Healing is Not a Straight Line: Navigating Setbacks and Sickness

from Behind the Filter

In this episode of Behind the Filter, I’m pulling back the curtain and giving you a "fly on the wall" seat at my latest appointment with functional health expert Ashley from Total Body Wellness. We get real about navigating a three-week holiday setback and how recent illness impacted my lean muscle mass and lab results. Ashley explains the fascinating science of the gut-brain axis, revealing how my gut health is directly tied to my struggles with anxiety and "brain fog." We also map out the next phase of my journey, including a new protein-focused strategy, split-dosing for inflammation, and the "stair-step" supplements helping me reclaim my energy.
