    I absolutely love the show! It's so relatable hearing both of you discuss stomach issues. It feels like so many of us are dealing with something similar. I personally can't eat certain foods without feeling like they just sit in my stomach for days. It’s really comforting to hear about your experiences and how you’ve managed it.

    Thank you for talking about tummy troubles and all that it entails as a female. As a fellow auto immune survivor (Crohn’s disease, ulcerative colitis, and ulcerative proctitis) I can completely commiserate all that you’ve endured. Thanks for talking about the tough and embarrassing stuff. Great job ladies!
