Time & Place for Western & Eastern Medicine with Ali Ramos

In this episode, I’m chatting with Ali Ramos, a nutritional therapist who specializes in nutritional reparenting.   Ali walked away from her 17-year-long career in veterinary medicine in 2020 after hitting her rock bottom – she was taking 8 different prescription meds and had undergone 5 surgeries for endometriosis, and she was ready to take a different approach to healing.   That’s when she found Eastern medicine.   The rest, as they say, is history – and Ali has been in remission from stage 4 endometriosis for nearly 3 years now!   Tune in to learn more about Ali’s story and to hear us discuss topics like… Men and women with chronic illnesses + autoimmune disorders having a higher likelihood of type A or perfectionist personalities [9:10] What Western medicine leaves out and why it’s important to bridge that gap [11:55] Functional medicine and how it differs from other healthcare practices/treatments/methodologies [14:00] Getting to the root cause of chronic illness and understanding the impact of mental health disorders [19:15] Nutritional reparenting and why it’s essential understand your values, morals and standards so you can advocate for yourself [24:45] The power of education, community and self-advocacy in the healthcare space [28:55] Why you can’t depend on one single person or doctor to solve all your problems [35:45] Practicing stillness on your healing journey [40:30] The TRUTH about “biohacking” and why having TOO MUCH information can paralyze you [46:20] Getting out of a victim mindset and learning from your past so you can heal [51:20]   Looking for 1:1 support on your gut health journey?
