Grace shares her insights on navigating chronic illness while challenging toxic wellness culture and persistent cure mentality.

• The concept of the "accordion routine" - creating flexible healing practices that expand and contract with your needs
• Challenging societal expectations around disability and accommodation
• The importance of questioning "normal" standards and finding what works for you
• How to navigate medical appointments and healthcare systems
• The problem with forced positivity and toxic wellness culture
