Trust Your Gut

Trust Your Gut, hosted by Demi Fair, dives into the world of the mind-body connection. We explore the emerging science of the gut-brain axis and microbiome, while harnessing the power of intuition and connection to spirit. We dig into nervous system health and trauma, understanding how this is a key piece in our gut-brain and overall health imbalances, and learn new resources for building resilience. If you struggle with chronic digestive and mental stress, and are tired of trying “just one more diet” to address your symptoms, then this is the place for you. Sprinkled with personal stories of a lifetime of chronic gut-brain symptoms and a deep exploration of her inner world, Demi is here to help guide you to trust your gut. Demi is a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, and trained in parts work and DARE (Dynamic Attachment Repatterning Experience).

    75. Is Nervous System Regulation Enough to Heal Your Gut?

    Is nervous system work enough on its own to heal your gut? I get some version of this question all the time, and today I'm answering it directly. The honest answer is: it depends. Nervous system regulation is always the foundation, and for a lot of the people I work with, it's the missing piece that makes everything else finally click. But when chronic stress or dysregulation has been running the show for a long time, it can also weaken stomach acid, enzymes, and bile production, affect your gut lining, and open the door to imbalances like SIBO or dysbiosis. At that point, regulation alone may not be enough to undo what's already happened physically. In this episode, I walk through both sides: why nervous system work is non-negotiable, what it can heal on its own, and how I figure out when someone also needs direct support for the digestive process itself, and in what order. In this episode, I'm talking about: Why nervous system regulation is foundational, and when it can be enough on its own How chronic stress and dysregulation physically affect stomach acid, enzymes, bile, and your microbiome The two layers of nervous system patterns I look for: lifelong background patterns, and patterns that formed around your symptoms How I assess what's happening in the digestive river without running tests Why the order you address things in matters as much as what you address   Join the free masterclass: Discover the Missing Piece to Break Free from the IBS-Stress Cycle Take the free quiz: Gut Issues?

    74. My Recent Flare and the One Thing That Made It Go Away

    In the last episode, I talked about new gut symptoms that flared up after six years of being symptom-free, due to a spinal fluid leak, real physiological stress on my whole nervous system. Quick update: my symptoms have resolved, after seven weeks! There's one main thing I did to navigate these symptoms that I know made all the difference and helped me move through this flare quickly. I want to share that with you, then walk you through a step-by-step process and tool you can use the next time you have a symptom flare, so it can support you in moving through it quickly too.

    73. Six Years Symptom-Free. Then This Happened.

    30 years of struggling with gut symptoms. Six years completely free of them. And then a month or so ago, they came back.But not the same symptoms, and I already knew why. A few months ago I had a spinal fluid leak which was real physical stress on my whole nervous system. That’s when my digestion started talking again. Different pattern than my old one, which told me immediately: this isn’t old IBS resurfacing.  It’s my nervous system responding to something real that just happened to my body.So in this episode I’m walking you through exactly what happened, what I’ve learned watching my own body move through this in real time, what is different about how I approach gut symptoms now, and how I’m applying my own framework to myself — because I know what’s going on, I know what I’m doing about it, and I’m confident I’ll be back to fully symptom-free soon.Join the free masterclass: Discover the Missing Piece to Break Free from the IBS-Stress Cycle Take the free quiz: Gut Issues?

    72. No One Is Going To Heal You

     Here's the thing: free content was never supposed to give you a diagnosis. It's not supposed to. It can educate, it can shift your perspective, it can hand you a new lens to see your own body through — but it can't individualize itself to you. It doesn't know your history, your nervous system, your story. I spent years chasing that anyway. Broke, hungry for answers, bouncing from one naturopath to a stack of Google tabs to another forum thread, trying to piece together my own diagnosis from free information. It didn't heal me. It just left me more overwhelmed and more confused. In this episode, I'm talking about: Why content (mine included) is built to inspire and educate, not have all the answers The overload loop I see in so many people (and used to live in myself): more searching, more information, less clarity What real support actually looks like — not "here's your answer," but "here's what I see, here's the framework, here's the work to actually understand your own body" Why "you can't do it alone" and "no one is going to heal you" are both true at the same time   Join the free masterclass: Discover the Missing Piece to Break Free from the IBS-Stress Cycle Take the free quiz: Gut Issues?

