À propos de ce contenu audio
Kayleigh opens up about living with Addison’s disease, a rare condition where the adrenal glands fail to produce enough cortisol. Diagnosed at just 15, Kayleigh describes the medical journey that led to her diagnosis, the daily routines that keep her well, and the emotional resilience she’s built along the way. Despite the challenges of balancing chronic illness with study and performance dreams in musical theatre, she radiates optimism and determination.
Kayleigh’s story is one of strength, self-awareness, and adaptability – from planning university choices around nearby endocrinology hospitals to managing stress and illness triggers with remarkable maturity. Her openness about wanting more chronic illness representation in theatre is inspiring, as she reminds listeners of the importance of visibility and empathy.
The song that Kayleigh chose is The Chain by Fleetwood Mac.
