Before You Bloom
104 (Part 1) ~ Steph Kelly on Invisible Illness, TPN & Rebuilding Life After Trauma
09 Aug 2025
I sit down with the incredible Steph Kelly to talk about her life after a traumatic car accident that changed everything. Steph lives with multiple chronic illnesses including Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS), Supraventricular Tachycardia (SVT), Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS), Intestinal Failure, and Gastroparesis, and shares with honesty and courage how these conditions have impacted every aspect of her life.We talk about the moment her world changed, the aftermath of her accident, and how her digestive and nutritional struggles eventually led to needing TPN (Total Parenteral Nutrition). Steph opens up about navigating grief, the loss of independence and career, and how she slowly found acceptance and self-trust in a body that no longer works the way it once did.She also shares the joy and challenges of her recent trip to Europe, how she’s learned to embrace being on her own, and why her story is a powerful reminder that life doesn’t end with illness, it simply changes shape.This episode is a testament to strength, self-discovery, and the importance of honouring your reality while still finding ways to move forward. If you’re living with chronic illness, disability, or a future that looks different than you expected, this one is for you.Find Steph : Instagram💗 Thank you so much for being here on this adventure with me! 💗- Hayley xo✨ Find us on Instagram: @beforeyoubloom ✨🎧⭐ Follow us on :Apple Podcasts🎧⭐ Follow us on :Spotify The Before You Bloom Podcast is recorded on the lands of the Wurundjeri people of the Kulin Nation.
