Dr. Klinghardt has been a leader in the field of tick-borne infections, autoimmunity, and complex medically mysterious illnesses for over 30 years.

Dr. Klinghardt is a physician of incredible brilliance, scientific rigor, compassion, and intuition: a rare combination in today's doctors. His annual seminars, which I attended regularly before the pandemic, brought together the most cutting-edge researchers and practitioners from the fields of Lyme, autism, mold injury, PANS and PANDAS, chemical sensitivity, autoimmunity, parasitology, and beyond. Looking back over my scribbled notes from 2012 onward, I can see evidence of my mind being blown right and left--and the laying down of stepping stones of an emerging knowledge base about how to approach, treat, and heal syndromes thought by allopathic medicine to be incurable. I knew from the very first conference that this was the teacher who would bring clarity to my journey, and show me a path forward.

This week I brought in my longtime friend fellow Yale Swammer, Nicole DeBoom. You may remember Nicole because she interviewed me for the trailer of the Healing Grove Podcast way back when. Well, she is back to interview me again because, at the time of this conversation, I was about to embark on a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to swim through the Greek Cyclades islands with some swim buddies from college. This opportunity came to me seemingly out of the blue last fall, and though I can't say that I initially jumped at the idea of getting back into swimming training after 31 years out of the water, the long and the short of it is that I ultimately decided that I wanted to be the person who says YES! to adventures that thrill yet terrify, and so here I am.

If you'd asked me ten years ago whether I thought I'd ever be strong enough to swim 5000 meters a day in the open water for 7 days straight, I would have said "Not a chance." Back then I was still crawling out of the hole that was Lyme disease for me: 30 lbs down, barely able to pick up my one-year-old, and frankly a shadow of my former self. So it just goes to show what can happen when you get to the other side of your Lyme Healing Journey. And in honor of Lyme Awareness Month, I have decided to take a deep dive into the learnings of this swim adventure with me.

Over the past several years, a number of programs for retraining the limbic portion of the brain have popped up. I've leaned into a few of them, including the Gupta Program, DNRS with Annie Hopper, and my friend, Liz Stanley's MMFT. All of these are great programs, and have helped countless people regain their health using tools that fall under the category of "limbic retraining."

Recently, I came across a new kid on the block: Primal Trust, created by Cathleen King, DPT--aka, "Dr. Cat."

Even though I felt like I already had a pretty full tool box to direct my patients to, I decided to lean into her world a little. What I discovered is that for many of the patients I see--some of whom have become increasingly sensitive to a growing list of foods, chemicals, and environmental exposures, including mold--Primal Trust offers another beautiful solution.

I hope that you enjoy this conversation and if it resonates with you, I hope that you will check out Primal Trust. You can do that here: https://cathleenking.simplero.com/products/143239-Monthly-Membership-PRIMAL-TRUST-Academy?ref=51104-troutcreek

This week I want you to meet my friend, Dr. Emily Kostelnik, the Vestibular Psychologist. Vestibular disorders are very debilitating and I see them all too often in my practice. I found Emily on Instagram several months ago and realized very quickly that I needed to have her come talk to my audience. If you are suffering from chronic dizziness or balance issues, my hope is that you will be encouraged and empowered listening to Emily share her story of healing. 

 Here is more about Emily...She is a Clinical Health Psychologist specializing in chronic dizziness and related disorders and also lives with multiple vestibular diagnoses. Over time, she has learned about the connection between histamine intolerance, mast cell activation syndrome and chronic illness. She currently works from this lens, both in her personal journey and how she works with clients. She is the founder of Rooted Behavioral Education which provides self-paced virtual behavioral health courses specific to chronic dizziness, provides one-on-one educational meetings to vestibular warriors worldwide, and oversees vestibular mindset coaches. She is also the founder of a private psychology practice called The Vestibular Psychologist where she provides virtual, individual, and group therapy to those with chronic dizziness living in US states where she is licensed. She is passionate about conducting research, supporting clients, and providing holistic education to the vestibular community. Her mission is to teach vestibular warriors that treatment requires a whole body approach and that there are always new treatment options to consider.

