Ep. 35 Eliza Bacot: She makes her way out of the ICU and into changing what you use in your medicine cabinet AND the CBD hype!

Meet Eliza! She’s got a lot of letters after her name: Eliza Bacot, RN, MSN, ACNP-BC, Certified Wellness Practitioner. For 16 years, she worked as a nurse turned nurse practitioner in critical care with a focus on mitigating disease with pharmaceuticals. Eliza’s wellness journey began after seeing the level of preventable illness and suffering in the ICU without discussions of the toxic culture people live in. Women are exposed to 168 chemicals on a daily basis between all the products we use… starting with your toilet paper!  Hear what you can do to avoid toxins in your food and home. Eliza was introduced to essential oils in 2014 by her Emory graduate school instructor. With a strong desire to promote wellness and tools for preventing illness within the community, she made a career transition to become a certified wellness practitioner in addition to her nurse practitioner certification. Encouraged by her husband, Eliza quit her job in 2017 and started her own wellness business, The Organic South, to work with individuals and corporations to encourage a wellness-based lifestyle. She finds great success in encouraging the use of doTerra essential oils, healthy food choices, toxin avoidance, and mindfulness. Other tools that her clients use is doing a home detox or GI mapping of one’s gut health. Just like me, Eliza sees a world where people think of good health as a merger of modern and natural medicine. This is why Eliza Bacot is on a mission to keep people out of the ICU and restore their health through education of herbal medicine. www.theorganicsouth.com  Paulette Rigo CDC, CDS Consultant/Coach Author Speaker Podcast Host 1:1 Retreats Find out more about Paulette at www.betterdivorceacademy.com www.bettercareerproject.com www.betterdivorceblueprint.com www.betterdivorcesummit.com
