Mel Robbins

The hidden reason why you may be struggling with bloating, constipation, and more importantly, exactly what you should do about it.

The shocking research that will make you never want to bring your phone in the bathroom again.

We'll talk about colon cancer risk and the signs you should never ignore and the gut brain connection and what's really happening when you have butterflies in your stomach.

Today, nothing's off limits.

Nothing is too awkward.

And I promise you, if you've ever had that thought, is it just me or

where you've turned around to flush the toilet and thought, what is that?

This is the episode where you stop guessing, you stop feeling weird about your body or uncomfortable in your own skin and finally understand what your gut has been trying to tell you.

Because once you understand your gut feeling, you know how to work with your body instead of against it.
