| How Emotional Patterns Fuel Crohn’s & Ulcerative Colitis and What to Do Instead | 19 Aug 2025 | 00:43:54 | |
Episode Summary What if your symptoms weren’t proof your body is broken… but messages pointing you toward what’s really going on? In this episode, I sit down with Daniele, who was diagnosed with Crohn’s disease in his early twenties. After years of flare-ups, procedures, and fear of the “incurable” label, he began questioning the conventional narrative that autoimmune disease means the body is attacking itself.

Notable Quotes ● My advice, even though I don't have children but can apply to anybody for anything, is - Don't focus on what has already happened. Focus on what you can do now. And let's move forward. ● Many times when you're doing the medical options with children, side effects can be problematic. And it can change things in their body that can have a longer effect than we may recognize. So the natural stuff, yes, we test to see if it's the right fit for your child, first of all, and what the dosing is, that's appropriate for your child as well. But there are no side effects to going the natural route. ● It's not good to focus on what's already happened because you were doing the best that you could with the information that you had.

| Ep. 23 - Parasites and the Full Moon: Uncovering the Health Link in the Night Sky | 06 Apr 2023 | 00:28:00 | |
Many people recognize that the full moon can certainly bring some different energies in people and animals, but what many don't realize is that a big part of this can be linked back to parasites! Parasites live within nearly every living being and can actually be the reason for symptoms! Changes in energy, mood, and behaviour are ones that are easily recognized from the outside, but they can also have a really big impact on what goes on inside our bodies too! This episode talks about many symptoms you may be dealing with that are often related to parasites! Have you ever noticed things like anxiety, cravings, sleep problems, joint pain, or even teeth grinding get worse at different times of the month? This could be a parasite problem! In North America, parasites are very rarely even considered when someone is dealing with unexplained symptoms, but they are often a contributing factor!

| Ep. 22 - When Health Problems Overlap with Identity | 03 Apr 2023 | 00:23:02 | |
Sometimes whatever health issues you may be dealing with can intertwine themselves with your identity and belief around what is or isn't possible for you! This is something Kate has definitely experienced as well. For a few years, she held herself back from reaching for things, because she thought that MS was a limiting factor holding her back. Like many other people, she'd just accepted that because of the illness, there were no other options than the struggle. BUT Amanda brings up a great point in this episode that can make a really big difference for people! What if things could be better? What if you could open your mind even a little to looking for little things you could do that might help you get even a little bit healthier? In our experience, both personally AND helping clients, this can be a turning point moment to realize that there are things you can do for yourself! Many people are in the place Kate was in waiting for someone else to show up and fix things for you, but you have way more personal power to help yourself than you may realize.

| Ep. 21 - The Hidden Impact of Toxins on Health | 27 Mar 2023 | 00:27:40 | |
We are bombarded with toxins from many different sources all of the time in every day life. In this episode, we're talking all about how toxins can get in the way of your ability to live your healthiest life. Especially after about the age of 40, many people struggle with symptoms like weight gain, and this can actually be your bodies way of trying to protect you! Toxins are stored in our fat cells! Your body has a built in detoxification system, but when the toxins become too much, the body can become overwhelmed and needs help! If you're dealing with acne in your 40s or 50s, this could also be a sign for you that your built-in detox system is not working properly! The important question is WHY? And WHAT can you do to help your system start moving towards better health? While it's not realistic to try to remove all of the toxic burden on the body, it can be really helpful to have more awareness of the different exposures you may have and work to take small steps to reduce them.

| Ep. 14 - Why Is No One Talking About This? | 25 Mar 2023 | 00:13:10 | |
Have you been just "dealing" with symptoms? This is SO common, but it doesn’t have to be the case! Allergies, period problems, weight gain, skin problems, sleep problems, sinus issues & hormone imbalances are things Kate & Amanda share their own experiences with “dealing” with in the past… BEFORE learning that symptoms are just a sign from the body that something isn’t working properly! For many people this is the case... and in some situations the solution you may have been given doesn't actually help! The typical strategy of Western Medicine is to just treat the symptoms, with little to no consideration to - what is the CAUSE of what you're dealing with? If the symptoms just keep coming back, this is where we can help! At Aligned Natural Health, we help find the cause. We test your body from head to toe, to find what areas of the body need support, and put together a custom plan to get your body back into balance.

The saying "You are the average of the 5 people you surround yourself with" is on point. One of the obstacles we've both seen with groups of any kind is that while YES, they can support you when you're struggling, there can be turbulence that comes up when you try to GROW. Ultimately, if the people you surround yourself aren't challenging you in some way to move out of your comfort zone, you will stay stuck.

| Ep. 8 - Using Quantum Nutrition Testing as a Diagnostic Tool | 25 Mar 2023 | 00:12:45 | |
In this episode we're talking more about Quantum Nutrition Testing, and why it's such a valuable diagnostic tool when it comes to finding the cause of the problems you may be dealing with. Blood work, x-rays, MRIs, etc, all serve a purpose, but most of the time these are looking at symptoms, and only looking at one small piece of the puzzle. Quantum Nutrition Testing is a whole body approach. And the main focus is asking WHY. Why is your body producing the symptoms? And what does it need to move towards better health. Natural health, holistic health takes a different viewpoint with an understanding that suppressing symptoms over and over again isn't the solution if we want to actually help people get healthier!

| Ep. 7 - Your Most Important Investment | 25 Mar 2023 | 00:18:19 | |
We invest in the things we see value in, but many forget that our health is the most valuable asset we have! Are decisions made around your health put in a box? A challenge with the "benefits" world is that it limits the options we may have around what tools are available, but there are so many other incredible ones. The world of Natural Health is full of opportunities that the mainstream methods may not offer! But, YES, many do involve making an investment in yourself. If the investment allowed you to get healthier, what value would you place on that?

Do any of these roles sound familiar? In this episode, we're talking about the Drama Triangle, which includes the 3 "roles" we may have fallen into: - the victim, the villain or the hero/rescuer For a lot of people this can be a pattern until you make the decision to break the cycle.

| Ep. 2 - Parasites - The True Cause Behind Many Common Health Issues | 25 Mar 2023 | 00:11:10 | |
With the significance of the Full Moon coming up, we thought it was a great time to put together a chat about parasites! Any time we bring up parasites in conversation, it's always amazing how many people have a story of a friend, or someone they know who has had some crazy experience with parasites! A really important thing we hope you'll get from this is understanding that the belief that many have that parasites are just in "other parts of the world" and not a north America problem is FALSE! These critters live in a large percentage of humans, and can actually be the cause behind many of the health issues we deal with. In this episode we get into a great discussion about where parasites come from, the impacts they can have on us, and more! Hope you enjoy!

| Ep. 5 - Are You Denying Your Own Selfcare? | 25 Mar 2023 | 00:16:53 | |
Do you feel like it's your "duty" or your "job" to make sure you put the needs of everyone else ahead of your own? A big problem here is: if you're not taking care of YOU, your health is often what pays the price. It may sound cliche, but taking care of YOU isn't selfish. There IS a limit to what the body can sustain, and as women, it's often not uncommon to see asking for help or setting boundaries as weakness, but this couldn't be further from the truth!

Ultimately, this is such an important consideration in your ability to take back control of your own health! Do you realize that YOUR health, literally impacts everyone around you?
