It Takes Guts It Takes Guts Podcast Team

Join us for the final episode of the season. Jake, Ruth and Christine pretty much chat shit for an hour, discuss a very important question, drop some major news and of course finish on a funny story courtesy of Jake.

All the gang is back together to talk about a popular subject, DATING!

Having IBD and dating can be a mind field, never knowing how to explain your illness, when to bring it up and the anxiety it can bring.

On Episode #8 Ruth and Jake chat with Liam Robertson about his journey with Colitis. He only went and wrote a book about it! Liam’s book is available to order on Amazon - More Than Meets The Eye: Living with Ulcerative Colitis.

An episode to get your teeth in to! Join Ruth, Christine and guest Ziyad (The Grumbling Gut) covering an array of subjects. Ziyad really dishes out some interesting facts about disordered eating, difficult diagnosis, medical wisdom, miss information on the internet, support networks and help educating the IBD community.
Settle in for a jam packed episode!

This week Christine and Ruth sit down to chat about another taboo topic, periods and how they impact IBD.

From delayed puberty, periods poops, endometriosis, awkward examinations with doctors, bum pain, and uterus repositioning…these pair don’t hold back on this topic!

Please note, the girls had some technical issues when recording, so sorry for some sound fluctuation.

After a short break, the team are back discussing how to deal with IBD at work. Everything from day to do management to opening up to your employer.

If nothing else, this recording really helped one member of the team figure some stuff out at work!
