Hey friends – welcome to Thoughtful Human, the podcast. We’ll be talking with individuals and experts about everything from cancer, addiction, grief, and mental health, to some highly stigmatized, often taboo subjects like herpes, domestic violence, suicide, and more.
If the mention of any of these subjects makes you feel a little uneasy, well, that's exactly the point. We’ll use this space to explore why these subjects are so hard to discuss, and how we can break down barriers to communication and get our loved ones the support they need. Each episode, we’ll leave you with tangible tips to help you move through your own roadblocks and approach these conversations in your relationships.

Ali talks with Angelica Catalano, the Director of Social Impact at The Mighty, the world's largest digital health community. Angelica has lived with ulcerative colitis over 25 years. According to the CDC, in 2015 around 3 million U.S. adults reported being diagnosed with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD), either ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease.
In their conversation, they discuss Angelica's personal journey with ulcerative colitis, both physically and mentally, they chat about the differences and parallels between their experiences with ulcerative colitis, and they leave specific tips on how to navigate conversations with your loved ones impacted by ulcerative colitis and any health challenges.
