In episode 18 of this season of Designing the Best YOU! Vennessa brings together the correlation of the dreaded brain fog and Hashimoto's.

Many of Vennessa's clients with Hashimoto's complain of weight gain, fatigue and brain fog, but what most don't realize is the thyroid's relationship to your metabolism - it's QUITE complicated. Other hormones and proteins also come into play. And Hashimoto's says it all: we are tired, wired, fat and foggy...right!?

Vennessa dives right into what Hashimoto's is and what YOU can control in the in-between moments to banish brain fog and live your BEST life WITH your disease.

But don't stop there - we are in this together, so please do not hesitate to reach out to Vennessa or others for the support you need and deserve.
