What Happens in Vagus

In this episode, Dr. Steph chats with Dane Johnson, Founder & CEO of Crohns Colitis Lifestyle, who dives straight into the personal story that fuels his mission today. Dane shares how his life-threatening health journey, marked by a lack of support and resources, became the catalyst for his work in helping others. Reflecting on his childhood, he reveals that what seemed like a typical upbringing was, in hindsight, detrimental to his health, as he had limited exposure to natural and healthier lifestyle choices. He walks us through the repetitive cycle of doctor visits and medication changes that offered temporary relief but ultimately led to a pivotal moment when he decided to take control of his health.

Dane emphasizes the importance of consistency over perfectionism in the path to better health, stressing that the first critical step is reducing toxic exposure. As the CEO of his health, he has developed a comprehensive program called S.H.I.E.L.D., which he explains in detail—what it stands for and how it works. Throughout the conversation, they explore the root causes of chronic disease, the power of self-empowerment, and several essential keys to living a truly healthy life.
