S2/EP9//Krista Deveau: My Pregnancy with an Ostomy!

Our first-ever guest on the podcast is back and better than ever! If you haven’t listened to the first episode with .gut.instinct, now is a great time to do just that (Note: it’s not necessary to listen to the first one to understand this episode, it will just give you more of an overview on Krista’s health story/background).

In her second round with the Alanna and Nicole, Krista shares with us what it is like being pregnant with her ostomy bag. She tells us how she discovered she was pregnant, how her food tolerances have changed (i.e. she can eat A LOT MORE now!) and sooo much more. If you have ever thought getting pregnant with an ostomy bag can’t happen, Krista is here to prove to you it absolutely can, without issue.

This is a wonderful episode that you won’t want to miss, because Krista is just so darn likable! She makes everyone want to be her friend and we know you’ll leave the episode feeling the same.

Listen to her full episode, available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, iHeart Radio, or wherever you listen to podcasts!

Whew! Be ready to laugh, to cry, to feel all the feels in this week’s episode!
Alanna and Nicole are joined by Nicole’s friend Alyssa Sabo, who is a comedian/actress/writer based in LA. What many people don’t know about Alyssa is that she received a life-saving liver transplant in 2011 due to liver failure from Wilson’s Disease.

In this conversation, Alyssa shares with us her wild story of the emergent diagnosis, how she was in a coma for weeks and her healing following the liver transplant.

She discusses her lifestyle following transplant, stories of relapsing, the sign she received to follow her dreams and so much more.

You’ll leave this episode absolutely adoring Alyssa and wanting to root for her (and wanting to watch her on the STARZ! tv show, Gaslit). This is a can’t-miss episode!

This is probably the wildest episode yet. Truly. We get pretty raw about all things p**p-related. It's even hard to type.....such a taboo subject!

Alanna and Nicole are joined by Megan Marsiglio -- a mom, wife, entrepreneur, gut health advocate, and along with Nicole, a fellow Crohn-y. 

This episode gets real down and dirty! For years, Megan felt extremely isolated and humiliated about having a digestive issue - feeling like she was the only person who was anxious about making it to the bathroom "in time." As she slowly began opening up about her Crohn's Disease and what she was dealing with, she discovered how many others dealt with the same issues, and how many kept it to themselves due to embarrassment. It was then that she realized she had to do something to increase the conversation and push awareness - and became the founder of The Gut Gazette. 

In this episode we chat about bathroom anxiety when it comes to going at the workplace, when you’re dating, when you’re driving on a highway and have GOT TO GO NOW, etc. We even cross the lines of p**ping your pants.

This episode is not for the faint of heart, BUT it is so incredibly important to realize our bodies NEED to p**p to survive and it should be something that is celebrated and not frowned upon!

In Episode 6, Nicole and Alanna are joined by Lindsay Mitchell, the creator of Vital Side — which is (as Lindsay puts it) an innovative approach to intentional brain re-training. After successfully healing herself from crippling chronic symptoms from Lyme disease, Lindsay invested all of her energy into creating this four-step method in order to help others who are suffering to find relief and achieve long-term results from all kinds of chronic illnesses - including IBS, Ehlers-Danlos syndrome, depression, Hashimoto's and more.

In our conversation, Lindsay reveals the process that led her from her work as a certified physician's assistant to discovering and then fully investing in the power of neuroplasticity. We discuss how she created Vital Side to focus on neuroscience, mental exercises and visualization, which in turn helps to regulate the nervous system and calm symptoms.

If you're looking for relief of any kind of ongoing ailment, you're going to want to tune in - this episode truly illustrates the connection of the body & mind and how our trauma and mental state can really affect our physical state.

You won’t want to miss this!

In this week’s episode, the Gutsy Gals are joined by Vanessa Bighinatti, a holistic health and wellness coach who takes pride in helping others heal their bodies naturally through nutrition and mindset.

Vanessa was only in her twenties when she received her Lyme diagnosis, and she revealed to us the debilitating symptoms she lived with for YEARS (and how she was even bound to a cane at one point!) Then, one day she decided enough was enough. She changed her diet and witness dramatic results - and the rest is history!
In this conversation, she explains to us how food can be medicine for any ailment (sweet potatoes to help with trauma?!), the importance of being your own advocate, even the importance of mindset. Vanessa also adds in a little chat about Reiki, which Alanna is a BIG advocate of!

S2/EP3// Moyna John: Healing Through Sharing My MS Journey

This week on the podcast, we’re chatting with ! Moyna John is a writer and popular content creator living with Multiple Sclerosis.
In this week's episode, Moyna shares with us her journey since being diagnosed – which happened relatively recently – and how it has impacted life with her then-fiancé/now husband (hint: not much has changed!) After receiving her diagnosis, Moyna sought out an MS community to learn and heal with; however, she was unable to find people close to her age or with much diversity at all. Thanks to her creativity, skill and realness, Moyna was able to blow up in the digital space and carve a path of her own, chronicling her journey battling a chronic illness as a POC and encouraging young people of all backgrounds to come together and learn about their MS.

