#49: Healing My Gut in Real Time : Symptoms, Stress, and First Steps (Part 1)22 Dec 202500:22:37

In this episode, I’m getting personal and sharing what’s been going on with my own gut health over the past year, including reflux, constipation, bloating, and digestive discomfort, and why I’ve decided to take a deeper look under the surface as we head into the new year.

I walk you through my symptoms, what I’ve already done to improve them, and the exact next steps I’m taking to uncover and address the root causes so I can fully heal - not just manage things.

If you’ve been feeling discouraged, stuck, or wondering why symptoms keep lingering despite “doing all the right things,” this episode is here to remind you that you’re not broken, and you’re definitely not alone.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • Why managing symptoms isn’t the same as fully healing

  • What improvements are possible with foundational diet and lifestyle changes

  • When it makes sense to dig deeper with functional lab testing

  • How I approach healing as both the practitioner and the client

#39: Alginates for Reflux Relief (what the research says)06 Oct 202500:19:55

In this episode, we’re looking at alginates - the fascinating “raft” technology found in products like Gaviscon Advance and Reflux Gourmet - and what the research actually says about how they work.

Instead of changing your stomach’s chemistry like PPIs or antacids, alginates form a barrier that keeps stomach contents from pushing up into the esophagus. In this conversation, I’m unpacking how this works, what the science says, and when alginates might be most helpful for reflux relief.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
  • What alginates are and how they create a raft to block reflux events

  • How alginates compare to PPIs and antacids in research studies

  • The real-life situations where alginates can be most effective

  • Why alginates are a tool for symptom management, not a cure, and what to do if you want lasting relief

When it comes to health, there are a few non-negotiables I live by - both in my own life and with every client I work with.

#37: How Stress Fuels Reflux and Heartburn (and What to Do About It)22 Sep 202500:16:35

If your reflux, heartburn, or stomach pain always seems to flare when life gets busy or overwhelming, you’re not alone, and you’re not imagining it.

In this episode, we're diving into the science behind the stress-stomach connection and how your thoughts, emotions, and nervous system state might be the hidden reason your symptoms keep sticking around, even when you're “doing everything right.”

You'll learn how stress physically impacts digestion, how negative thought spirals can intensify symptoms, and most importantly, what you can do to break the cycle. These simple mindset shifts and nervous system strategies can create big changes in how your body feels.

In This Episode:
  • How the vagus nerve links your stress response to your digestion

  • Why stress slows motility, reduces stomach acid, and causes reflux

#26: Uncovering What Your Stomach Symptoms Really Mean30 Jun 202500:14:04

In today's episode, we’re flipping the script on how you view your symptoms. Instead of fearing the burning, nausea, or stomach pain, you'll learn how to listen to them.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • Why your symptoms aren’t the enemy (hint: they’re communication from your body).

  • How to start identifying symptom patterns and root causes.

  • A mindset shift that helps you stay grounded during symptom flares.

#25: The One Thing Most Stomach Healing Plans Miss23 Jun 202500:15:33

You could be doing everything right - perfect diet, best supplements, most strategic protocols - but if your body is stuck in stress mode, your stomach won’t heal.

In this episode, we’re digging into one of the most overlooked reasons why symptoms linger even when you're doing all the “right” things: your nervous system. If your body doesn’t feel safe, digestion shuts down. And no amount of supplements or diet changes will override that.

This is the episode to listen to if you’ve ever wondered why nothing seems to be working - or why your symptoms flare under pressure, stress, or overwhelm.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode:

  • Why healing can’t happen in a chronically stressed body

  • How your nervous system directly affects your ability to digest, absorb, and repair

  • Signs your nervous system may be keeping your symptoms on repeat

  • How to shift from survival mode into healing mode

Real healing doesn’t come from checking more things off your to-do list. It comes from helping your body feel safe enough to finally digest, rest, and repair. This episode shows you how to start.
