About this listen

Some stories don’t fit neatly into a chart. This podcast is about those stories. Featuring guests who were diagnosed with illnesses at times when society would have them believe they were "too young". Not because they necessarily are, but because the research isn't there. People who lived for years without correct diagnoses (or without ANY diagnosis). We'll discuss living life—not feeling defeated by it—when having a body that isn't reliable anymore.Vicki Nadal Social Sciences

  • Uncharted Episode 1 - Broken Heart
    Feb 5 2026

    This is the beginning of Uncharted.

    In this first episode, I talk about why I wanted to create a space for conversations that don’t fit neatly into medical narratives — conversations about uncertainty, identity, and life beyond diagnosis. Drawing from my own experience with heart disease, I introduce the questions at the center of this podcast and the kinds of stories you’ll hear in future episodes.

    Uncharted is about listening closely to how people actually live, not just what their charts record.