    71. Why I Still Had Severe Dysbiosis After Healing My IBS (And What That Taught Me)

    What if your stool test results aren't actually your root cause? In this episode, I share a pivotal moment in my own 30-year healing journey — the day I retested my microbiome after becoming completely symptom-free, only to find I still had severe dysbiosis. What that result revealed changed everything about how I understand gut health. I break down why chasing bacteria, cycling through elimination diets, and obsessing over lab results can keep you stuck, and what it actually means to heal upstream. Using the river metaphor at the core of my framework, I explain how your nervous system, not your microbiome, sets the conditions for everything downstream. In this episode: Why my microbiome looked the same after healing as it did when I was suffering The difference between temporary symptom control and true healing How a dysbiotic microbiome is often a downstream consequence, not the root cause Why your body's ecosystem is far more resilient than any lab report suggests What it actually takes to restore the conditions for lasting gut health Join my free masterclass: Discover the Missing Piece to Break Free from the IBS-Stress Cycle Take my free quiz: Gut Issues?

    70. Your Gut Doesn't Just Digest Food... It Digests Your Life

    if you’re dealing with the IBS-stress cycle, there’s one thing I want you to understand: Your gut doesn’t just digest food. It digests your entire life experience. In this episode, I break down why focusing only on food, supplements, or the microbiome often keeps people stuck in the symptom-stress cycle… and what’s actually missing from that approach. We talk about: Why it’s a mistake to treat the gut in isolation The role of the enteric nervous system (your “second brain”) How your gut processes stress, emotions, and life experiences The connection between your gut, nervous system, and mental health Why symptoms like IBS are often psychosomatic (mind-body), not just physical The deeper questions to ask when you feel stuck in cycles of restriction, protocols, and frustration If you’ve tried all the “right” things and still aren’t getting better… this episode will likely shift how you see your healing.Related Episode: 2.

    If you’ve ever found yourself stuck in a binge-restrict cycle, feeling anxious or fearful around food choices, experiencing disordered eating, or constantly trying to control your body, this episode is for you. I’m joined by Ashlyn from Heart-Led Wellness, a food freedom and nervous system coach who helps women heal these patterns by addressing the deeper root: nervous system dysregulation.

    66. Think Stress Caused Your IBS? Here's Why There's More to the Story

    In this episode, we’re diving deep into the roots of IBS and chronic symptoms. While it’s common to associate the onset of symptoms with a particularly stressful time, like university or a major life event, there’s often more beneath the surface. I’ll explore how acute stress can act as a trigger, but how deeper patterns, often developed earlier in life, set the stage for these symptoms to emerge.  We’ll cover:  The difference between acute and chronic stress and their impacts on the body.  How early-life experiences shape key systems like the gut-brain connection, vagal tone, and the stress response.  Why intergenerational influences and unresolved patterns can make us more susceptible to chronic symptoms.  Practical steps to start exploring and addressing these deeper patterns to support your healing journey.  If you’ve ever wondered why symptoms seem to "come out of nowhere" or felt stuck despite trying all the right things, this episode will help you better understand your body and the deeper layers of healing.   Join the masterclass: Discover the Missing Piece to Break Free from the IBS-Stress Cycle Find out more about my program, Gut-Brain Healing Toolkit.

    65. What Are Your Symptoms Trying to Tell You?

    In this episode, we dive into the hidden messages our bodies send through symptoms. Our bodies can’t speak to us directly, so they use sensations, emotions, and—sometimes the loudest of all—chronic symptoms to get our attention. While it’s normal to feel frustrated or defeated by persistent symptoms, I’m offering a fresh perspective: what if these symptoms are trying to tell us something?

