Welcome back to the Dr. Kinney Show! This week, I’m excited to have Carrie Chojnowski, a certified holistic gut health coach, back on the podcast. Carrie’s passion for empowering women to thrive shines as she shares her journey from struggling with chronic health issues to becoming a top gut health expert. If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by food sensitivities, hormonal imbalances, or gut-related issues, this episode will equip you with the knowledge to reclaim your health.
We dive deep into the science behind gut health and how it impacts everything from mood to hormones. Carrie explains why having the right gut bacteria is crucial and how stress, diet, and lifestyle choices can throw your body out of balance. Plus, she shares practical tips and discusses her holistic approach to helping women find relief and live vibrant, healthy lives.
In Today’s Episode We Discuss:
Taking care of your gut can transform your health, and Carrie’s insights will inspire you to take action. Whether you're dealing with hormonal imbalances, stress-related symptoms, or just want to feel your best, this episode is full of valuable information. Tune in to learn how to support your gut and unlock your body’s natural healing potential.
Carrie is passionate, full of positive energy, and excited to empower you with tools to feel your best. Always athletic and health-conscious, Carrie hit a wall of defeat many years ago after the development of many health issues that made it difficult for her to be the mother she wanted to be. Though medical interventions and therapies helped ease some of her symptoms, she did not find full relief until she discovered the immense impact of gut health and inflammation on the body. As Hippocrates said nearly 2500 years ago, “All disease begins in the gut,” and Carrie now believes that thriving in health is truly possible if you listen to the signals your body was designed to give you and address them at the root. Carrie has a master’s degree in speech-language pathology and advanced certification in listening & spoken language, is in the top 5% of ambassadors in a renowned holistic health company, and is a certified holistic gut health coach. She’s been helping countless people, mostly women in their 40s+, go from surviving to thriving. When you can tend to the gut ecosystem in connection to each of the four areas of health ~ mental, emotional, physical, and spiritual ~ you have the opportunity to experience ultimate health and a new faith in your body.

Why do you still feel drained, even after a full night's sleep? Could it be 'Cortisol Debt'?
Welcome back to the Dr. Kinney show! In this episode, we’re exploring the critical role that rest plays in healing, with a particular focus on adrenal fatigue and burnout. I like to explain cortisol as the body’s 'currency.' Much like financial budgeting, rest helps us 'earn' energy, while our daily activities and stress 'spend' it.
When we don't get enough rest, we end up in what I call 'cortisol debt,' and that’s when symptoms like fatigue, anxiety, and even skin issues start to appear. I really want to emphasize how important it is to incorporate restorative practices like meditation and acupuncture into your routine. These practices help the body recover and manage stress more effectively.
Throughout the episode, I’ll also be breaking down the body’s stress response and explaining exactly how prolonged stress leads to adrenal fatigue. My hope is that by the end of this episode, you’ll feel inspired to prioritize relaxation and rethink some of your habits to reduce stress in your life.
In Today’s Episode We Discuss
· Understanding Cortisol and Energy
· The Concept of Cortisol Debt
· Symptoms of Adrenal Fatigue
· The Importance of Rest and Meditation
· The Stress Response Explained
· Long-term effects of Chronic Stress
· Rebalancing Your Body's Energy
It’s important to remember your energy is like currency, and by incorporating more rest, meditation, and even acupuncture, you can help your body stay balanced and strong. As you move forward, my advice is to listen to your body. Prioritize relaxation, give yourself permission to rest, and make self-care a non-negotiable part of your routine.

