Love Your Gut

Ep. 87: What Grit, Belief, and Safety Have to Do with Gut Healing (& Business Building)


Listen Later

What if the biggest thing holding you back from healing isn’t your diet, your labs, or your supplement routine, but your beliefs about what’s possible?

In this episode, Dr. Heather shares a deeply personal look at how she went from being the “shy girl” no one expected much from, to struggling with gut issues and exhaustion, to finally building a thriving practice, all by learning to stop defending her limitations.

You’ll learn how the stories you tell yourself shape your physiology, why your nervous system can’t heal when it feels unsafe, and the small mindset and lifestyle shifts that can completely change your trajectory.

If you’ve ever caught yourself thinking, “Must be nice for her…” — this one’s for you.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

  • The difference between limitation and belief, and how both impact healing
  • The science behind how your thoughts create neural pathways that shape your body’s response
  • Real stories of fear, grit, and consistency from Dr. Heather’s own healing and business journey
  • How to retrain your nervous system to feel safe enough to heal
  • Five practical steps to start shifting from comparison to curiosity (and bring joy back into the process)
  • Why the most successful clients aren’t the ones with the most resources, but instead they’re the ones who can hold the vision that healing is possible
