The only Kiwi podcast about Parkinson’s Kitty Fitton and Emma Kyriacou get real about living with Parkinson’s—while finding plenty to laugh about along the way. It’s honest, heartfelt, and sometimes a little cheeky. From the challenges of daily life to the ridiculous advice people love to give, Kitty and Emma prove that even with a chronic illness, there’s always room for humour, hope, and good conversation. If you, or someone you know has been diagnosed with Parkinson's or early onset Parkinson’s Disease, we're here to help. Because this shouldn't define who we are. Instead, Parkinson’s can fit around us. It's just another part of our Ordinary Life.
