  • In your process of healing, have you found yourself saying, "This is too expensive for me"?

    Have you had to say "no" to or delay buying a life-changing lab, supplement protocol, or program because of not being able to afford it?

    Are you annoyed or overwhelmed with how much the cost of healing is?

    If so, then this episode is for you.

    The cost of healing is one of the most COMMON reasons I'm told by someone that they can't heal, so this month on the Better Belly Podcast, I'm dedicating every episode to tips and hacks for how to make healing for affordable.

    On today's episode, I'm sharing my top 3 tips to accurately estimate how much it will cost you to heal.

    This is a SUPER powerful skill because, like with all things, being able to anticipate the cost can help us prepare for it - whether it is buying a house, paying for college, or saving up for a new oven, knowing that general price range can help you to save and mentally prepare for the cost so that, once it comes, you CAN pay for it.

    WITHOUT being able to accurately estimate how much it will cost you to heal, you end up over and over again with surprise bills and being not financially prepared to pay for what you want or need to pay for in your health. And this results in a cycle of never being able to pay for anything.

    If you feel like you're drowning in health expenses, or you don't know what costs are good deals or not, then this episode is for you.

    P.S. For even more tips and tricks for how to make your health more affordable, check out the shownotes where I've included previous episodes to guide you further in your healing journey.

  • Learn how I paid only $400 for $1500+ in Functional Medicine doctor appointments and labs using THIS health insurance hack 🤑

    ---

    Are you SICK of health insurance not covering the care you want to get to heal yourself?

    Are you TIRED of shopping around for a doctor who understands your condition, only to learn that they're out of network with your insurance and almost entirely out-of-pocket expense?

    Do you WISH that it was easier to find and pay for a holistic doctor who could actually heal you?

    If so, then this episode is for you.

    Since starting the Better Belly Podcast in 2020, I've been trying to accrue a list of the BEST tips to make your healthcare more affordable while still getting the quality you want, with care from doctors that you want.

    I've shared multiple episodes like episode 181// How to Make Health More Affordable with Katherine Pomerantz and an episode with my dad, a surgeon, breaking down why health insurance works the way it does and How to Get the MOST Out of Your Health Insurance in 2024.

    But today, I'm doing something I've NEVER done before: sharing the EXACT numbers me + my family have paid for our health insurance at different stages, and how we get ALL of our functional medicine appointments and labs covered by health insurance.

    This is a bombshell health insurance hack that health insurance companies DO NOT want you to know about, because you will NO LONGER have to rely on them.

    If you are SICK AND TIRED of health insurance, hidden fees, and over-the-top costs of healing - then this episode is for you.

  • One of most common reasons I have clients tell me that haven't healed or can't move forward in healing is because of money issues. Not enough money, not knowing where to invest their money they do have, or having wounds from previous investments that wasted money and just not wanting to repeat that again.

    At least one time a year, I like to devote a few episodes to having an open conversation around money and health. My goal is to help you feel less alone in this conversation because, whether we like it or not, money IS a part of the health conversation. And my OTHER main goal is to actually give you practical tips and tricks for how to reduce the cost of healing and generally be better able to afford the healing you ultimately need.

    This September, I'm covering 4 main topics:

    My Top 5 Best and Worst Health Investments My Top Tips for How to Accurately Estimate the Cost of HealingMy BEST Insurance Hack to Get Insurance to Cover Functional Medicine Every Single Time15 Creative Ideas to Increase Cashflow and Fund Your Healing

    Today, I'm starting this series with sharing some of my biggest financial flops and wins in my pursuit of healing to encourage you, hopefully make you laugh, and prepare you for the rest of this month where I share how I went from my 5 worst investments to regularly saving the MOST amount of money possible on my health and my family's health every single year.

    If you have shame around failed healing investments or if you've been trying to heal and money issues have been holding you back, then this episode is for you!

  • Hear this toxic mold success story about how Matt completely healed his family from mold - even when ALL doctors had failed them.

    ---

    In 2018, Matt and his wife Amy were woken up in the middle of the night by their son writhing with abdominal pain. Western medicine said he was a healthy young man and had no answers.

    Matt eventually connected a moldy window in his sons room to his symptoms and started studying mold around the clock.

    On today's episode, I'm having special guest Matt Kelly, Functional Health Practitioner, onto the Better Belly Podcast to come and personally tell the story of his and his families journey through MCAS, Ehlers-Danlos Syndrome (EDS), mold, and Lyme disease, getting no answers from conventional medicine, finding mold was at the center of it all, and popping out on the other side with, dare I say it, a happy ending.

