In this episode, we have Allison Rassp from Hope with Hashimoto’s

In 2013, Allison suddenly developed an onset of mysterious symptoms. She gained 15-20 pounds out of nowhere, was sleeping 16 hour days and her hair was falling out like crazy. Allison felt depressed, anxious, and thanks to brain fog, she could barely formulate sentences.

Allison was slapped with the label of “subclinical hypothyroid” and was sent on a merry way for the next few years. In 2016, she was finally diagnosed with Hashimoto’s Disease after her TPO antibodies were tested.

Fast forward to today, Allison was able to reverse almost all of her Hashimoto’s symptoms. She still has Hashimoto’s Disease on paper, but she chooses not to let the numbers define her.

In this week’s episode, we have Needhee Rathore - @hypothyroid365

Needhee is the founder Hypothyroid Fat-Loss Academy™ that helps women with Hypothyroidism lose weight.

This episode is a special one because this is the first time that we’ll tackle this chronic illness in this podcast called Hypothyroidism.

Needhee is a daughter of an immigrant who grew up in California. At the age of 17, her mother noticed something on her neck which she shrugged off. After a year, the mass was actually a tumor that grew to be larger than a large egg. It was eventually diagnosed to be thyroid cancer, and everything went downhill from there.

Her thyroid cancer opened the gates to other serious chronic illnesses like Hashimoto’s, Hypothyroidism, depression, and losing her father in the middle of and so much more.

But she did not lose hope. She was able to overcome her chronic illness, get beyond it, and thrive.

In this episode, we have Melanie Atkinson

Melanie suffered from debilitating eczema, asthma and allergies. Stuck in the medical model she tried every treatment under the sun but things only got worse. She was perpetually exhausted and in deep despair at numerous points in her teens. 

It was only when she visited a Naturopathic Nutritionist on a yoga retreat at age 27 that she truly understood why her body was so sick and what to do about it. This inspired her to study Nutritional Healing and Naturopathy, and  began working deeply on her health through dietary changes, supplements and naturopathic techniques and finally woke up feeling better.

After some time, Melanie realised that working on her physical body wasn’t enough and spent the first 27 years of her life numbing and suppressing my feelings. She eventually added a daily kundalini yoga practice and then discovered Theta Healing. 
 
Over the past 6 years, Melanie developed The MA Method based on her own health journey. This protocol goes beyond just food and supplementation where she will teach you how to use Naturopathy and Neuroscience to heal yourself and to hear what your body, mind and soul needs.

On today’s episode, we have Dani Fagan - @mytms_journey

In 2015, Dani experienced the onset of crippling back pain that debilitated her for around 3 years. She consulted a lot of doctors and got diagnosed with disc degeneration. Dani knew that it wasn’t just simple disc degeneration and stumbled upon the work of Dr John Sarno and his 'Healing Back Pain' book, which was a game changer. 

At the time, Dani couldn't walk very far or sit upright and sometimes even had to use a wheelchair to get around. It was a long difficult road that had many ups and downs for a couple of years, but eventually, found a set of tools and techniques online that led her into a journey of self-discovery and healing. 

In her blog, “My TMS Journey”, she shares her Recovery Journey Roadmap where she outlines the six elements Dani used to achieve complete recovery from TMS.

On today’s episode, we have Donna Mazzola. 

Donna spent about 10 years in clinical practice doing medication therapy management, speaking to patients with chronic illness and was blown away by how little they knew about managing their disease through lifestyle. 

In 2015, she was diagnosed with Hashimotos. And it became her passion to understand how she was diagnosed with an autoimmune condition. 

Donna didn't know who to trust and what was the right way to manage my disease, and so, she decided to embark on a journey to further her  education, by obtaining a Master's in Human Nutrition and Functional Medicine.

She started DrAutoimmunegirl to share trusted information to those suffering from Hashimoto’s. DrAutoimmunegirl is a blog with a mission to identify the root cause of disease through health and wellness and create a balance between nutrition and medicine.

On Today’s episode, we have The Mushroom Queen herself; Culinary Nutrition Expert, AHCC educator, registered dental hygienist and Host of The Medicin Podcast, Mimi Lindquist.

Mimi has been helping people prevent disease for over 10 years now, by educating and empowering individuals to be their own best health advocates. 

Her own exposure to chronic disease began at an early age when various members of her family were dealing with a wide array of issues. In a cruel twist of fate, she herself began developing chronic issues in 2017 when her life was falling apart. Through her own will & determination and tremendous amounts of research, she was able to recover and is now living an amazing life. 

Today, her primary area of disease prevention education surrounds Immune Intel AHCC + other medicinal mushrooms. 

Unfortunately there is a significant gap between the clinical research of mushrooms and the general public, so Mimi is committed to being the link between research and the public via online education, social media and her podcast, The Medicin.

On today’s show, we have Jami Emerson. Jami, like many others that we've had on the podcast before, had a seemingly very normal, healthy life with a normal trajectory only for that suddenly to be taken away when she began to develop debilitating symptoms that eventually was diagnosed as Chronic Fatigue Syndrome. 

Her life trajectory completely changed but rather than dwell on the cards that she was dealt, she vowed that she would focus on her recovery and set a crazy goal of moving to Australia and being recovered by that time.

Fast forward to today, she's living in Sydney Australia and is thriving. She has recovered from CFS (Chronic Fatigue Syndrome), and gone on to set up a number of different start-up businesses. 

In 2019, Jami founded a company called Chronic Hope, a charity organization geared toward helping those that deal with chronic illness. It’s aim is to fight the isolation of chronic illness through community, connection and awareness. Jami also hosts a podcast called Sound Of Hope and something coming up called the House of Hope.
