In this episode, I sit down with medical writer Hailey Hudson, who first began experiencing symptoms of hypermobile Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome in her teens. By her twenties, her condition had progressed to the point where she could not eat without extreme pain, nausea, and fullness. She reflects on navigating a healthcare system that too often dismisses young women with GI issues as anxious teenagers rather than recognizing them as patients in need of genuine and urgent medical care. Hailey’s story underscores her resilience and her determination to forge a life shaped by both entrepreneurship and advocacy—pursued not only in spite of, but also because of, the limitations imposed by chronic illness.
