Timestamped Show Notes:

00:30 – Introduction

07:45 – I think what my passion and purpose, to answer your question, is that I went from being an elite athlete to, fatigued, tired, depressed, gained 30 pounds overnight, just lost everything I had as an athlete and I felt like it was overnight. But it wasn’t and so that’s kind of my purpose now. Educating that what happened to me could happen to you. Let’s stop it now before you ignore it five years later, and end up me years later, still can’t do that.

13:45 – That’s what I did when I wrote my book, it was more for my own therapy session. But what were my red flags that happened for probably the 10 years before my breakdown? That happened in March 2013 that led me to that day it worked up so I wasn’t aware of it so I had to go back in time till like high school and go back. Where are these things happening that I was so oblivious to? So that is kind of a task I give everyone I work with is like let’s go back and see what are your stressors you know, what are things that are triggers for you that activate that stress response and you know, we know we know that acute stress is good beneficial, but when it comes like non-stop but just never turns off that when it gets to be trouble for our bodies.

20:00 – So what would you say if I just filled you with macronutrients with vitamins and minerals and everything you need, instead of a pill. You know, get it from your food and it’s hard, I take ton of supplements, but it’s hard to get that from your food. But ideally, it’s food. I read Michael Pollan’s book forever go, and he has the best thing like food. You can read the ingredients list that your great grandmother had in her house

30:00 – When I have people on my show. It’s like, what’s your Why? What’s your drive and, you know, follow your passion, your purpose, and I feel like my purpose of going through eight years of health imbalances that I had, is so I help other people avoid going through what I have had and so it’s finding out why so for me to help other people what I’ve decided is, you know, I can’t solicit people but just you want them to come to you when they’re ready for help because being a functional practitioner now and focusing that as my main business is health coaching, being health detective is really investigating with functional labs and nutritional therapy and quarterly now together to create an individualized protocol to transform, rebuild, repair the whole you.

39:30 – I learned years ago that it does a lot of that stuff doesn’t get through your stomach acid so if it doesn’t like I use a megaspore for base probiotic that can actually bypass acidic that’s supposed to prevent you know the bad things were going through and so it certain things might not even get into your small intestine, large intestine, so it is quality, a lot of that stuff.

44:30 – I went over my hormone panel and my hormones right down at the bottom of the line that you should, and I was like, oh, man, I’m pretty good. That means I could be better and don’t settle for just how you are now that you could even be so much more energetic and happier and thriving. We all can be so much more. So why do we just settle for this, there’s so much more we can do.

50:00 – I just did labs as it just went through and I did this other lab and I keep testing people, you know, encouraging people to do lab testing. Because I didn’t know as I said, what my microbiome is about. I did a pathogen test, and it’s not good. So I might feel like I’m thriving and my immune system is super strong. But I know some people that got coronavirus, and we’re sick for two weeks and they’re active, they’re fit, they’re not overweight, but why did they get really sick from it?

58:41 – Final Words

 

Our Final Words of the Show:

I just think take ownership of your health for your body. You’ve got one body, you know, you do it for your car, you take your car in for repair, oil, lube change, you get new tires, getting alignment, etc. So why don’t we invest the amount of money we do on our cars to our own bodies? I don’t get it.
