## Resource

🎙️ In this episode of Chalkboard Confessions, we open up about lupus — a complex and invisible disease that deeply impacts Caroline's daily life. May is Lupus Awareness Month, and while this episode may not be the most lighthearted, it's one of the most honest and important we've recorded. Caroline shares her personal journey: the pain, the fatigue, the resilience, and the reality behind what so often goes unseen. This conversation was essential — not just for awareness, but for anyone who needs to feel understood or less alone. 💜