This week I am thrilled to introduce you to my new friend, Irma Jennings.

Irma is a Holistic Bone Coach, but I like to think of her as a "bone whisperer," because she really understands the deepest desires of our skeletal scaffold. Moreover, she is really, really expert at explaining things in ways that are simple, clear, and medically accurate.
 
With over 13 years of specialized experience in bone health, she provides comprehensive, evidence-based education to her coaching clients so that they are well-informed about osteoporosis management and prevention. She also has a vast network of practitioners with whom she works--people she trusts to "do bones right," as it were--and literally travels to visits with her clients to their bone doctors, where she offers support and advocacy during medical consultations.

To learn more about Irma and her work, please visit: https://food4healthybones.com/

You can also reach Irma through email: [email protected]

This week I am excited to share the sixth interview I had with Meghan Tveit, MS3. In contrast to previous episodes, some of which involved Meg looking like she would rather have been horizontal, this time we caught up with her during a 4 week elective rotation, as she studies for her Step 2 Medical Exam. In our conversation, Meghan reflected back on her 8-week rotation in internal medicine, and also gave us a synopsis of what she is hoping that her fourth year as a medical student will look like.

It has been awhile since we have heard from Meghan, so in case you need a reminder of who she is, and what she is up to, read on!

Meghan Tveit is a third year medical student at George Washington School of Medicine in Washington, D.C. She graduated from Harvard in 2020, and spent almost two months living with our family during the lock-down (probably because my family includes her boyfriend, Mahlon). During that time, I really got to know Meg, and found her intelligence, compassion, empathy, curiosity, and authenticity an inspiration, and hope for the future of medicine. I've been incredibly grateful for Meg's willingness to share her journey through medical education in these little installments, as they provide glimpses into the usually hidden journey of becoming a doctor.

If you would like to follow Meghan on Instagram, you can find her here: @meg.med.motion

In honor of celebrating the release of our 75th episode of the Healing Grove Podcast, I have a very special guest to introduce to you: Dietrich Klinghardt, MD, PhD.
 
Dr. Klinghardt has been a leader in the field of tick-borne infections, autoimmunity, and complex medically mysterious illnesses for over 30 years.
 
If you've been in my circle for any length of time, or read my e-book, then you know that Dr. Klinghardt was one of my earliest teachers in the Lyme and complex mystery illness space. The first Lyme doctor I connected with on my own healing journey, I've been soaking up his pearls of wisdom regularly since 2011.

Dr. Klinghardt is a physician of incredible brilliance, scientific rigor, compassion, and intuition: a rare combination in today's doctors. His annual seminars, which I attended regularly before the pandemic, brought together the most cutting-edge researchers and practitioners from the fields of Lyme, autism, mold injury, PANS and PANDAS, chemical sensitivity, autoimmunity, parasitology, and beyond. Looking back over my scribbled notes from 2012 onward, I can see evidence of my mind being blown right and left--and the laying down of stepping stones of an emerging knowledge base about how to approach, treat, and heal from the root causes of syndromes thought by allopathic medicine to be incurable. I knew from the very first conference that this was the teacher who would bring clarity to my journey, and show me a path forward.

I want to introduce you to someone who has literally changed my life in the last few years. Moreover, she has helped me to do the same for many of my patients. Her name is Ruth Kriz.

Ruth is a nurse practitioner who has identified a group of common genetic variations that help explain why some patients develop chronic infections due to biofilms and others don't. These and several other genetic variations are consistently found in chronic UTI and interstitial cystitis patients but have a broader application to other chronic infections.

Although she has closed her medical practice, she currently consults with practitioners who are interested in learning what testing and supplements are needed to help these patients successfully eliminate these infections and prevent future infections from becoming chronic.
