Here are progress pictures of my recovery journey from illness in 45 days, from September 11, 2022 amidst my ulcerative colitis health crisis to this morning (October 25th 2022). 

My journey with auto-immunity has been such a blessing! It’s helped me find my gifts in life, my purpose, my career, and get to know myself better and better in ways that brought more love, more joy, more playfulness and more peace of mind in my life. Because I deeply believe that illness, at its core, is a symptom of having missed the mark with our diet choices, lifestyle choices, relationships choices, career choices, etc. to the point of having created severe physical/mental/emotional imbalances in our body, it’s a great opportunity, an amazing invitation to become CURIOUS, to ask the right questions and to learn more about yourself.

I do not take any medication. I “just” shifted gears on several critical health levers and let my body self-regulate. The body self-regulates when given the chance. It took courage and conviction.

Sept 11 (and for weeks prior), I was dealing with a bleeding colon, a hard, extremely bloated painful belly (9 months pregnant anyone?), fatigue, constipation, brain fog, difficulty breathing with my diaphragm, little drive at work, difficulty rallying energy behind my entrepreneurial dreams.

Sept 11 is the day I decided enough was enough. That my life depended on making the next level of life difficult choices I had been procrastinating on making. In my head, the hard talk: “You either choose change now or end up with colon cancer.” I chose courageous action. The path to readiness for change can be very painful, but once you’ve made your mind and spring into action, relief usually ensues, almost immediately.

Today, Oct. 25th, everything feels normal and I will go see the doctor to make sure all lesions have healed.

However, I am on a roll cleaning up my life and making strides towards my big dreams so I am continuing on my life transformation journey until Dec 31 and moving building blocks. I have more decisions to make, more good habits in the making, and need to keep focused.
