On this week’s episode, Alanna and Nicole are joined by Lauren Nichols, whom Alanna found on Instagram via hashtags, in the middle of COVID lockdowns. Lauren suffers from and is an advocate for Long COVID – in fact, she is one of the first persons known to be suffering from this disorder.
In this episode, she explains her optimal health prior to having COVID (she was healthy other than having insomnia). She shares with us how she was one of the first people in the country to be infected with COVID – and doctors didn’t take her seriously at first because she presented with severe GI issues and not respiratory symptoms. From there, she continued to get worse instead of better – and hasn’t been “normal” since.
Her symptoms didn't start there. As the conversation builds, we learn about the consequences of her lingering symptoms, including her stroke, how it takes her hours just to get out of bed each day, and so much more.
Lauren also revealed to us details about the toll that COVID takes on the reproductive system, especially in women, which many tend to ignore.
This is a timely episode with summer gatherings and barbecues here for the ne

On this week’s episode, Nicole and Alanna are joined by Leslie Jacobs Toole, a local Cincinnati momma with a story to tell.
She had actually followed Alanna for a while on social media and once she learned of GWGP, she reached out to share her BRCA Gene story with the gals. Being a topic both Alanna and Nicole were not very familiar with, it was a no-brainer to have her on the show.
In this episode, Leslie shares with us about her long family history with breast cancer - including her mother, who was diagnosed with breast cancer at the young age of 34. After witnessing her mother's suffering, she recognized the very real possibility she could have the BRCA Gene and also develop cancer like her mother. Against her mother's blessing, Leslie got tested - and the test came back positive. Then, in 2012 at the age of 24, she took her own health into her hands and got a double mastectomy. We were so blessed that Leslie felt comfortable enough to share the vulnerable details of how cancer and BRCA has affected her life - and we think others who are in a similar position will feel comforted and seen by her kind testimony - including how neglecting her emotional healing led her down a path that eventually led to her sobriety (7 years now!)
If your family has been touched by breast cancer and you're curious about the BRCA gene, then this is a wonderful conversation that you absolutely won’t want to miss!

Our first-ever guest on the podcast is back and better than ever! If you haven’t listened to the first episode with Krista Deveau, 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 soo 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.

Whew. Be ready to laugh, to cry, to feel all the feels in this week’s episode! Alanna and Nicole are joined by Alyssa Sabo, Nicole’s friend, 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 because of Wilson’s Disease.
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 and so much more.
You’ll leave this episode absolutely adoring Alyssa and wanting to root for her (and wanting to watch her on Gaslit). This is a can’t-miss episode!

This is probably the wildest episode yet. Truly. We get pretty raw about all things poop-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 pooping your pants.
This episode is not for the faint of heart, BUT it is so incredibly important to realize our bodies NEED to poop to survive and it should be something that is celebrated and not frowned upon!

This week’s episode is amazing! 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 arthritis, Crohn's disease, 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!

On this week’s episode Nicole and Alanna are joined by Amy Suto, who was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis during the pandemic. This conversation is extremely interesting, as Amy is in her 20s and most people with RA are diagnosed between the ages of 30 to 50. Like the common experience of many women with chronic illnesses, her college clinic doctors didn't take her early RA symptoms and pain seriously -- which caused her symptoms to go undiagnosed for several years until they became full-blown.
In this fast-paced, honest, motivational conversation, Amy discusses her early challenges in functioning and healing with RA. Besides inflammatory food, she also reveals the most common cause for a flare up -- you guessed it -- stress! (Being that Amy is always out conquering her business world, stress is something that is tricky for her to manage -- so she shares her tips with us!) She also shares how she handles her RA while traveling (she is a freelance writer, ghostwriter and founder so travels A LOT), the importance of having an understanding/supportive partner while battling a chronic illness, the reality of losing friends during the healing process, changing our relationships to food, and SO MUCH MORE! *Pass me the castor oil liver packs*
This conversation is so interesting and you will learn A TON! If you're a productive go-getter who struggles with the daily handicaps of having a chronic illness... this episode is going to make you feel so seen.

In this 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 depression?!), 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!
This is one of the most educational episodes to date! We hope you feel inspired to try changing your relationship with food after this conversation, and maybe move towards eating for a better life and healing

Our next guest, 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 speaker 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, Chloe 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.

