Endometriosis Root Causes: Mold, Parasites, Lyme & Hidden Stress with Jessica Rauscher (FDN-P)

If you've been told endometriosis is something you just "manage" with pills or surgery, and deep down you know there has to be more.... this conversation will land. In this episode, Sarah sits down with FDN Functional Health Practitioner Jessica Rauscher to unpack what functional healing can look like when symptoms don't make sense on paper. Jessica shares her personal journey through chronic fatigue, brain fog, anxiety, and endometriosis, and the root drivers she discovered underneath it all: mold, parasites, Lyme/co-infections, toxic burden, and hidden stress. Together, they explore why many women feel like their hormones are "the problem" (when hormones are often the messengers), why sequence matters (good info in the wrong order can keep you stuck), and how healing can become overcomplicated when you're living in fight-or-flight and "paralysis by analysis." This is an empowering episode for the woman who's tried a million things… and is ready to rebuild from the foundations, with clarity, calm, and a real plan.
