Chronic pain & illness is a noisy & lonely journey. One full of unanswered questions. The Spoonies Community with Eline Duk is a podcast for people who want practical tools, honest stories and a gentle but effective way to reclaim their life. Rooted in Eline’s own lived experience with chronic illness, and co-hosted by her husband Marcus Pask, the show is on the lookout for people who are living great, meaningful lives despite health challenges. Some episodes are honest, personal conversations where Eline and Marcus share how they manage living with chronic illness and the somatic, trauma-informed and other healing methods/practices that help. Other episodes are interviews with clinicians, researchers or other Spoonies who have navigated big transformations themselves to find purpose and joy.
Whether you live with CRPS, FND, EDS, POTS, migraine, any other (in)visible condition or even without a diagnosis, you’ll find candid conversations about identity, grief and practical steps that actually move the needle.
Show notes include episode transcripts, resources and links to free tools from The Spoonies Community. Subscribe to the podcast and join other Spoonies reclaiming energy, safety and agency over their own lives.
