Jumping from diet to diet, pill to pill and/or protocol to protocol without relief can be exhausting.
It’s a cycle many people (maybe even you) are trapped in today.
But the truth is - in order to feel vibrant long term (which is your birthright), you need to identify the root cause(s) of YOUR suffering.
For example, breakouts can be caused by MANY things such as...
My cystic breakouts were tied to a garlic intolerance (of all things) which is why all of the other remedies I tried for YEARS (candida cleanse, lotions, microdermabrasion, face creams, etc.) didn’t help.
And why the paleo diet wasn’t enough for me to heal my skin.
In other words, different people with the same symptom may need different interventions AND sometimes lab testing can be invaluable for identifying your root issues.
It was this realization that brought me to Functional Diagnostic Nutrition (FDN). FDN is a training system that uses data-driven protocols and functional lab testing to help people identify the root cause (or causes) of their suffering.
It teaches people to identify their contributors to “metabolic chaos” AND how to systematically cultivate health.
I took this course nearly 2 years ago and it changed my life and the way I work with clients.
So if you’re someone who would love to learn what it takes to get to the root cause of your health issues OR someone who would love to learn how to take their wellness practice to the next level, please tune in to today’s podcast with the founder of FDN (and expert in functional lab testing), Reed Davis.
Here are a few of the gems you’ll learn about...
The knowledge I gained from FDN was so empowering and helpful for me and all of my clients and I sincerely hope you love this interview as much as I did.

Food quality is paramount, but it might surprise you to know WHEN you eat may be just as important. Why?

Tune into this week’s podcast with photobiology expert and founder of Ra Optics, Matt Maruca, to learn all about simple ways you can use light exposure to optimize (or negatively impact) your health. Here are a few of the fun facts you’re in for...

I think pretty much everyone today is aware that vitamin D is critical for immune (and overall) health. In fact, vitamin D deficiency has been linked to an increased risk of health issues like:
Unfortunately, MANY people today are vitamin D deficient and don’t know it.
Not to mention the fact that vitamin D supplements are not always enough.
Which is exactly why I invited Cort Christie (CEO and owner of Sperti Sunlamps) to talk all about the benefits of vitamin D and how to safely improve your levels in the comfort of your own home!
Cort has been in the therapeutic light space for over a decade and has partnered with experts like Dr. Holick (author of the Vitamin D Solution) to create the only FDA-approved at-home sun lamp that has been empirically shown to significantly raise vitamin D levels in only minutes a day!

Today people are waking up to the fact that many diseases begin in the gut.
And while changing the foods we eat, the water we drink and taking supplements can make a world of difference for some people, it’s just not enough for everyone.
Which is why today I want to share the fascinating work of Dr. Jason Klop regarding a breakthrough gut-healing therapy called Fecal Microbiota Transplant, or FMT.
(And YES, it does involve what you think it does...)
Now FMT is clearly not for everyone, but recent research and clinical experience has shown it can be INCREDIBLY beneficial for certain populations like…
In fact, research out of Arizona State University revealed that those with autism who received FMT experienced an 80% reduction in digestive symptoms and a 40% reduction in autism-related symptoms like hyperactivity, sleep issues and cognition.
Pretty impressive, right?
And that’s just the tip of the iceberg. Tune in now to hear more about the incredible benefits of FMT and several other unique gut-healing strategies with Dr. Klop. Here are some of my favorite takeaways...

Many of us suffer from symptoms and mental health struggles we can’t explain.
According to new research, this may be due to inherited family trauma.
In fact, recent research has revealed we can inherit trauma (just like we do our hair or eye color) that can cause measurable changes in our DNA for several generations.
Which means you may be feeling or behaving in a certain way, because your parents or grandparents experienced a traumatic event rather than because there is something wrong with YOU.
If this idea is as liberating and fascinating for you as it was for me, please tune in to this week’s podcast with award winning author of It Didn’t Start with You, Mark Wolynn!
We discuss the science behind inherited family trauma, how to identify it and (most importantly) what you can do today to overcome it.

Anxiety. Resentment. Sadness. Overwhelm.
Feelings so many of us are experiencing right now.

It’s called tapping, or the Emotional Freedom Technique (EFT).
EFT has been empirically shown to reduce cortisol (stress hormone) levels more than talk therapy AND reduce cravings for foods like chocolate.
So if you’re feeling exhausted, overwhelmed, sad, and want to learn about a simple way to feel more relaxed anytime, anywhere, please check out today’s podcast with co-owner of The Tapping Solution, Alex Ortner.
