Episode 207: Emotions and Trauma as Drivers of Thyroid Dysfunction


Listen Later

Are you stuck in "thyroid purgatory" - optimized labs but persistent symptoms? The missing piece might be emotional. In this powerful conversation, Dr. Eric sits down with Licensed Professional Counselor and Board-Certified Art Therapist Kate King to explore the hidden emotional roots of thyroid dysfunction that conventional medicine completely ignores. What You'll Discover:
  • How ancestral trauma and intergenerational patterns literally encode themselves in your cellular metabolism
  • Why your thyroid might be your body's intelligent way of protecting you from feeling too much
  • The difference between managing stress and actually reprogramming your stress response patterns
  • How the Cell Danger Response keeps your thyroid stuck in protection mode
  • Practical steps to shift from emotional survival patterns to thyroid recovery
  • Why accountability and inner work are as crucial as diet and supplements for healing
  • And more...

Kate King's experience is sourced from her 17+ year background as a Licensed Professional Counselor, Board-Certified Art Therapist, and award-winning author. As the founder and owner of The Radiant Life Project, Kate's mission is to help individuals heal their inner wounds so that they can positively contribute to the evolving collective. She teaches how to ignite your inner spark with psychology-based personal growth and relationship books, inspirational public speaking, creative consulting, and individual and group coaching. Kate's work is where psychology meets spirit, where creativity meets clarity, and where burnout meets renewal. Kate's impactful resources, tools, and practices provide an accessible entry point into a life of greater authenticity, fulfillment, and illumination.
