You’ve probably heard people talking about gut health—but what does that really mean, and why is it so important?

In this episode of Isn’t She Powerful, I’m joined by functional medicine dietician Brittany Carpenter to break down everything you need to know about your gut and how to take care of it.

We dive into the basics of gut health, the signs your gut might be out of balance, and the most effective steps you can take today to start feeling better from the inside out. Brittany also shares valuable insight on the role of probiotics (and how to choose the right one), how your lifestyle habits impact your gut, and what it actually means to repopulate good gut bacteria.

If you’ve been feeling bloated, sluggish, or just off—this conversation is your starting point for healing and clarity.

In this episode, we cover:

  • What “gut health” really means (and why it matters more than you think)
  • Common signs your gut health might be suffering
  • Simple, effective habits to improve your gut health right away
  • The role of probiotics—when to take one and how to choose a good one
  • How your sleep, stress, and movement affect your gut
  • What good gut bacteria is and how to rebuild a healthy microbiome

Whether you're brand new to gut health or looking to deepen your understanding, this episode is packed with practical tips and empowering education.
