What happens when your symptoms scream celiac disease, but your test results come back negative? In today's episode I'm chatting about non-celiac gluten sensitivity (NCGS) through the lens of personal stories, including my own celiac diagnosis and my son's journey with NCGS.

Explore the complexities of living with non-celiac gluten sensitivity, especially in children who endure symptoms just as severe as celiac disease itself. I share about our experiences with both public and private gastroenterologists, and how they ultimately led to my son’s diagnosis. We'll tackle the misconception that gluten can occasionally be consumed with NCGS and argue for a more serious and diligent approach to its management.

Imagine transforming your life by simply letting go—of clutter, of stress, of what's unnecessary. I found myself doing just that, shifting from a self-confessed hoarder to more of a minimalist during my pregnancy. This change not only eased the burden of too many belongings but also helped lower my stress and mental load while managing my celiac disease more effectively.

Join me as I chat about my journey, where minimalism isn't just about having less but about making room for what truly matters.

I'll give you practical strategies to declutter your kitchen and wardrobe, creating environments that are not only safer but also more efficient for managing celiac disease.
By simplifying meal planning with the "cook once, eat twice" approach, you'll find more time and less stress in your day. Embrace mindfulness and minimalism as I discuss reducing external stressors and being intentional about what occupies our lives.
Learn how to reject the superfluous and focus on progress over perfection. Resources like 'The Minimalists' works are recommended for those eager to explore this fulfilling lifestyle further.
I hope this episode inspires you to lead a more intentional, stress-free life.
