Functional Nutrition is an approach where you address not just WHAT you’re experiencing, but WHY. What’s the environment that’s created your condition(s)?

At some point in our lives, we’ve all experienced dreaded feelings of burnout. Be it from long periods of chronic stress from work, relationships, family, a pandemic, or anything that weighs heavy on us.

If you’ve ever experienced this, you’re definitely are not alone.

It’s easy to think that we’re pretty healthy when we take supplements. This is true to some extent, but taking supplements is only one part of living a healthy life, and at times, can be overprescribed.

In this episode, I highlight supplementation and share my journey of how I started taking them back in 2013 when I began my self-healing journey to improve my overall health. I share how supplements helped me achieve optimal health over the years together, along with eating a well-nourished diet, practicing healthy lifestyle habits, and taking an integrative approach with prescriptions from medical and wellness experts.

In this solo episode, I share how to get your internal self into a good place through self-awareness and mindset shifts. Oftentimes, we focus on different factors that hinder us from being successful in whatever it is we want to do when all along we’re standing in our own way.

There is no greater way of taking care of your health and your well-being than by shifting your mindset through self-awareness so you’re able to release the stress that’s been burdening you physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. This is what allows ourselves to truly feel and thrive as happy healthy people.

You’ll hear me discuss:

• Steps I took that are essential in my self-healing journey but why I never felt fully healed

• Tools that have helped me: Embodiment, Human Design, and Astrology

• How these tools have helped me

Our mindsets can be a massive roadblock on our journey to achieving whatever it is we want to do in life. If we succumb to it, then we're more likely to become less healthy (physically and mentally), and less productive.

In this episode, I share with you some recent shifts that I’ve had related to my mindset, and how it impacted my productivity, stress, and combatting burnout.

If you’re someone who’s ambitious, driven, with so many things you want to do but you’re struggling with finding the time and energy to get it done, then this episode is for you!

Episode Highlights:

• Burnout is more than just being tired

• The different types of burnout

• How to see things from a different perspective and rewriting the stories we tell ourselves

• Where do our expectations come from?

We can’t avoid stress but we can change how we respond and react to it!

A healthy gut means a healthy life.

Your gut plays a significant role in your overall health and well-being. Though resilient, the effects of chronic stress on your gut cannot be overlooked.

If you’re experiencing chronic GI discomfort a “leaky gut” might be to blame.

Join me in this episode as I deep dive into the link between your adrenals, food sensitivities, and a leaky gut and what you can do to repair and improve it.

Episode Highlights:

• What is a leaky gut and what are its symptoms

• The critical things that happen in your small intestines

• Why the good more bacteria and how its a tool to protect and promote good gut health

• Ways to reduce influencing stressors

Food sensitivities are often doubted because the reactions are not as severe as food allergies. However, there are serious consequences in eating food that you are sensitive to!

Food sensitivities are no laughing matter and can be harmful to your health. Join me in Episode 139 as I provide important information about food intolerance, certain foods I’m personally intolerant of, and solutions you can start implementing to address them.

Do you have a type of food that you are sensitive to, or do you know someone who has it? Be sure to listen to this episode, take notes, and share.
