Today on the SuperFeast podcast, Mason chats to holistic health coach and nutrition response testing practitioner Vanessa Fitzgerald about her healing journey with addiction, Orthorexia, Hashimoto's, and navigating her platform as a wellness influencer. What I loved most about this conversation was Vanessa's realness, discussing everything from her 13-year Adderall (prescription amphetamine) addiction to the pervasiveness of Orthorexia among people working in the wellness industry. Her candid approach to wellness is something Vanessa's known for, often using her influencer platform to talk about the uncomfortable truths that come with all facets of mind/body healing. Vanessa opens up about her work as a holistic wellness practitioner and why she's so passionate about helping others heal themselves from addiction, PCOS, mental illness, and auto-immune, the way she did herself. Make sure you tune in for this authentic conversation.

Mase and Vanessa discuss:

-Adderall detoxing.

-Autoimmune healing.

-Perfectionism burnout.

-Addiction and withdrawal.

-Healing the gut; food as medicine.
