Chronic Conundrums - The Final Summit with Jordan Lambropoulos

The final summit! In the concluding episode of Chronic Conundrums, Joel and Lani are joined by special guest Jordan Darian Lambropoulos, Crohn's disease advocate, who uses her social media platform as a means for advocacy. Jordan shares her story to represent, educate and inspire a voice for the disability community and more broadly, young people everywhere.

Chronic Conundrums has been created by four young people living with chronic illness and/or disability to create a space for conversations about their realities.

Hosted by Joel Brookes and Lani Puse, with writing and research by Charlotte Mckenzie and Charlie Moten, the podcast explores a range of experiences from diagnoses and hospitalisations to treatment and health care transition services.

The podcast invites audiences into the anchors’ imperfect humanities, challenging chronic illness and disability narratives. The team aspires to reach all members of the community, those with lived experience or without; to educate and engage a platform for youth health advocacy in the broader community.

Chronic Conundrums is endorsed by the Sydney Children's Hospitals Network. This podcast is not intended to be a substitute for professional mental health advice.
