S3E96. I'm 48, Here’s What I Wish I’d Done at 30 to Fix My IBS

CharlieJeane Cooke Season 3 Episode 96

If you’re a man living with IBS and you’re trying to “tough it out” or fix it through random diet cuts… this episode is for you.

I’m 48, I’ve lived with IBS for years, and in this episode I share 10 things I genuinely wish I’d done at 30 that would have saved me a lot of pain, confusion, and lost time.

These aren’t “perfect gut” tips. They’re real-world actions that help you take back control — physically, mentally, and socially — so IBS stops running your life.

✅ Inside you’ll learn:

  • The 10 changes that made the biggest difference for my IBS
  • What I’d stop doing immediately if I could go back
  • The mindset shift most men miss that keeps them stuck

⚠️ Most important: #7 and #8 are the MOST critical for IBS — if you only take two things from this episode, take those.

Thanks for listening.
