## Resource

In this episode of the Talking Sh*t podcast, I speak with Yasmin, who didn’t expect her gut to become the biggest disruptor when she relocated to Los Angeles. We dive into her powerful and personal journey from the lab to the hospital. Diagnosed with Crohn’s disease on her 31st birthday, Yasmin opens up about the rapid unraveling of her health, the emotional toll of living with an invisible illness, and the road to reclaiming her life with clarity and purpose. Yasmin is a passionate immunologist, and we also dive deeper into biologics, autoimmunity, the future of IBD treatments, and the hope for a potential cure. This is an episode you definitely do not want to miss. For more on colitis, IBD and chronic illness, check out colitisunfiltered.com