Ever wonder how stress might be wreaking havoc on your digestive health - and what you can do to fix it?
Welcome back to the Dr. Kinney show! In this episode, we’re looking at the intricate relationship between stress and digestive health. I’ll talk about how stress impacts different parts of our digestive system and how it can contribute to issues like leaky gut, IBS, and reflux.
I’ll also break down the normal digestive process, highlighting why it’s so important to maintain a balanced pH in the body and how stress can throw that balance off. We’ll explore how stress-induced changes in stomach acidity can lead to malabsorption and imbalances in the microbiome, like SIBO.
To help with these issues, I’ll share some practical tips, like taking deep belly breaths and using digestive enzymes to support your digestion when you’re feeling stressed. Plus, I’ll encourage you to practice mindfulness around meals, which can do wonders for your digestive health.
In Today’s Episode We Discuss
· How Stress Significantly Impacts Digestive Health
· Looking At The Normal Digestive Process
· Impact of Stress on Digestion
· Why Deep Breathing Helps Digestion
· Common Digestive Issues from Stress
· The Way Stress Disrupts Stomach Acidity and Balance
· Tips for Managing Stress-Related Digestive Issues
Remember, while stress can significantly impact digestion, there are simple, effective ways to support your gut—like deep breathing, using digestive enzymes, and practicing mindfulness around your meals. Take care of yourself, and know that even small changes in how you manage stress can make a big difference for your digestive health.

Ever wonder whether that nagging cold or health issue means it’s time to call the doctor or if you can handle it at home?
Welcome back to the Dr. Kinney show! In this episode, we’re back with another Q&A episode! I’ve been getting some amazing feedback from all of you, and I absolutely love it when I can help answer your questions directly. We all deal with health concerns at some point—whether it's feeling under the weather or wondering if something more serious is going on—and it’s not always clear if you should head to the doctor or try managing things on your own. Trust me, I get it, and I’m here to lend a hand.
Have you ever asked yourself, “What’s the first thing I should do when I start feeling sick?” Or maybe you're curious about whether the fluoride in your water could be making your thyroid issues worse? Ever had trouble with insomnia or been stuck in a cycle of migraines?
There’s a lot of info out there, and sometimes it’s tricky to sort out what’s reliable. While these questions are super common and can apply to many people, remember that this doesn’t replace the need to see your doctor. If you’ve got a health concern, always check in with your healthcare provider so they can give you advice tailored specifically to you.

· Tips On What To Do When You First Feel Sick

Have you ever considered that your exercise routine might be doing more harm than good for your hormonal health?
Welcome back to the Dr. Kinney show! In this episode, I’m talking about the complex relationship between exercise and hormonal health, with a particular focus on female hormones.
We’ll look at the impacts of different types of exercise on the thyroid, adrenal glands, and sex hormones, such as estrogen and progesterone and how both over-exercising and under-exercising can disrupt hormone balance, leading to issues such as PMS, weight gain, and stress-related symptoms.
I will also offer practical insights on how to tailor exercise routines to support hormonal health and emphasize the importance of relaxation practices, especially during stressful periods.
In Today’s Episode We Discuss
· Understanding Hormones and Their Functions
· The Female Hormone Cycle Explained
· Thyroid and Adrenal Hormones
· Impact of Exercise on Hormones

If you’re feeling out of sync, pay attention to what your body is telling you. Rest and relaxation are just as important as movement, and sometimes, less is more when it comes to exercise, especially if you’re dealing with hormonal imbalances like PMS, weight gain, or stress.

How much do your thoughts and words actually influence your health and healing process?
Welcome back to the Dr. Kinney show! In this episode, I’m diving into why your mindset plays such a huge role in your health and healing.
I see so many patients get stuck in negative thought cycles that seem impossible to break. The truth is, your brain can’t tell the difference between what’s happening in reality and what’s going on in your head. This means that you can actually transform your body just by changing the way you think.
Positive energy is real! It has a genuine impact on your body. This goes for how you talk to yourself, and how others speak to you - whether it’s a friend, colleague, family member, or partner. Words hold a lot of power.
You can acknowledge what's going on with your health while still focusing on the small victories that keep you in a positive mindset. When you stay in that space, that’s when real change happens.
In Today’s Episode We Discuss
· The Power of Mindset in Healing
· Understanding the Law of Attraction
· The Brain's Role in Perception
· Impact of Words on the Body
· Practical Steps to Shift Your Mindset
· Recognizing and Celebrating Progress
Remember to take it one step at a time—celebrate your progress, however small, and be mindful of the words you use both with yourself and others. You have more control over your health than you might realize, and every positive thought brings you closer to healing.