    49. A Honest Report of Everything That Helped Me Heal My IBS

    At my recent training a peer asked me, "how did you heal your body image issues?" I found myself unable to answer that question specifically. What did I do?

So I explore that and share honestly about each of the pieces that played a role.  This is a really important episode to listen to if you struggle with being in the IBS-stress cycle. Do not miss it!

    42. Shift Your Mindset Via Your Body

    Your mindset around your symptoms and overall health matters. And sometimes just trying to shift your mindset can be really tough, especially if you are dysregulated in your nervous system or have experienced trauma. So this is a way to bring the body into connection with the negative thoughts you are having, and to establish positive thoughts around your symptoms. Emotions are a direct line to the body when you bring awareness to where you feel them. That can be more motivating and impactful than just telling yourself to change your mind. ------- Join the masterclass: Discover the Missing Piece to Break Free from the IBS-Stress Cycle Find out more about my program, Gut-Brain Healing Toolkit.

    34. Why I Always Ask Clients With Chronic Gut Issues About Their Childhood

    All of our early-life experiences predispose how we interact with the world and what we perceive as safe.  This programs our nervous system responses, microbiome, gut-brain communication, and mental states at a young age, and we carry this into adulthood.  If we had any adverse early life experiences, such as trauma, disconnection with caregivers, or a disturbance of a safe, nurturing environment during the early years of our life - this will program our nervous system, microbiome, and gut-brain.  It’s essential to understand how these experiences are connected to our nervous system responses so that we know how to truly heal our symptoms.   Join the masterclass: Discover the Missing Piece to Break Free from the IBS-Stress Cycle Find out more about my program, Gut-Brain Healing Toolkit.

    27. The Strong Link Between IBS and Trauma

    IBS is so frustrating. It's mostly just a catch all phrase for a doctor to say "I don't actually know what is causing your symptoms." I struggled with IBS-C (constipation dominant) for so much of my life.  The thing is... IBS is a dysfunction of the gut-brain connection. Therefore, how our nervous system is functioning is essential when it comes to IBS. In fact, 50 - 74% of people diagnosed with IBS report having childhood trauma or adverse early life experiences. An incredible statistic that shows just how impactful chronic and traumatic stress is on our gut health, and how supporting the nervous system is such a key piece.  Join the masterclass: Discover the Missing Piece to Break Free from the IBS-Stress Cycle Find out more about my program, Gut-Brain Healing Toolkit.

    26. The Physical Body & Emotional Body Are Not Separate with Haley DeMarco

    This is a MUST listen. Join Haley and I as we talk about her experience with serious digestive issues that were not fixed by a celiac diagnosis and going gluten free - but rather by looking at deeper aspects of herself. A large part of her healing was through the support of Chinese medicine, which helped her understand what emotional aspects were driving her symptoms, and by connecting more deeply to herself. This led her into becoming an acupuncturist, and she shares her wisdom of this approach to healing with us!  In Chinese medicine, the physical body is not seen as separate from the emotional body, but absolutely intertwined. When looking at physical symptoms this type of healing considers the emotional aspects behind these physical manifestations. This is so important to understand and could absolutely change your life, and help heal your symptoms for good.

ABOUT THIS SHOW

Trust Your Gut, hosted by Demi Fair, dives into the world of the mind-body connection. We explore the emerging science of the gut-brain axis and microbiome, while harnessing the power of intuition and connection to spirit. We dig into nervous system health and trauma, understanding how this is a key piece in our gut-brain and overall health imbalances, and learn new resources for building resilience. If you struggle with chronic digestive and mental stress, and are tired of trying “just one more diet” to address your symptoms, then this is the place for you. Sprinkled with personal stories of a lifetime of chronic gut-brain symptoms and a deep exploration of her inner world, Demi is here to help guide you to trust your gut. Demi is a Somatic Experiencing Practitioner, Nutritional Therapy Practitioner, and trained in parts work and DARE (Dynamic Attachment Repatterning Experience).
