Stronger than Autoimmune

By: Desiree Werland
  • Summary

  • As an autoimmune warrior myself, I understand living with autoimmunity isn't easy. You are not alone, this podcast is to give hope to living with a chronic illness. I will interview individuals living with autoimmune disease along with experts, and businesses to help provide knowledge, and hope. As a health coach, I understand there is no cure for autoimmune disease but creating small changes like diet, stress management, movement and more can influence on how we feel. Join me to being Stronger than Autoimmune!

  • From Tech Titan to Autoimmune Warrior: Brian Bentow’s Journey to Healing Through Food
    Oct 23 2024

    Today, I’m thrilled to welcome Brian Bentow, a tech entrepreneur, software architect, and author who has an incredible story of resilience and innovation. With a career spanning leadership roles in tech giants like Microsoft and startups that have collectively exited for over $700 million, Brian has made a name for himself in the world of healthcare IT and software development. But after being diagnosed with Crohn’s disease at 35, Brian shifted his focus to healing himself through the Autoimmune Protocol (AIP) Diet. Now, as the founder of ⁠Get Saucy⁠, he’s on a mission to bring delicious, diet-friendly sauces and seasonings to the world, helping others on their own health journeys. We’re excited to dive into Brian’s inspiring transition from tech to wellness and learn how he’s using food to make an impact on the autoimmune community. Thank you for listening Autoimmune warriors.
