This is the second episode of the chronic sex podcast. And I am super excited and a little overwhelmed. I don’t mind saying that. Before I dive into today's conversation, I want to take a second to think my pal Jenni from chronic Babe. In general, she is a badass but that definitely goes double for being the first to support the show via Patreon. If you'd like to help support chronic sex like Jenni, please check out the show notes for links. You could also just search Kirsten Schultz on Patreon or go to page Patreon.com/Kirstenisthecoolest. Yeah I'm inventive. Now on to today's show.

HAPPY MUSIC :)

Today we are talking with my friend Chelsea. She deals with multiple chronic illnesses, too, and they have a large impact on her sex life and honestly dating in general. We talk about dating, being the go-to people for sex questions from our friends, and cool things like Fetlife, BDSM, and kink.