In this episode, she gets real on the struggles of balancing flare-ups with being a mom, and she even reads us excerpts from her most popular published articles that discuss various tips and tricks for living and thriving with MS.

You’ll leave this episode feeling as if you just listened to a close friend - because Moyna is SO DARN RELATABLE!

A brush with death can completely change your entire way of thinking!

On this week’s episode, Nicole and Alanna are joined by Chloe Temtchine, an award-winning singer, songwriter and philanthropist who is one of the most inspiring and positive people that has ever graced the waves of this podcast. Seemingly out of nowhere, Chloe was diagnosed with pulmonary hypertension/PVOD - and was given little time to live. However, with oxygen tank in tow, she sang through her 12 year struggle that resulted in cardiac arrest and a coma... which ultimately resulted in her having a double-lung transplant.

In this uplifting episode, tells us how her lung transplant has impacted her life and career, how she copes with the unknowns following a transplant, and how very little can shake her after all she’s been through.This is definitely one episode you do NOT want to miss. You’ll leave feeling in awe of the way Chloe views life and her illness and will be inspired to live the same - no matter where you are in your journey.

Welcome back to SEASON 2 everyone!

We hope you are happy, healthy and as excited as we are to launch this next chapter of GWGP!
To kick off Season 2, Nicole and Alanna are joined by Andrea Lausell – a Los Angeles-based actress, influencer and activist who was born with Spina Bifida.

In this episode, Andrea discusses the role Agent Orange played in her disability and how she has used her platform on social media to create videos featuring tips and tricks to thrive, despite the challenges stacked against her (hint: check out her YouTube & Instagram…she is incredible!)

Andrea reveals to us the challenges of being an influencer for the disabled community, and the pressures that coincide... as well as how she has made it her mission to dismantle ableism.
She also touches on how she was told at an early age she won’t make it to 30 – something she talks about openly (and makes many jokes about throughout the episode.)

This is an episode that will shed new light on being born with a disability and a warrior spirit – Happy Season 2, everyone!

Let’s expand our knowledge together once more 🤓 This month we’re putting the spotlight on African-American doctors and scientists that made an enormous historical impact on the field of Medicine. 🔬💊💉

Jane Cooke Wright (1919-2013) was the daughter of the first African American man to graduate from Harvard Medical School, setting a high standard of achievement for his daughters. Dr. Jane Cooke Wright stepped up to the plate, changing chemotherapy from experimental practice to an actual practical treatment for cancer. After analyzing a wide range of anti-cancer agents, Dr. Jane Cooke Wright decided to study the relationship between patient and tissue-culture response, resulting in a new technique for administering chemotherapy to cancer patients. These applications, along with patient studies in revolutionary chemotherapy chemicals, paved the way for modern cancer treatment as we know it. Her chemotherapy breakthroughs were so substantial that she was appointed Head of the Cancer Research Foundation in 1952 — at the young age of 33!

Today, we celebrate you, Dr. Wright!

dr. Patricia Batg is credited with discovering/inventing both a new device and technique used for cataract surgery. We now refer to the surgery as Laserphaco, and the device as the Laserphaco Probe. Thanks to these discoveries, cataract surgery is now successfully performed all over the world — restoring sight to those who were once blind.

Today, we honor you, Dr. Bath!

dr. Rebecca Lee Crumpler (1831-1895) is credited with being the first black woman in America to earn a medical degree. Despite deep-seeded prejudice not only against the color of her skin, but also compounded by her s*x — she went on to earn a medical degree in Boston. Her official title was “Doctress of Medicine” as she spent time in Virginia post-Civil War, treating formerly enslaved patients who would have otherwise had no other access to medical care. She later went on to publish “A Book of Medical Discourses” which outlines her experience as a doctor in treating infants, young children, and women of childbearing age.

Today, we honor you, Dr. Crumpler!

Continued high blood pressure can lead to damage of the blood vessels and weakening of the heart… despite numerous studies showing that people of color are more likely to have serious issues from continued high blood pressure, statistics show that emergency cases are not met with the urgency they deserve.

Dr. Daniel Hale Williams (1856-1931) was the first black surgeon to successfully perform open-heart surgery (pericardial sac repair operation). The surgery was performed in 1893, and the patient went on to live for 20 years afterward. At the time, very few surgeons were performing this surgery, which didn’t become a common practice until after WWII.

Later on, Dr. Williams became chief surgeon at a hospital for formerly enslaved patients - Freedman’s Hospital. He improved overall mortality rates there and continued to promote black excellence in medicine by co-founding the National Association for Black Medical Practitioners.

This week on the podcast, Alanna and Nicole are joined by Alanna’s friend and certified badass , the Founder & CEO of WISe Wellness Guild (), a platform that works to advance women through whole-self wellness. This woman is the definition of a queen that fixes other people's crowns.

What many people don't know about Stevi is that she is a cervical cancer survivor and thriver. In this episode, Stevi discusses her rare form of cervical cancer, how it shifted her outlook on parenthood, how it shifted her mindset when it comes to life and living, and SO much more.
