My health journey
After a slew of mystery symptoms and a cancer scare I quit the pill, got diagnosed with the autoimmune disease Hashimotos (hypothyroid) and set out on a journey to discover wtf was going on with my health. Did it get better? No, it got worse…way, way worse. From integrative holistic doctors to raw diets, to yoga teacher training and finding respite in Bali – I went down a deep, anxious well of mental and physical health. I learned A LOT and I can proudly say I am now, seven years later, in good health. If you feel you’re headed down your own health rabbit hole, give this episode a listen and let us know what you think!
