Meet the Host!

Natasha Trehan is a third year student at the University of Ottawa studying Translational and Molecular She was diagnosed with Juvenile Idiopathic Arthritis at the age of 13. As a teenager, she felt alone and was unable to find the instant resources to connect with other people with similar lived experiences. After joining a support group 2 years into her journey and tons of discussion with other youth as well as the similarities of topics that were never shed light on, The Take a Pain Check Podcast was founded in March 2021 to ensure that young patients feel supported in every step of the way. Throughout her journey, she has developed a lot of resilience and also learned to advocate for not only for herself but others. She has learned that research, innovation, support and connection is vital. She aspires to pursue a career in the healthcare field. She started this organization to make sure that no one else with an autoimmune condition has to go through this tough journey alone. She is super excited to continue on this journey with her amazing team and medical advisory board!
