Get ready for an eye-opening adventure with me, Kathryn McAdam, in this episode of 'Unstoppable Joy.'

We're diving into a fascinating journey inside ourselves, exploring how the tiny bacteria in our gut can make a big difference in our mood and health.

I'll share my own story, revealing how keeping my gut happy has helped me feel emotionally stronger. You'll learn about serotonin, a chemical our gut makes that keeps our spirits high.

I'll also talk about my experiences with antibiotics - how they can upset our gut balance and lead to issues like leaky gut, and how probiotics can help set things right again.

We're also going to delve into the exciting world of psychomicrobiotics, a new field that's showing how our gut health can impact our mental well-being, even offering new insights into conditions like autism.

Hear about my personal transformation with a special gut-healthy diet that improved my sleep, digestion, and overall energy levels. Plus, we'll look at some amazing research on fecal microbiota transplantation and learn a surprising lesson from baby bunnies about the importance of a healthy gut.

This episode is perfect for anyone wanting to care for their gut after taking antibiotics, looking to change their diet for better health, or just curious about how gut health is key to a happier life.