To kick off season two, Nicole and Alanna are joined by Andrea Lausell – a Los Angeles-based actress, influencer and social 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/TikTok…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 jokingly.

This week on the podcast, Alanna and Nicole are joined by Alanna’s friend and certified badass Stevi Gable Carr, who is 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. This is the episode we ALL need if we need inspiration to not dwell and wallow in illness, but rather change the narrative and write our own stories.

This week on the podcast, Alanna and Nicole are joined by Endometriosis Warrior Sam Abel, who is taking initiative and sharing her journey with this debilitating disease on Instagram and TikTok. Sam tells us about her symptoms – which severely impacted her life, notably during her menstrual cycle – and how she had to deal with these symptoms for SIX YEARS before one doctor finally took her seriously. She talks about her various surgeries, the importance of advocating for yourself and how she is now inspiring others to speak up and speak out. She also discusses what helps her manage her disease – she tries to go the natural route verses the medication route – and a new discovery by doctors of two different groups of people who are now getting endometriosis.

This week on the podcast, we have an EXCLUSIVE! Nicole and Alanna are joined by Alanna’s friend Brittany Baldi – a Boston-area native, social media influencer, podcast host & former reality TV star who lives a nomad lifestyle with her professional baseball player boyfriend.
Alanna was recently interviewed for Britt’s podcast, The BosBabes, and while on the show, Britt shared something she has never shared to the public: that she suffers from severe allergies. We're talkin' allergies that are so severe that she has been hospitalized multiple times throughout her life, uses a NETI Pot nightly (ew!) and even has to boil her pillows consistently to avoid dust mites!
She shares with us how it has made life harder – she had to give herself shots all the time growing up and even had to remain ostracized from other kids when it came to early schooling (she was even home schooled for a period of time), and how she believes sports saved her lungs.
She talks about how having allergies and numerous close calls has changed her outlook on life and really puts things in perspective as to what truly matters: relationships with others and adventure over making a ton of money. This is an episode full of layers and you’ll want to keep listening to pull them all back!

In this conversation, Cody shares with us his story of being diagnosed with Ewing's Sarcoma, a rare form of bone cancer, at age 14. He tells us how he was told he would never walk normally again and shares not only the physical turmoil he was going through at the time, but also the mental anguish he dealt with while going through his battle.
He talks about how he has now made it his mission to help other kids battling illness and their families through the non-profit he founded (called Champions Do Overcome), He takes a deep dive into the reason behind his Walk for Hope and how it was his faith that made him surpass the odds stacked against him of being able to walk normally – and hopes he can inspire others battling illness to persevere.

In this episode, Nicole and Alanna are joined by Lauren Berberich, a mental health professional in Alaska, about Eye Movement Desensitization and Reprocessing (EMDR). We discuss how this form of therapy can help people with issues as "small" as getting over feelings of low self-esteem, to healing "massive" issues such as PTSD and the severe physical/emotional symptoms that come along with a intensely triggering experience.
Listen as Lauren discusses how EMDR therapy works, how many sessions are typically needed, and her real-life examples of cases in which this form of therapy has worked (note: Not all cases are human!) Also, Alanna brainstorms on some examples she feels this therapy could be helpful with! Do you have any more to add?
As you listen through this episode, you can actually hear the excitement and intrigue from Nicole and Alanna – who now both want to try this form of therapy to help them process their chronic illness and medical trauma. Who can relate?!

Originally, when we booked Nicole's friend Tamara for this conversation, we planned on discussing her battle with Stage 4 HER2 Neu Positive Metastatic Breast Cancer - and the success she's found in beating it with Gerson Therapy. What we ended up discovering was so much more...
Tamara reveals to us that she had kept the cancer a secret from her friends (Nicole included!) and planned to make it to one more big bash before she kicked the bucket -- but as her "death day" approached, something unexpected happened that reignited her will to live -- and caused her to seek care through organic raw food and therapy at the Gerson Institute.
If you're looking for a spiritual and educational uplift, join us in this episode. We'll chat about the Gerson lifestyle, the profound effects of organic and raw alkaline diet, the benefits of coffee enemas (she says not to knock them until you try them!) and SO MUCH MORE!
