  • Do you ever feel like no matter what you do, you always end up with the same result? In this episode, we're talking with Ashok Gupta about neuroplasticity and how we can retrain our brains to get healthier. He shares how we can manage conditions like fibromyalgia, chronic fatigue, and mold illness in a way that traditional healthcare often overlooks.


    Ashok Gupta is an internationally renowned Speaker, Filmmaker & Health Practitioner who has dedicated his life to supporting people through chronic illness, and achieving their potential. Ashok suffered from ME, or Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, around 25 years ago when he was studying at Cambridge University. Through neurological research that he conducted, he managed to get himself 100% better. He then set up a clinic to treat others, and then published the well-known neuroplasticity “limbic retraining” recovery program and app known as the Gupta Program in 2007. He has published several medical papers, including randomized controlled trials on Long Covid, ME/CFS, and fibromyalgia, showing that the treatment is effective, and he is continually researching these conditions.

  • Dealing with thyroid symptoms or related issues, like Hashimoto's? In this episode, we sit down with Ryan Monahan of the Mindful Nutrivore to talk about how to holistically address the root causes of thyroid issues. We explore 4 key aspects of thyroid dysfunction: infections, toxin exposure, nutrient deficiencies, and stress. The main takeaway? It's not just about quick fixes; it's about understanding and supporting your thyroid health with longterm nutrition and lifestyle shifts.


    Ryan Monahan is a Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner (FDN-P) Level III, clinical advisor, nationally board certified with the National Board of Health and Wellness Coaches, and certified Autoimmune Protocol Coach with a passion for uncovering hidden stressors that contribute to thyroid disease. Ryan spent over 10 years visiting more than 40 health professionals to find answers to his chronic health complaints until being diagnosed with Hashimoto’s in 2012. Since then, his mission has been to change the dialogue about chronic disease towards a holistic, functional approach. With the help of cutting edge functional lab work, Ryan helps his clients to identify the true root causes of their primary health challenges so that they can stop wasting time and resources, and start living their best life. Typically, his clients are those who have struggled with finding relief from their autoimmune symptoms. Oftentimes, they feel that they’ve “tried everything”, and that traditional medicine hasn’t served them. In his experience, there is a better way.


    In this episode, you'll learn more about:

    4 key areas of thyroid dysfunction and supportUnderstanding thyroid testing and markersWhy thyroid medications impact everyone differently
