Love this Erin. So beautiful and authentic. My digestive tract is messed up as well, and it can be both frustrating and isolating. Praying for you now. Thanks for sharing. ❤️

Erin, I just have to say that I loved this piece, the rawness and honesty. I’ve been thinking about it for a few days now. You captured the thought process for self-hate so clearly that I can’t believe I’ve never seen it. I’m so cruel to myself because I’m actually scared of rejection from others. It takes courage to be this honest and just wanted to say thank you for being willing to be vulnerable like this.
