About this episode
The episode features an interview with Albee Shanefelter, who shares insights on living with chronic pain.
Nearly 21% of the US population lives with chronic pain every day. If you’re used to waking up with searing pain or a condition that prevents you from embracing each day as fully as you long to, the idea that it may never stop can be almost as painful as the condition itself. In this interview, our host Stefan Zaichkowski talks with Albee Shanefelter, author of the book "Be Strong, Be Well, Be Kind". Albee, a former Silicon Valley executive who himself has endured chronic pain, shares his secrets for navigating life with pain that just won't stop.
