Travel can be one of the biggest triggers for digestive symptoms.

Between disrupted routines, less sleep, dehydration, eating out more often, time zone changes, alcohol, and increased stress, it’s no surprise that many people experience bloating, constipation, reflux, or stomach discomfort while traveling.

In this episode, I’m sharing exactly how I approach eating at restaurants while traveling to support my digestion without becoming restrictive or obsessive.

You’ll learn how I choose meals, what I prioritize on a menu, the supplements I travel with, how I support my nervous system while away from home, and the mindset shifts that have helped me enjoy travel without constantly worrying about my gut.

Because the goal isn’t perfection — the goal is supporting your body while still enjoying the experience!

In this episode, I sit down with Faith Ashenden, nervous system and subconscious reprogramming expert and founder of That Healing Feeling, to explore one of the most overlooked pieces of the healing journey: the subconscious mind.

Faith shares her incredible story of recovering from Graves’ disease, IBS, POTS, chronic fatigue, chronic UTIs, and a long list of debilitating symptoms that ultimately left her bedridden and unable to work. After years of pursuing both conventional and functional medicine approaches, she discovered that while many of those tools helped her improve, they didn’t fully give her freedom back. That realization led her down the path of studying neuroplasticity, nervous system regulation, and subconscious reprogramming.

Together, we discuss how chronic illness can become intertwined with identity, why many people unknowingly develop beliefs that keep them stuck, and how the subconscious mind influences everything from stress responses to healing capacity.

We also dive into perfectionism, people-pleasing, symptom patterns, trauma responses, nervous system regulation, and how creating safety in the body may be one of the most important components of long-term healing.

If you’ve ever felt like you’re doing everything “right” but still aren’t seeing the progress you want, this conversation could completely change the way you think about healing.

Low progesterone is one of the most common hormone patterns we see in women struggling with chronic digestive issues, burnout, thyroid dysfunction, inflammation, blood sugar imbalances, and chronic stress. But here’s the truth: low progesterone is rarely the root problem.

In this episode, I break down why progesterone is often a downstream symptom rather than the true cause. We’ll dive into how stress, under-eating, poor gut health, blood sugar dysregulation, thyroid issues, and nervous system dysfunction can all contribute to low progesterone levels and hormone imbalances. You’ll learn the key signs of low progesterone, why ovulation matters, how progesterone and estrogen work together, and practical ways to naturally support healthy hormone production from a root-cause perspective.

Whether you’re dealing with PMS, painful periods, fertility struggles, anxiety before your cycle, insomnia, spotting, or feeling like a completely different person during your luteal phase, this episode will help you understand what’s really going on beneath the surface.