    I've personally had the honor to get to know Matt through a variety of connections. He's mentored me through some of my very first clients with Lyme disease, and I've gotten to absorb his wisdom and passion for healing clients from mold just by being in his amazing Toxic Mold Answers FB Group, which has EXPLODED in the number of people it serves over the last few years.

    I am SO excited to introduce you to Matt and his and his family's incredible story of struggle, defeat, and triumph.

    If you've been discouraged in your journey to heal your body from mold, Lyme, or if you don't even know what is making you sick, then it's time to dive into this story of hope about how one family escaped from mold and Lyme - and how you can, too.

  • Mold toxicity and Lyme disease often come together. Why? And if you have both, which do you treat first? Learn this and more on this episode!

    ---

    In the world of chronic illnesses that everyone talks about as "difficult to solve", mold and lyme are two infections that find themselves at the top of the pile.

    Coincidentally, many people with Lyme disease have mold toxicity, and many people with mold toxicity have Lyme disease.

    Why is this? And if you have both, which one do you deal with first?

    On today's episode, I'm talking through some basics on mold toxicity and lyme disease including:

    Signs that you have mold toxicity or lyme diseaseA common picture of what someone looks like who has both infectionsWhat lab testing to do to determine if you have mold toxicity and lyme diseaseMy treatment recommendations for mold toxicity and lyme diseaseAnd if you have both, which do you deal with first: mold or lyme?

    We're covering all this and more on today's episode!

    If you've been dealing with mystery symptoms that your doctor can't fix, or if you think you have or KNOW you have mold illness or lyme disease, then THIS episode is for you.

  • For 6 months, I had tinnitus in both my ears. Learn how I found the cause of my tinnitus + my treatment to get it to almost completely disappear.

    ---

    This January 2024, on the first day of the new year, I suddenly developed a very loud and new symptom that I've never had before in my life: tinnitus.

    As soon as it happened, I had to wrestle with a sense of extreme panic and need to know everything about WHY this was happening to me and HOW I could stop it.

    I'm adding this episode on tinnitus into our August Mold Month series because (spoiler alert) my tinnitus was caused by mold exposure.

    On today's episode, I'm answering questions like:

    How did I know my tinnitus was from mold exposure?What were the first steps I took as soon as I started getting a new symptom I'd never had before?What were my emotions like, and how did I handle them as I tried to navigate through a completely new symptom I'd never dealt with before (for myself)And what I've been doing practically since January to tackle my tinnitus and bring it into submission after having daily for almost 6 months

    I want to use my experience with tinnitus as a case study to give you a picture of what it looks like, moment by moment, for a seasoned-mold-fighter to go through mold.

    Because even if you've been fighting mold for years (like myself), mold (and the symptoms it causes) cause scary and big feelings inside us. But, there IS a way to make fighting mold feel less crazy, and there IS a way to move forward so that you, too, can say, "I didn't heal everything in one day. But I am SO MUCH BETTER now."

  • Healing from mold is an emotional journey. Learn 3 tips for how to manage mold & emotions that come with it so you can keep moving forward!

    ---

    We are now halfway through our Mold Month series this August, and I thought, before moving forward and giving you guy more practical advice, we'd pause and take a look at the #1 thing that I see BLOCK people from moving forward in their mold journey.

    And that is...emotions.

    In the episode right before this one, I broke down for you a super simple, super effective mold treatment plan that works every time. However, because of the nature of mold and inherent steps involved in healing from it, I frequently see people paralyzed in moving forward in their mold journey

    In today's episode, I'm first sharing the top 4 most common emotions I see coming up for people as they face mold, and then I'm sharing my top 3 recommendations to overcome these emotions (not suppress them) to help yourself be able to continue to take steps towards healing from mold every single day.

    If you think you're sick from mold or KNOW you're sick from mold but have found yourself in a stand-still in healing, then this episode is for you.

    ---

    Mold is one of the most complicated, multi-step treatment plans required for almost any pathogen-based illness out there. This is because mold not only requires you to heal your body but also your home and everything you own.

    And - there are a LOT of pieces to treating mold.

    So today, I'm taking you through my 3-step mold treatment plan that I personally use with my clients to help them heal from mold in the fastest, lowest cost way.

