Season 1 Episode 6: Your Struggle Is Real "The Hidden Weight of PCOS"

In this episode of Almost Together, Kandice opens up about her personal health journey, from years of being dismissed in doctor’s offices to finally being heard and diagnosed with PCOS and insulin resistance.

She shares the breaking point that made her realize something was wrong, how her friend Dr. Jaymie Fields encouraged her to advocate for herself, and the relief (and grief) that came with finally having an answer.

This episode explores:
✨ The emotional toll of invisible illnesses like PCOS✨ The stigma of conditions you can’t “see” but still live with every day✨ How faith has anchored Kandice in this season✨ Practical tips for advocating for yourself in healthcare spaces

This isn’t a story with a “perfect ending,” it’s an ongoing journey. But Kandice hopes it encourages you to keep showing up for yourself, to ask the hard questions, and to know you are not alone.

💛 Your struggle is real. Your story matters. And you are not behind, you are becoming.

Listen in, and let’s build, let’s heal, let’s laugh… Almost Together.
