Episode 3 - Colonoscopy

"Hey everyone, welcome to the Stinky Bear Podcast — the place where we get real about life’s messy, beautiful, and sometimes downright stinky journey.

I’m your host, Jeff

For years I’ve been on a wild ride — navigating my own thoughts, wrestling with my mind, and trying to make sense of this wild human experience. Along the way, I’ve had some deep, eye-opening, and often frustrating encounters with the medical system. From confusing diagnoses and endless appointments to moments of real compassion and moments that left me feeling completely lost… I’ve been through it.

This podcast is my way of sharing those stories — the raw, honest, and sometimes funny truths about mental health, chronic illness, medical gaslighting, personal growth, and learning how to trust yourself when the system doesn’t always have the answers.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re carrying around a heavy emotional backpack while doctors poke and prod at the surface… you’re in the right place.

So pull up a seat, grab a coffee (or whatever helps you feel grounded), and let’s walk through this journey together — one stinky, honest step at a time.

This is Stinky Bear Podcast. Let’s get into it."
