This week’s guest is Megan Marsiglio, founder of The Gut Gazette and a huge gut health advocate. She started The Gut Gazette back in 2009 after being diagnosed with Crohn's disease and IBS as an outlet to connect with others online who were going through the same experiences.

For years Megan felt extremely isolated and humiliated about having a digestive issue - she felt like she was the only person who was anxious if she'd make it to the bathroom in time. By creating that safe community, she found individuals who were going through similar if not the same experiences as her which made her feel less isolated. The Gut Gazette is a resource, a support network, a community and a voice to make change.

Chloe and Megan chat about gut health, the power of a bidet and how advocating for your health is nothing to be embarrassed of.
