Life has a way of bending us. Sometimes it even snaps our plans in half. Bend Snap and Chat is a podcast about navigating life's unexpected challenges with resilience, honesty, and humour. Hosted by Cristie and Drake, this show explores the messy, complicated, and often funny realities of living in bodies that don't cooperate in a world gone wild. This isn't a podcast about having everything figured out. It's about learning to navigate life as it unfolds, because life bends us all.

Learning to adapt to life after being diagnosed with chronic pain and illness is extremely difficult. Life as you knew it, along with your hopes and dreams for your life, literally gets turned upside down in an instant. This comes with a lot of deep complicated emotions from grief, sadness, anger, frustration to living in a constant state of uncertainty and stress. Most people assume that if you get sick, a medical professional like Dr. House will work endlessly until they have answers and a cure so you can go back to living the life you used to know.
