In this eye opening episode, I go one-on-one with 'Bachelor' alum Colton Underwood to talk about the big misconceptions still surrounding coronavirus and how he fought head on to save his own life. The former football player shares real-life details about his horrible experience with the virus and the pivotal moment he was scared for his life. While Covid-19 patients experience different types of symptoms, Colton describes his severe chills, night sweats and the panic-driven night he woke up gasping for air. The 28-year-old shares his emotional journey through the different stages of his sickness and how his girlfriend, Cassie, and her family helped play a role in his recovery process. Before Colton’s mind-boggling bout with the novel virus, he recalls growing up in the midwest playing in corn fields, going to church and how he battled social anxiety after becoming a leading man on "The Bachelor". Colton is forthcoming about being confused about his own sexual identity in the past and admits he and Cassie are still working on building their relationship. With a new podcast and an upcoming book on the horizon, he says that writing has helped him to take control of his life and see the silver lining in tough situations. It's an open and honest conversation and I'm proud to see him so brave and make an effort to educate people during these difficult times.  https://www.facebook.com/Stage29Podcasts https://twitter.com/stage29podca https://www.instagram.com/stage29podcasts   https://www.instagram.com/travisstorkmd/?hl=en https://www.facebook.com/travisstorkm   https://www.instagram.com/thedoctorstv/?hl=en https://www.facebook.com/TheDoctors/   https://www.instagram.com/coltonunderwood/?hl=en https://twitter.com/colton?ref_src=twsrc%5Egoogle%7Ctwcamp%5Eserp%7Ctwgr%5Eauthor Learn more about your ad choices.
