Chronically Candid is a conversational, reflective podcast hosted by Morgan Barrett, a Millennial mom to twins and an adult living with cystic fibrosis. The show (formerly Makers, Dreamers, Doers) features open-hearted discussions with guests and solo episodes that explore topics like creativity, chronic health experiences, parenthood, personal growth, and everyday life challenges. Morgan’s aim isn’t to be an expert but to share lived experiences and foster learning, unlearning, and emotional flexibility. The podcast also includes monthly “Fireside Fridays” — brief readings of Morgan's poetry and prose — adding a cozy and personal touch to the series. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
