The Healing Chronicles Podcast
EP 17 | From Managing Symptoms to Living Fully with Colitis
In this episode, I’m opening up about my own journey with colitis—how it began, what it took from me, and the unexpected ways it reshaped my life.
For years, I let my diagnosis dictate what I believed I could and couldn’t do. I built a life around avoiding flare-ups, managing symptoms, and staying “safe.” But somewhere along the way, I realized I wasn’t just protecting my health... I was shrinking my world.
In this deeply personal conversation, I share:
- The early signs I ignored and the turning point I couldn’t avoid
- What it felt like to lose pieces of my identity to illness
- Why chasing “remission” isn’t the same as healing
- The mindset shift that helped me stop living like a patient and start living like me again
- How rebuilding trust with my body became the foundation for everything else
This isn’t just a story about colitis. It’s about breaking out of the limitations we place on ourselves when life doesn’t go to plan.
If you’ve ever felt defined by your diagnosis, my hope is that this episode helps you see the possibilities that still exist, even when the path forward looks nothing like you imagined.
