Taylored Talks

So far on this podcast, we've talked about everything from holistic dentistry to prebiotics to the microbiome. I want to take a step back in today's episode and address the basics. Sometimes, we get lost in the weeds of the nuance and details we forget the forest though the trees and may be overlooking some of the simplest but most profound habits to living our best life.

I had another topic originally planned for this week but after visiting with my holistic dentist, I felt the urge and responsibility to share my experience with you. Holistic dentistry as the name suggests takes into account more than just what's in your mouth and some issues could have underlying causes with your jaw.

We have an epidemic that no one is talking about. Only 12% of individuals are metabolically adapted meaning they are sufficiently using both fat and carbs for energy among other metabolic functions… that means 88% are maladapted. No one is talking about this. We are though today with my very first guest Dr. Halie Schoff and we get into more than just the above topic. We dive into why nose to tail is important, why knowing where your food comes from is vital, and so much more to live your optimal lifestyle.

Your problem might be right under your nose… or in your carpet, walls, or basement. I'm talking about mold and mold is a topic I immensely enjoy covering because it's most certainly not talked about enough. The repercussions if left unchecked to mold exposure can lead to dire consequences and you deserve to know the truth.

Much like in management or any other aspect of life, support is far superior to micromanagement and your microbiome is no exception. Today, we'll be discussing what that micromanagement actually looks like, specifically the role of probiotics and prebiotics. Buckle up because I don't hold back and take notes so you can learn to optimally support your microbiome and not micromanage it.

This conversation rarely occurs when visiting your doctor's office, discussing options to "managing your menstrual cycle." Hormonal birth control's original use is far from what it is used for today and the potential side effects are STAGGERING to say the least. You know me I want you to be your own advocate for your health and that begins with knowledge and awareness.

We are talking Irritable Bowel Syndrome or IBS for short today and I hope the title grabbed your attention because this topic is one I love to cover and by that I mean debunking the diagnosis. IBS only needs symptoms to reach a "diagnosis" and it comes from a process of elimination and not actually pinpointing what's actually going on. If you know me, this annoys me to not end which is part of the reason why I left the hospital setting and I hope through today's episode you'll understand the concept of IBS from a better lens.

I am about to share with you a period of my life that gives me a lot of anxiety to even think about but I know I am called to share it. Your postpartum experience is valid no matter when it starts, how long it lasts, or the intensity of how you feel. I've been asked to share my experience and that's exactly what I am going to do and be forewarned… some of it is graphic. Along with getting out of an abusive relationship I had a very traumatic experience where I couldn't be alone with my child at that point. That story plus so much more is waiting for you on the other side of the play button.

Grab a pen and paper and FYI, you may need to listen to this one multiple times. It's time we looked at "sickness" from a new perspective. Even with this episode, it's now your job to empower yourself to do more research on the topics I discuss and understand... the body is always biohacking itself. This episode will give you a great starting point to how our immune system really works.

No one is coming to save you. You must be your own advocate when it comes to your health and especially when it comes to today's topic. The statistics around informed consent and deaths due to the wrong course of action is STAGGERING. You must ask questions and you must be informed about the choices you are making.
