In episode #53, Joanne speaks with her friend, Krista Watson.

Krista has had an incredible health journey and shares:

  • Her lifelong battle with digestive issues, leading to a diagnosis of Crohn's & Colitis in 2012.
  • How despite heavy medication, her condition worsened and in 2013 she underwent surgery to remove over 3 ft of her bowel.
  • What she was feeling after the surgery failed within 3 months & her Crohn's flared (resulting in her being put on even heavier drugs with more intense side effects.)
  • As if extreme digestive issues weren't enough, Krista shares how her health began to further deteriorate as she simultaneously began to experience debilitating headaches, confusion & an inability to think + perform daily tasks.
  • The day in January, 2017 when she was formally diagnosed with a brain tumour.
  • What it's like to undergo brain surgery & how the diagnosis was the wake up call she needed in order to take responsibility + control of her health.
  • The many lifestyle & dietary changes Krista made along her road to recovery.
  • The importance of having a strong support system & how her husband, Darren + the backing of family/friends was instrumental in her healing journey.
  • The unexpected benefits of changing her lifestyle, including weight loss (which was never the initial goal.) Krista and her husband have now EACH lost over 120 lbs!

This is a super inspiring episode & you'll love hearing Krista's full story of healing & transformation!
