Crohn's
Hi everyone! I’m Jen, I have an autoimmune disease called Crohn’s. I was misdiagnosed in 2019 with Ulcerative Colitis, but in the middle of 2021 I was able to get the proper diagnosis: Crohn’s. Since being diagnosed my world has changed, I’ve never experienced anything like this. I went from visiting the doctor maybe once a year, to multiple times a month. I have bought multiple books, read a lot of articles, and taken so many notes on Crohn’s and Ulcerative Colitis. After implementing different eating habits, a morning routine, and many other things, a lot changed for the better. Since then I have become a chronic illness life coach, I am determined to show others with chronic illness that there is more to life. In the beginning, I allowed myself to become my illness. I now work with my illness, not against it and I show others how to do the same. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out and DM me (@letzgetgutzy). I want to leave you with one of my favorite quotes, “This illness is not me. It may be part of my story, but it will never be strong enough to define me.” -Hannah Bowers
