The Wish Kids

By The Wish Kids

The Wish Kids is a podcast that highlights life from the point of view of kids who have experienced critical illness. Milan and Matthew received wishes from Make-A-Wish and still feel very connected to the foundation. That’s why they call themselves The Wish Kids!

On this show they talk about their everyday lives, growing up with critical illnesses, how to balance hospital life and social life, foods to eat, shows to watch, music to listen to, and much more!

The Wish Kids is a great place to feel understood and connected, and learn more about the magic of a Make-A-Wish.

Ep 22: What Do You Want to be When You Grow Up? (DREAM JOBS DRAFT)

We can't wait to work!!!! (as long as it's one of these jobs)

In this episode of The Wish Kids, Matthew and Milan take part in a draft of the best dream jobs. These are the types of jobs that we would say as kids when asked by our parents or teachers what we want to be when we grow up. Whether it be an incredibly extravagant and ambitious career (perhaps a princess), or something that is so super cute (any veterinarians or teachers in the audience?!), Milan and Matthew think that they drafted some pretty great dream jobs. 

Let us know any we may have missed in the comment section!!!!

Ep 21 Cancer As A Young Adult: Alex's Journey Advocating & Navigating Clinical Trials, Chemo, & Life | The Wish Kids Podcast

It is a lucky day for The Wish Kids– not just because it’s St. Patrick's Day, but because we have Alex to share her journey through cancer, chemo, clinical trials and adulting!!

On this episode of The Wish Kids, Alex talks to us about surviving cancer, what role her mom took the process, how a clinical trial impacted her, a cancer reveal party, and some things to consider as kids with critical illnesses bridge into adulthood.

We are so lucky to have this perspective of cancer treatment and diagnosis to help our younger listeners prepare for what adulthood with cancer or other critical illnesses can look like.

Grab your wallets and cash those checks because it's time for a Shopping Spree with The Wish Kids!

Milan and Matthew talk about the joy and rush that buying things can bring, some of their favorite purchases, and some of their less than favorable spending habits. Plus, Matthew reveals his new BIG PURCHASE (He’s about 5 years late but that’s ok).

You better hang on to your receipts, because you’ll certainly want to return to this episode.
