There’s a lot of information out there on what to do when you’re hypothyroid. There’s a bit less information on what to do when you’re hyperthyroid. But there is a whole lot less information on what to do once your thyroid is gone (usually due to Hashimoto’s, nodules, or thyroid cancer). 

This information gap was brought to my attention by an attendee of my free hypothyroid heroes q&a coaching call (which I’ll be hosting again August 21, 6-7 pm, click here to grab your spot) and it was a topic that seemed worth exploring here with you.

Last week we started a deep dive conversation on the 5 root causes that drive Hashimoto's so you can be empowered to address them and significantly reduce - if not entirely demolish - stubborn symptoms.

3. Chronic Stress: The Silent Thyroid Killer

We often think of stress as a mental health issue, but stress has a direct biochemical impact on your thyroid—and it’s a HUGE factor in trigger...

 Before we get into today's episode, I'm stoked to announce that for once I'm actually ahead of the curve in getting my Black Friday deal out to you. Well... deals. 

I was trying to decide what sale would be most beneficial. Would 50% off one month of personal training be best? Or maybe 35% off a year long membership to The Club? Or what about giving a free GI map (AKA comprehensive gut panel) with the purchase of any nutrition program?

Instead of trying to read your mind, I decided to just ask. (Yay for cle...

Last week I shared the first two steps of living a symptom-free life with Hashimoto's. These are the steps I parsed down from 2 decades of my own trial and error, literally hundreds of hours of research, time working with a number of functional medicine practitioners, over a decade of working 1:1 with clients, and expanding my knowledge with programs like Functional Diagnostic Nutrition, Gut Honest Truth Academy, Institute for Integrative Nutrition, and Functional Nutrition Alliance. 

I wish I had a shortcut when I was first diagnosed... th...

I remember sitting in my college apartment listening to a woman on a podcast talking about how she healed her Hashimoto's. 

It took her years, but she did it. 

It felt so daunting, so long, so out of reach to me. 

I literally couldn’t fathom a life without crippling fatigue, without embarrassing digestive issues. I couldn’t imagine going to the gym without worrying that it would cause a flare or being happy with what I saw in the mirror.  

I couldn’t imagine escaping this box that Hashimoto's kept me in. This box that kept me small, and ...

I often get asked if I "cheat" on my diet, and if I do, how much??

Well I like to say, I don't cheat, I just eat. It's true. I don't approach my nutrition like I'm on a diet, I just eat the things that I know make me feel the best and don't bother with the stuff that makes me feel like crap.

The thing is, a lot of people seem to think that means I never get to "have fun" with my food. Quite the contrary! All it takes is a little imagination and a Google search for me to find healthier ways of including those mouth watering meals when I get a ...
