Manage episode 440519678 series 3373390
**Trigger warning: This episode discusses suicidal ideation.**
This week we had so much fun getting to know Belinda Brown! Belinda is the CEO of Crohn's & Colitis New Zealand! Belinda was diagnosed with Crohn's at 26 years old and we discussed her diagnosis, her search for the right treatment, navigating the consequences of her surgeries when she was trying to conceive, and her struggle with thoughts of suicide and how she coped with these dark feelings. We also talk about how her diagnosis led her to get involved with Crohn's & Colitis New Zealand, to join their board, and to eventually lead the organization as CEO. We discussed the great work they're doing and especially their amazing camp for kids living with IBD called Camp Purple.
We know you'll love Belinda as much as we did and we can't thank her enough for sharing her passion, her truth, and her vulnerability with us and with our community.
If you or a loved one struggling with thoughts of suicide, please call or text 988.
