Behind the Pouch with MJ Boaretto Pureza

Behind the Pouch speaks to MJ Boaretto Pureza (@emjayuc) from Sydney, Australia. A graphic designer, illustrator and artist by profession, she is another ostomate who has not let her stoma define her but embraced life since undergoing her stoma surgery back in 2017. She uses her colourful and playful art and illustrations to help raise awareness and take a step towards reducing the stigma associated with ostomies and IBD.