    What tests to use to determine if you even have mold illnessHow to save money finding mold and remediation mold in your homeMy top recommend home mold testHow to find a qualified mold remediation company near youHow to find a mold inspector near you (and how to identify one who is not qualified)The order of steps for how to heal your body from moldTop mistakes to avoid when searching for mold in your homeTop mistakes to avoid when remediating mold in your homeWhat to do for your body BEFORE you start trying to pull mold toxins out of itThe most common mistakes I see people make when healing their body from mold

    This is a MAMMOTH episode designed to be an "episode-of-episodes" for healing mold that you can come back to again-and-again for guidance and insight. My hope is that you walk away empowered and envision for exactly how you CAN and WILL heal from mold, with a clear idea of what steps to take next in your mold healing journey, and what tools and resources you need to help you heal from mold and finally feel like yourself again.

    Because when it comes to mold, believing you can heal is one of the hardest, but most important, initial roadblocks to overcome.

    ---

    If you've have been in the mold conversation for a while, you know that one of the TOUGHEST parts of healing from toxic mold illness is not healing your BODY, but healing your HOME from mold.

    There are two main steps to healing your home from mold: 1) find the mold, and 2) remediate the mold.

    Step 2 will ALWAYS fail if step 1 is not done correctly, so to help you avoid all the most common errors in finding mold in your home, I'm bringing on my friend and certified mold inspector, Brian Karr.

    Brian Karr is a second-generation indoor environmental consultant who specializes in working with hypersensitive individuals with complex medical conditions. He helps them to understand if mold, mycotoxins, or other indoor pathogens exist in their homes that may be contributing to their health conditions, and how to remedy those issues.

    Brian is the Co-Founder of the nationally active mold inspection company, We Inspect, and has helped over 5,000 hypersensitive individuals worldwide to create healthier living environments that have allowed their doctors to help them get better.

    On today's episode, Brian is breaking down the 5 hidden signs of mold growth that you can look for for zero dollars, using your own eyeballs! So if you hire an inspector and they miss 1 of these 5 signs in your home (or you don't see them look for these signs at all!), then it's time to say "bye-bye" to that inspector!

    And - if you love this episode and want even MORE tips on how to find mold in your home in the fastest and lowest cost way, be sure to tune in to our NEXT episode releasing this week - Ep. 223// The 3 Step Mold Treatment Plan - where I'll be going over even more tips for how to find mold in your home, how to know if you need to hire a mold inspector or mold remediator, and if you do, how to find a qualified one near you.

    It's time to say "yes" to being empowered around mold. Please join with me in welcoming Brian Karr to the Better Belly Podcast.

  • Do you feel better every time you're on a protocol, but as soon as you stop your supplements or diet restrictions, your symptoms come back?

    Have you done a SIBO, parasite, or candida protocol multiple times, only to find that retesting shows you STILL have it?

    Do you feel like you've tried EVERYTHING to heal your body, but nothing has worked?

    Do you have symptoms across your body that can't be explained by doctors, symptoms like brain fog, fatigue, eczema, constipation, acid reflux, bloating, hormone imbalance, or PMS?

    If you said yes to ANY of these question, then you need to care about something called mold illness.

    Mold illness is caused by being exposed to toxins that mold produced called MYCOTOXINS. It's different than a mold allergy, and so it's typically ignored completely by conventional medicine.

    Here on the Better Belly Podcast, we are having a Mold Month Series during August where every episode is dedicated to educating you about mold, how to know if you have it, and what to do about it if you do.

    This series is designed for those new to the mold conversation and those who've been in it for a while. If you're new to the idea of mold, though, you likely have a big fat question of: "Do I really need to care about this?"

    On today's episode, I'm addressing my top reasons on WHY you should be seriously considering that mold may be apart of your chronic health problems.

  • If you have a tortuous colon, redundant colon, or mega colon - do you have a life sentence to constipation? Learn the answer today.

    ----

    If you're listening to this episode, then you've likely been diagnosed with or believe you may have either a redundant colon or tortuous colon, or a mega colon. And you're wondering - if I have this, can I ever overcome my constipation?

    Unfortunately for you, doctors frequently make it sound like a redundant or tortuous colon, or a mega colon, are life sentences to constipation. They often make it sound like you have this irreversible structural problem you'll never overcome, and you either have to do a surgery (that might not help anyways), take tons of laxatives, or you just aren't going to poop daily.

    The good news is - this is NOT true.

    But I don't expect you to simply take my word for it.

