Meet Eitan!

This week's episode was SO FUN! Robin and I got to record in the same room after not getting to meet up for more that 2.5 years! AND we had the joy of talking with Eitan Kling-Levine! Eitan is a young professional living with NYC and working in healthcare marketing. After growing up in the theater, he attended NYU for acting, and during senior year, got diagnosed with ulcerative colitis. This began a long road of intense sickness and treatment. After a year of complications and trying various therapies, he ultimately decided on having a three-part surgery. Following the year-long recovery, he was able to move back to NYC, and thankfully  has been able to live life to the fullest ever since. Most recently, he got engaged, and is excited to marry his life partner in July 2023. We talked about living and dating in NYC (and how hard it may be to find a bathroom!), we talked about his surgery experience, the French healthcare system, his foray into legislative and personal advocacy, his career moves, talking about sexuality with your GI, and our mutual love of Sauvignon Blanc.
