Before Brooke was diagnosed with Crohn's disease, she had never experienced intensive medical intervention. But when her chronic discomfort turned to pain, things quickly changed.
Brooke's story highlights the mental and physical toll of living with a chronic condition, her journey to becoming her own best advocate, and the impact corporate food manufacturers have on the physical lives of Americans.
As always, we hope that you'll leave feeling more aware, connected, and supported the human experience.
