview on Unpolished Ponderings

I’m excited to share more of my chronic illness journey and what inspires me creatively in a guest post I was invited to participate in!

Fellow chronic illness blogger Olivia Wolfertz interviewed me over on her blog, Unpolished Ponderings.

You may remember Olivia from when I interviewed her as part of my Invisible Illness, Visible Worth Interview Project. You can read her interview about creativity, contentment and life with Lyme disease here on my blog.

We talked about some of my favorite topics—creativity, blogging, faith, and books, plus the realities of chronic, invisible illness:

“Starting a blog felt like a victory over chronic illness and all the things that it has stolen from me.

Blogging is also an outlet that allows me to have a positive impact. I’ve found a real sense of purpose in it. It’s a special thing to be able to give of yourself, and chronic illness can limit that in a lot of ways. But if I feel like I am able to share advice or encouragement that will help someone else, I don’t feel so trapped by chronic illness.”

PS Olivia and I collaborated again to do a Disneyboutnd challenge! Check out our favorite princess-inspired outfits as well as our villain-inspired looks. We had a lot of fun dressing up as Disney characters in an easy, low-key way.
