Beyond the Pain: What Sickle Cell Is, Isn’t, and Why It Deserves More Attention | E14

World Sickle Cell Day just passed, but the conversation shouldn’t stop there.

In this episode, I’m joined by Tracie, founder and host of the podcast Crimson Courage. On this platform, she shares her story as a sickle cell warrior and advocates for others living with chronic conditions.

We talk about what it means to live with sickle cell: the science, the stigma, and the strength it takes to navigate pain, identity, and everyday life. From pain crises to power moves, we’re breaking it all down.

No med school required. If you’ve ever wanted to understand sickle cell beyond the textbook, this one’s for you.

🎧 Tune in, learn something new, and share it with someone who needs to hear it.
