In this episode of the Gentle Gut Guide podcast, we're discussing the unfiltered reality of living with Irritable Bowel Syndrome (IBS). Join me as we explore what IBS is, from its common symptoms to the misconceptions that often surround it.

My goal in this episode is to provide a resource that individuals with IBS can share with their loved ones to provide education for further understanding of the symptoms they deal with daily.

As we navigate through this candid conversation, we focus on the importance of raising awareness about IBS, particularly during IBS awareness month, and empowering individuals to take control of their digestive health journey.
