Nobody really wants to talk about colorectal health but it’s important, nonetheless.
This episode of the podcast is important to me, personally, after losing my mom to colon cancer 13 years ago.
I’m joined by colorectal surgeon, Dr. Ritha Belizaire, to talk about not just what you can do to keep your insides healthy, but also how to advocate for yourself at the doctor (no matter what the issue), and how to make leaps of faith to start creating a life you love.
