The Invisible Condition Podcast
Tim Reitsma Ending the stigma of invisible disabilities, chronic illness, conditions and diseases one story at a time. This podcast exists to elevate voices, educate others, and encourage people to get curious. To end the stigma, we share openly, vulnerably, and intentionally. Host Tim Reitsma invites guests to share what they live with publically to break down stigmas. Stigmas of shame and fear. Stigmas of “being different” when we are all normal. Every week we unpack a story to educate, encourage, empower, and eliminate the stigma of invisible conditions, chronic illnesses, disabilities and diseases.Tim lives with multiple invisible conditions including Crohn’s Disease, arthritis, and anxiety. My normal is different than yours and that is ok! I am a normal person!Invisible Condition Defined:An invisible condition is a non-apparent illness or health condition (physical or mental) that isn’t seen from the outside.
