In Episode 2 of The Poo Taboo Podcast – Where Gut Health Gets Real!, Erica Hartley and Kelly Hopley are joined by the wonderful Belinda McDonald, also known as Blinny, for an open, honest and inspiring conversation about fibromyalgia, health, healing and the gut.

Belinda shares her personal experiences and talks candidly about living with fibromyalgia, the challenges she has faced and the journey that led her to look more closely at her health and wellbeing.

We explore the realities of living with a long-term condition and how it can affect so many different areas of everyday life – from pain, energy and sleep to stress, digestion and bowel habits.

And, because this is Poo Taboo, of course we talk about POO! 💩

Erica and Kelly bring the conversation back to something that is so often overlooked: our bowels and gut health. Why are so many of us embarrassed to talk about what happens in the bathroom? What can our bowel habits tell us? And why should conversations about poo be just as normal as conversations about any other aspect of our health?

Belinda's story leads to a wider conversation about listening to your body, asking questions and finding approaches that support your individual wellbeing.

We also talk about colonic hydrotherapy, gut health and the importance of looking at the bigger picture rather than focusing on just one symptom.

Expect a conversation that's informative but refreshingly down-to-earth, with the laughs and candid moments you've come to expect from Erica & Kelly.

Whether you live with fibromyalgia or chronic pain, are interested in digestive health, experience bloating or changes in your bowel habits, or simply want to understand your gut a little better, there's plenty to take away from this episode.

🎙️ The Poo Taboo Podcast is about breaking the embarrassment around bowel health and getting people talking.

Because everybody poos – so why are we still so embarrassed to talk about it?
