Take Back My Brain

In this episode, Laurie Hammer speaks with Dr. Monica Jauregui about gut health and the root causes of digestive issues like IBS and SIBO. Dr. Jauregui explains how small intestinal bacterial overgrowth, impaired gut motility, and increased intestinal permeability (leaky gut) can contribute to a wide range of symptoms beyond digestion, including fatigue, brain fog, and chronic inflammation. The conversation highlights a root-cause approach to healing the gut and improving overall health.

In this episode, I’m sharing a featured interview I did for a summit hosted by Dr. David Jockers, where I was invited to speak about amino acid therapy and mental health. I walk through how neurotransmitter imbalances, blood sugar regulation, and everyday lifestyle habits impact anxiety, depression, and brain function—and how targeted nutrition and amino acids may help support balance and healing.

In this episode of Take Back My Brain, Laurie Hammer shares the story of how she was diagnosed with a rare, aggressive cancer and why she chose not to agree with that diagnosis.

Today, 19 years later, she is cancer-free.

This is not a story about ignoring reality. It’s a story about standing on the Word of God when everything around you says something different.

“I will not die but live, and declare the works of the Lord.” — Psalm 118:17 “By His stripes we are healed.” — Isaiah 53:5

In this conversation, Laurie is joined by Buffy Ruthardt to break down what the Bible actually says about healing—and how that truth applies to your life today.

Together, they discuss:

• What Scripture says about healing (not tradition—truth)

• Why healing is part of what Jesus already paid for

• The role of faith and renewing your mind

• How to stand firm when fear and outside voices try to take over

• Why you don’t have to accept what God never gave you

This is a conversation about spirit, soul, and body, and how true healing involves all three.

If you are facing a diagnosis, walking through fear, or questioning what you believe about healing, this episode will ground you in truth and point you back to the Word.
