Ep. 19: How I set my business (and clients) up for success while on maternity leave with Dr. Heather06 Sep 202200:24:13

Are you set up to achieve your highest grossing month while also on maternity leave?

 

In this episode of the Love Your Gut Podcast, I talk about how becoming a mother changed my business, and the importance of investing in yourself first.

 

My mindset was so wrong that 2 years before i had my daughter I actually got a job so that I would have maternity leave - instead of investing in systems and processes to create a sustainable business. I started changing my mindset the day after my daughter was born and I realized that I didn't want to go back to working the way that I was before.

 

Whether you invest in my program or someone else's, this will not happen by accident.

Ep. 15: Trusting your gut, challenging your mindset and moving past gut symptoms with Chelsea Haines19 Jul 202200:53:04

How deeply do you trust your gut?

 

In this episode of the Love Your Gut Podcast, I talk to Chelsea Haines about trusting your gut, de-stigmatizing menstrual cycles, and changing our mindsets on a subconscious level.

 

Recently featured "The Gut Health Coach for Entrepreneurs" by Yahoo! Finance, Chelsea Haines has a special way of helping high-performing people heal. She doesn't claim to be the "guru" or know better than you. In fact, her entire mission is the complete opposite: to remind YOU that you are the only person that has ever lived in your body, you truly know exactly what you need, and that you, in fact, are not "broken" or "crazy" for feeling how you feel. She is here to remind you that your symptoms are simply messages that something is off, and that healing GETS to be easy (a paradox in today's modern system.)

Her formal bachelor's degree in psychology combined with extensive training and certifications from ICF accredited Health Coach Institute, plus over 500+ hours of yoga teacher training (as well as a God-given gift of deep empathy and life-altering experiences at a young age, such as abandonment, bankruptcy, suicide, and divorce) has set her up to be able to hold space for deep self-reflection and transformation, without judgment.

She has successfully combined the latest studies and science of gut health and behavioral psychology with her deep emotional and spiritual knowing to heal from autoimmune disease and experience a life of true health and abundance... and is ready to show you exactly how to do the same.

She is also a wife to a worldwide seafarer. They live happily with their kitten, Lily, in Panamá, Central America, where she runs her health coaching business with a view of the Pacific Ocean.

 

Tune in to hear more about making changes to become 1% better every day and creating sustainable results.

Ep. 6: 3 Reasons why your SIBO keeps coming back17 May 202200:27:29

What is SIBO? SIBO is small intestinal bacterial overgrowth. It can cause unwanted bloating, fatigue, constipation, diarrhea, gas, nutritional deficiencies and more. And it’s one of the most common reasons that clients are experiencing their digestive symptoms. The traditional method for treating SIBO is to take antibiotics for 2-4 weeks to "kill" the SIBO and potentially to do an elimination diet. But this standard of care does not work for a couple reasons: 1) It’s not addressing the root cause of the SIBO 2) It is not empowering you as the client to understand how to prevent it from coming back 3) It is only addressing the small intestine 
 
 SIBO is a symptom, not a root cause like you may have been told.


In this episode of Love Your Gut podcast, if you feel completely stuck with your SIBO I want to give you some insight as to why your SIBO keeps coming back, what you can do about that, and then some actionable tips at the end of what you can do now while you're working on actually clearing your SIBO. So if you feel like you've tried all the antibiotics, all the herbals all the diets, everything this episode is for you.  Tune in to hear more!
