Are your gut and your mood more connected than you think? Absolutely—and today we're unpacking why.

In this empowering episode of the Natalie Tysdal Podcast, I'm joined by Sylvia Hall, founder of Lifted Naturals, who shares her personal journey of postpartum mood swings, digestive struggles, and the surprising healing power of gut health.

 

Together, we explore the science-backed links between the gut and brain—and how you can harness that knowledge to boost your mood, resilience, and energy naturally.

What You'll Learn:

• The science behind the gut-brain connection—and why over 90% of serotonin is made in your gut

 

• How stress, poor sleep, and even pesticides disrupt your microbiome and mental health

 

• Easy, everyday habits to support your gut and emotional well-being (think: sunlight, routine, and nutrition)

 

• Why not all probiotics are created equal—and how to choose the right strains for mood support

 

• Family-friendly tips for improving kids' gut health and emotional balance

 

• Plus, Sylvia shares real-life stories from the Lifted Naturals community—and a powerful reminder that self-awareness is the first step toward healing.

 

Whether you're navigating anxiety, burnout, or just want to feel like yourself again, this episode gives you real tools—not trends—for mind-body wellness.
