Lights Camera Crohn’s is Natalie Hayden’s personal platform for sharing an honest, hopeful perspective on life with Crohn’s disease and inflammatory bowel disease (IBD). Diagnosed at age 21, Natalie spent a decade managing her illness privately while working as a television news reporter and anchor. She now writes as a wife and mother of three, drawing on her experiences to encourage and support people who live with IBD.

The site features a blog about navigating chronic illness and finding moments of hope through difficult days. Its central purpose is to offer an unobstructed view of life beyond the diagnosis and help readers feel less alone. Natalie also makes herself available for speaking engagements, interviews, appearances, and media inquiries on living with Crohn’s disease. Her work and perspective have been featured by publications and outlets including TIME, Women’s Health, CBS This Morning, the Wall Street Journal, Prevention, and Everyday Health. Visitors can connect with Lights Camera Crohn’s through its website and social media channels, explore podcast interviews, and subscribe for updates.
