I love that the Internet provides us with so many opportunities to connect with and be encouraged by fellow writers, and I’m excited to introduce you to Hailey Hudson, whose interests include blogging, freelancing, and fiction writing. She lives with health conditions including POTS (postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome), carpal tunnel, and undiagnosed conditions causing chronic fatigue, seizures, and GI issues. (Raising awareness about POTS is of personal importance to me, as I also have a form of dysautonomia, an umbrella term for neurological conditions like POTS.)

Hailey is a full-time freelance writer and content marketer who runs the blog The Hardworking Creative. You can also find her on her personal blog, Now All I Know is Grace. I love that she shares monthly wrap-ups highlighting what she’s reading, listening to, watching, grateful for, and more

Earlier this year, Hailey spoke at the 2020 Diamonds Conference, which is an online conference for chronically ill Christians. (I didn’t get to go this year, but it’s something I learned about recently and hope to attend in the future. More info about it below!)

 I hope you’re encouraged by this conversation with Hailey on chronic illness, faith, and perseverance.
