In this episode, host Rachael Knowles speaks with Holly Cuthbert, a 25-year-old living with childhood-onset heart disease from Busselton in Western Australia.
Holly shares her experience growing up with a complex heart condition and undergoing four open-heart surgeries, including three during her teenage years. She reflects on the challenges of balancing school, friendships and health, the impact of medical trauma, and the importance of connection through the HeartKids community.
Now working as a social worker supporting teenagers, Holly discusses how her lived experience has shaped the way she supports others navigating their own challenges.