    In today's episode, I'm going to dive into WHY a redundant / tortuous colon and megacolon are not life sentences to constipation, why doctors make it seem that way, and what you can do to overcome bloating and constipation in your life - even with a redundant / tortuous colon or megacolon.

  • Has your ADHD recently gotten worse? Not ADHD as a kid, but suddenly have problems with attention and forgetfulness? Mold may be the cause.

    For the last few weeks, we've been in an ADHD series where I've been breaking down the connection between your BODY and your ADHD.

    I've talked about 5 ways to make your ADHD easier to manage by healing your gut, if intermittent fasting is a hack for ADHDers who forgets to eat meals, and 2 genes to support if you have ADHD (check out gene #1 here and gene #2 here).

    On today's episode, I'm wrapping up our ADHD series with talking about a very serious and very common irritant I'm seeing taking my client's ADHD to whole new levels of intensity.

    This episode could technically fit into the episode on 5 ways to make your ADHD easier to manage by healing your gut, because one of those five things is dealing with hidden pathogens.

    But this topic is so common, complex, and honestly undiscussed, that I decided to give the conversation on ADHD and mold it's own episode.

    If you have ADHD, think you have ADHD, or struggle with forgetfulness, brain fog, inattention, irritability, or mood swings, then this episode is for you.

  • Last week, I did an episode on ADHD and the MAOA gene mutation. When I released the episode, I told ya'll that this was THE gene mutation that was connected to ADHD and it was going to be a great episode.

    Well...it was a great episode! But, as I was collecting the data for the episode, I realized that I had forgotten about another gene mutation that ALSO highly indicated ADHD.

    Drumroll please 🥁

    It is...the COMT gene mutation!

    On today's episode, I'm sharing all about the COMT gene mutation, what it's role is in the body, signs and symptoms you might have this gene mutation, and how you can support it naturally.

    I hope this episode opens your eyes, and gives you a new way to see your ADHD and how you can support yourself.

    Cheers!

  • Do you often forget to eat a meal?

    Do you ever miss a meal, or eat it late, and feel like you feel BETTER for it?

    Have you ever wondered if intermittent fasting would be right for you?

    One common question I get from clients who struggle with missing meals is - is it okay to miss meals? If I'm missing meals and feel fine without them, should I try intermittent fasting?

    These are OFTEN questions coming from clients who are ADHD or believe they may have ADHD.

    On today's episode, I'm answering questions like:

    Is it so bad to not eat or forget a meal?Is intermittent fasting a good or bad idea if you're ADHD? Dr. Ben Lynch's example for how to use intermittent fasting if you're ADHDTips to foods to keep around that are healthy and you can eat at any moment, anywhere - if you need some food ASAP

    If you have trouble eating meals consistently, then this episode is for you!

  • Today, we are continuing on with our ADHD series here on the Better Belly Podcast.

    Today, I'm going to be talking about something I just do NOT hear people talk about in the ADHD community, and that is the MAOA gene mutation.

    These gene mutation is HUGELY implicated in ADHD.

    You do not automatically have the MAOA gene mutation if you have ADHD, but if you do have this gene mutation, you can be set up for symptoms like poor focus, carb cravings, difficulty staying asleep, depression, chocolate cravings, have a tremendous amount of energy one moment then none the next, have great focus one moment then none the next, have difficulty controlling your temper, and generally crave things that will give you a dopamine hit.

    If you are looking for ways to support your ADHD than can literally make it EASIER to manage, without needing more systems to rule your life - then this episode is for you.

  • Learn how these 5 gut health strategies can make managing your ADHD easier WITHOUT more medication or mental gymnastics!

    ----

    When I first started working with clients in their gut health in 2018, I had NO awareness of ADHD or the connection between ADHD and the gut.

    However, after just a couple years of working with clients, I realized that I consistently was getting remarks from clients saying, "My ADHD is getting better!", "I can focus better!" or "Can this work possibly help ADHD? I feel like mine is better!"

    Just a few weeks ago, a client said to me: "I thought that all my distraction, irritability, and difficulty focusing might be ADHD and being a mom, but so much of my brain fog has lifted since I started these protocols!"

    My response has always been, "Great!"

    But they wanted to know...WHY?

    On today's episode, I'm diving into 5 ways your gut impacts your brain, and how you can use these 5 gut health strategies to make managing your ADHD easier.

    Whether you feel like you do or don't have gut health problems, if you know you have or THINK you have ADHD, this episode is for you!
