  • Not Alone Notes: Morgan & Molly's Mission to Build Community for OCD Sufferers
    2025/09/06

    Hey everyone, it’s Erica here!

    About 3 years ago, I went to my first OCD conference hosted by the International OCD Foundation (IOCDF). I heard a ton of inspiring stories there and also met lots of great people, including Molly, who is one of the co-founders of Not Alone Notes, a non-profit that literally does exactly what their name says - it helps people not feel alone. In this episode, I chat with Molly and Not Alone Notes’ other cofounder, Morgan, about how the organization came to be and their own personal journeys with OCD. Hope you enjoy this episode!

  • Louann: Classical Piano, Mitochondrial Myopathy, and the Importance of Representation
    2025/02/10

    Hey everyone, it’s Erica. A few months ago, I was scrolling through reels on Instagram, when I came across Louann’s page, which is called @themarionnettepianist. Louann is diagnosed with mitochondrial myopathy, a disease that can cause severe muscle weakness. She is also diagnosed with epilepsy. However, she is more importantly a board-certified neurologist and a talented classical pianist.

    On Louann’s feed, what instantly caught my eye were the two intricate harnesses supporting her forearms to play piano. As someone who grew up classically trained in piano and also majored in music, I was really intrigued by her setup, and wanted to chat with her more about it. In this episode, we talk a lot about our favorite composers, the accommodations Louann has had to make for her work and her music, and her incredible sense of resilience through it all. I really enjoyed listening to Louann’s story, and hope you will too.
