Overcoming Fear of Eating with IBS

Written By Marica Gaspic

Eating for people with IBS Is a terrifying thought! 

Right !! You know it!

I totally get it! But surprisingly am eating and feeding myself without thinking too hard, without fear of what might happen… 

Getting there took steps:

Learning about my triggers

Finding foods that agree with me 

Finding foods I really enjoy eating

Figuring it out on my schedule 

Mindset- deciding I need to feed myself

Planning out meals 

Now it has become a habit where I don’t think too hard, it is routine.

Going from feeling sick, feeling fearful to feeling great is an example of change in habits. Taking steps then built on those steps to add exercise, and stress management. It was a watershed of moving in the right direction towards living life positively with IBS!

Marica Gaspic

Living with IBS can quietly take over your life — not just through pain and bloating, but through the constant uncertainty, loss of confidence, and fear of not being able to trust your own body.

I help high-performing women with IBS move from symptom-chasing to true physiological stability — by understanding IBS as what modern gastroenterology defines it to be: a disorder of gut–brain interaction involving the nervous system, microbiome, immune function, and stress physiology.

As a pharmacist and gut health coach — and as someone who has personally lived with IBS — I bring both clinical expertise and lived understanding to the work we do together. My clients don’t just “manage” IBS. They rebuild trust in their body, regain energy and confidence, and create a sustainable system of support that fits their real life.

This is not about restriction or short-term fixes.

It’s about building a body that finally makes sense.

Why Work With Me

Personal Experience

I have lived with IBS and successfully stabilized my own health — giving me deep insight into both the emotional and physiological realities of this condition.

Clinical Expertise

As a pharmacist, I bring evidence-based understanding of human physiology, gut–brain signaling, microbiome science, and medication interactions into every plan I create.

Proven Results

I have guided women through sustainable, personalized recovery frameworks that improve symptoms, restore energy, and dramatically elevate quality of life.

Together, we build a personalized, sustainable gut health strategy that supports your body, your lifestyle, and your long-term wellbeing — so you can live with calm, clarity, and confidence again.
