If you’ve already changed your diet, treated H pylori, and tried every supplement you can think of - but you’re still dealing with reflux, heartburn, or stomach pain... this episode is for you.
The problem isn’t that you’re doing something wrong, it’s that no one’s shown you what’s really going on underneath the surface.
In this episode, I’m pulling back the curtain on the hidden root causes that often get missed by conventional approaches (and even many gut-healing protocols). These are the exact patterns I see in my clients who feel stuck despite doing “everything right,” and the same patterns that showed up in my own healing journey too.
💡 What You’ll Learn in This Episode:
Why surface-level fixes (like diets and supplements) often fall short
The five hidden root causes you might be overlooking
How functional lab testing can give you answers - and a real path forward
What your body actually needs to stop the symptom cycle for good
If you’re tired of flare-ups, food fear, and not knowing what’s going wrong, this episode will give you hope and clarity on what to do next.

In this off-the-cuff and deeply personal episode, Jess shares the most pivotal shift in her own healing journey - the inner work that changed everything when supplements and diets weren’t enough.
If you've been doing all the right things (following protocols, taking the supplements, cutting out foods) and still not feeling better… this episode is your wake-up call.
Jess reveals the hard truth about how stress, thought spirals, and the pressure to control everything are often the real reasons you're still symptomatic. She walks through how your nervous system, your internal dialogue, and your inability to slow down are blocking your healing - even when you’re checking all the right boxes.
She also opens up about the role her faith played in releasing the weight of control, reducing anxiety, and finally allowing her body to heal. This powerful episode will help you reconnect with what your body actually needs to feel safe enough to recover, for good.

In this episode, we’re looking at alginates - the fascinating “raft” technology found in products like Gaviscon Advance and Reflux Gourmet - and what the research actually says about how they work.
Instead of changing your stomach’s chemistry like PPIs or antacids, alginates form a barrier that keeps stomach contents from pushing up into the esophagus. In this conversation, I’m unpacking how this works, what the science says, and when alginates might be most helpful for reflux relief.
What alginates are and how they create a raft to block reflux events
How alginates compare to PPIs and antacids in research studies
The real-life situations where alginates can be most effective
Why alginates are a tool for symptom management, not a cure, and what to do if you want lasting relief
