  • Living Life To The Fullest Despite Having Severe Chronic Illnesses

    In this episode, we have Dani Fusaro. @dani_fusaro

    Her journey with chronic illness started in 2015 when she was diagnosed with a severe chronic infection and postural orthostatic tachycardia syndrome. 

    Feeling underdiagnosed, she sought further answers to her symptoms and was eventually diagnosed with Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome, Mast Cell Activation Syndrome, Gastroparesis, Spinal Instability, and an immune deficiency called Selective Antibody Deficiency.

    Despite her circumstances, Dani is living life to the fullest. Dani founded “Days With Dani Nicole”, where she shows others how she is creating a life she’s proud of while managing complex health issues.

    She’s a physical therapist, chronic illness mindset and lifestyle coach, content creator, and model.

  • Lindsay’s Recovery Journey From Lyme and Other Co-Infections Through Brain Re-Training Neuroplasticity

    Lindsay’s story of chronic illness began as a teen when she tested positive for Epstein-Barr virus. While studying to be a physician assistant in South America, She fell ill to various parasites that kept her fatigued with gut issues after returning to the U.S.

    During a trip to the Redwoods, a tick bite unleashed the “perfect storm” — a build up of biological and environmental toxins due to years of exposure.

    She tested positive for Lyme disease, multiple parasites, systemic candidiasis, and other co-infections.

    Her doctors told her to make herself comfortable—that her diagnoses were something she'd have to deal with for the rest of her life. But she rejected this.

    I began reading about the brain's ability to change—a concept referred to as neuroplasticity—and made the decision to begin brain retraining.

    Once she begin to master this process and learned how to calm the stress response, her symptoms didn’t just improve...they began to disappear and within 8 months, she was totally better

    Fast forward to 2018, Lindsay founded Vital-Side - a neuroplasticity based healing program that helps chronically ill or stressed people go from fight-flight-or freeze to rest-and-digest

    This is a really exciting subject for me to talk about

  • Carly Brown's Journey To Healing Thyroid Cancer Without Surgery

    In this episode, I’m excited to have Carly Brown (@carlyloveskale) on the show. Carly’s greatest influences growing up were from her Catholic Italian grandparents who lived around the corner from her and brought the whole family together for big pasta dinners on Sunday afternoon.

    She was carrying 20 extra pounds with skin inflamed, and felt more like a prisoner in her own body. Carly became a vegetarian in an effort to get her health back on track and gain control of her body and appetite…and  she did. She even went on a 3-month trip to India to fulfill her dreams, and volunteered in a reforestation village to run a kitchen and fed 30+ people who lived there.

    After the retreat she built her own businesses, and events based on wellness and holistic health; and in a sudden turn of events, Carly got diagnosed with Thyroid cancer. 


    This Intro is not enough to summarize her journey but tune in to this episode to learn about her amazing journey to healing.

  • How Dr. Stephanie Healed & Overcame Panic Attacks, IBS, Gut Infections, Celiac Disease and More

    In this episode, we have Dr. Stephanie Canestraro. Stephanie suffered since she was a child with multiple undiagnosed food sensitivities due to gut infections that she did not know she had, and unfortunately that no doctors looked into. This went on for so long it eventually turned into microvilli damage or Celiac disease.

    This led to a lack of nutrient absorption and leaky gut which turned into a full-blown inflammatory nervous system attack. This had doctors investigating for Multiple Sclerosis and many other scary causes for neurodegeneration…eventually they called it “Benign Fasciculation Syndrome” 

    She also experienced full-blown panic attacks, hair fall, and gastrointestinal urgencies.

    Stephanie took things into her own hands and spent thousands of hours and hundreds of thousands of dollars in education to figure it out, get a better gut-brain association, and soothe her destroyed insides.

  • How Dr. Jaban Moore Became Symptom Free From Lyme Disease

    In this episode, we have Dr Jaban Moore - @drjabanmoore

    Dr. Moore’s passion for restoring health through a multi-therapeutic approach came from a young age when his mother was diagnosed with Diabetes after a 3-year struggle trying to figure out what was causing his health to decline. 

    Through this experience, Dr. Moore found his mission to discover the root cause of a condition so that the progression can be stopped so the next person doesn’t have to go through a story like his.

    During chiropractic school when his own health journey began he started to decline physically rapidly with no known cause at the age of 25. Over the next year, he searched for answers with many different doctors. He was experiencing fatigue, joint pain, and low testosterone. After not finding many answers from several doctors he was at a conference of functional medicine doctors. It was there he met one who suggested the possibility of Lyme disease. After some testing and further investigation, Dr. Moore was found to be positive for Lyme. 

    This began his journey of learning how to treat Lyme; and after consulting several doctors and trying many treatments, Dr.Moore found relief and has been symptom-free for over 5 years now.
