This week Alicia was joined by guest host and past guest, Derek Dodson! They interviewed Jordan B. McConnell! Jordan is a Air Force veteran, IT professional, father and husband who also lives with Crohn's disease! We talked to him about being diagnosed as a young teen and how his disease was presented to his family and how he was able to join the military and how that affected his ability to continue in his military career.  Jordan is also the creator and one of the hosts of the Crohn's Veteran podcast and lifestyle brand. We talked to him about creating the show, recruiting his co-hosts, and all of the amazing guests that they were able to interview as well as the community they created around the show. We also discussed coping with IBD as a male and how that may create situations where one may feel stifled in expressing needs and so much more. We had such a great conversation with Jordan and we can't wait for you to get to know him as well.
