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.

Getting adequate rest and sleep is essential to maintain your health and well-being. Though it might sound simple, it’s not easy to do.

If you're like me who's struggled with sleep then this episode will help you get an idea of what's keeping you from getting good rest and what you should do about it.

Join me for this episode as I talk about the key to adrenal recovery, rest, and the importance of sleep. Find out what happens when you sleep and how to embrace rituals to help you get in a state of rest.

Adrenal fatigue is used to define a number of symptoms related to your adrenal glands. Though its not always an accepted medical term, it doesn’t mean it's not real.

Adrenal fatigue is real and it’s affecting multiple people. Join me in this episode as I give you a brief intro into what adrenal fatigue is all about, my struggles and experience with it, and my process of recovery.

In this solo episode, I want to share with you the 10 mistakes that I’ve made over the past few years especially when I learned that I had adrenal fatigue.

Recovery from adrenal fatigue is slow, challenging, and can be quite confusing, but I’m here to share the lessons I’ve learned from all those trials and errors.

I hope that by sharing this, you’ll be able to avoid those pitfalls and not make the same mistakes that I did.

In this week’s episode, we:

• Explore the dangers of perfectionism when it comes to healthy living

• Examine how we came to form our perceptions on what perfect health

• Why ebbs and flows of health are to be expected and showing yourself grace through it…especially during a pandemic!

In this week’s episode, we examine realities vs perceptions when it comes to how we’re consistent with the basics of health and wellness.

Are your daily habits matching what you think they are, or what you want them to be?

You’ll hear me discuss:

• What the basics of health and wellness are

• Why it's important to do self-audits and assess how consistent you are with them

• How attending to these simple, but often overlooked practices can resolve health concerns

And you’ll hear me share my experiences and challenges with each of them.

After a mini-hiatus, I’m back with a new episode where you’ll hear me share my thoughts on:

• Learning about racism

• Exploring diversity in wellness

• Simplifying health

What do you do when you’ve tried all of the conventional and holistic strategies but yet your health issues haven’t completely been resolved? Sometimes deep inner work is required, especially if you’re struggling with Adrenal Fatigue and burnout. But if you’re someone who just can’t slow down, what’s the likelihood of you taking the time to explore this inner work?

Quarantine life has given me the time to do this inner work that quite frankly, I may have never done otherwise, and some of that inner work has been done with the help of my dear friend and returning guest, Sadie Adams. Sadie joined me in Episode 117 where we talked about nurturing natural beauty through calm presence & authentic self-expression.

In this episode, Sadie returns to the show sharing insights and wisdom on how to reclaim holistic wisdom. Sadie draws from her vast education, wisdom, and her many gifts to help people self-heal with:

• Repatterning

• Embodiment

• Integrating the body, mind, and spirit

Using modalities like breathwork, meditation, and movement, she helps people come back into their bodies to reclaim their presence, choices, and freedom.

You’ll hear how she’s helping me:

• Repattern and release a “need to / have to” mindset which in turn helps me with relaxation, tapping into my parasympathetic system to ultimately help me sleep better

• Relieve aches and pains in my body using breathwork and active movement 

• Address long unresolved pain from past running injuries that I’ve battled for over a decade

Her work is unlike anything I’ve experienced before, and if you’re someone who’s made the diet and lifestyle changes but your issues haven’t fully resolved, then I urge you to consider exploring the deep kind of interwork that Sadie offers to help you along your healing journey.
