Send us a text

Feeling fatigued? 

 

Is it because of that glass of wine you drank last night or is it something more serious?

 

In this podcast episode of the Less Stressed Life, the founder of Thriving Force, Dr. Sara DeFrancesco shares her experiences and realizations on

  • How gluten sensitivity affects our brain health
  • Our overall well-being and how it gets affected by cortisol and adrenals
  • The effects of our thoughts on the neurotransmitters and hormones in our body
  • Tips on how to put yourself in a parasympathetic "rest and heal" mode 

 

Dr. Sara DeFrancesco is a holistic, root cause Naturopathic Doctor, Licensed Acupuncturist, and the founder of Thriving Force, an investigative medicine clinic that specializes in digestive, immune, and brain health problems. Dr. DeFrancesco helps people turn their brain and health back on by healing root cause metabolic problems (like overlooked inflammatory triggers, stealth infections, and nutritional deficiencies) combined with holistic neuroscience so you can heal the cause of what is preventing you from being well. 

 

Using the synergy of holistic medicine, functional medicine testing, neuroscience, and mind-body medicine Dr. DeFrancesco partners with patients to heal digestive problems, fatigue, insomnia, anxiety, depression, brain fog, memory problems, and autoimmune-neurological conditions. This approach focuses on investigating and identifying the root cause of your health problems to remove obstacles to healing and correct imbalances, allowing dysfunctional systems to heal.

17 Jul 2017#002 Debilitating back injury to dominating life with registered nurse Helen Eimers00:59:15

Send us a text

This episode really embodies 3Rs for me: real, raw and relatable. Today you'll meet a registered nurse that works with worker's compensation cases for a living and ironically awoke one day with a debilitating back injury--2 herniated discs that left her unable to function. She talks about crawling across the floor to help her children, voraciously seeing doctors and seeking opinions and how she got though the pain before a break in the clouds. While her approach was very "whole" and multi dimensional, Helen shares the biggest things that took her from the surgery schedule to painless in just a couple of weeks--reducing the stressful inflammation in her life through diet and personal development. Please consider sharing this episode with someone you love that could be helped by Helen's story.  You can click on the 3 dots (...) in the lower right corner and select "Share episode". We can't wait to hear your feedback in the Reviews section of iTunes and spend more time in your ears in coming weeks as we work toward a less stressed life. XO, Christa

Send us a text

"Hey doc, what can I do about bloating?...how about this nausea?"


 In this episode with humble and superfun mad (food) scientist Dustin James, MD we talk about natural remedies for motion sickness, mroning sickness, stomach aches, nausea, and bloating this gastroenterologist created as a solution for his patients. And for you! We discuss how the creation of a "food product" came with an interesting learning curve, how the Doctor is on a quest to make gluten free wheat (okay, that's a sequel episode) and how Tummy Drops are helping cancer patients negate the side effects of chemotherapy. We discuss the natural plant extracts that make all off this possible and set off to save the world by talking about solutions for healthcare reform. Ha. Enjoy!

*If you're a healthcare provider, definitely get in touch with Tummy Drops to get samples for your patients. :)

Send us a text

Jim Stavis was the first person to ever survive a triple organ transplant. 

When he was 17, he was told he'd be lucky to live past his 50th birthday. At that time, he was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes. Doctors expected him to be plagued by kidney and heart disease, blindness and amputation before succumbing to diabetes at a young age.

He recently celebrated his 65th birthday.

So what's the secret to his ability to grow a successful steel company (which at its peak was generating over $25 million) while raising a family and stay resilient in the face of incredible adversity?

In his new book 'When Hope is Your Only Option' and award-winning documentary 'Source of Hope,’ Jim reveals the incredible secret to his survival.

During this interview, Jim provides a three-step plan to overcome adversity, which he calls Endure, Hope, and Prevail. Each has its own blueprint and he shares how to deal with a negative set of health circumstances and how he built a successful business and life.

He also shares about how he’s dealt with stress in his life and in business.

23 Feb 2022#222 Foods that affect migraines and other novel treatment approaches with Danielle Aberman, RD of Migraine Strong00:45:15

Send us a text

This week on the Less Stressed Life Podcast, I talk to Danielle Aberman, RD of Migraine Strong about the challenges of treating migraine clients and the multi-modality approach to really help reduce migraine days. Danielle shares her expertise and personal experience in battling migraines. She candidly shares the different options and explains, it usually takes more than one slice of the "Treatment Pie".


KEY TAKEAWAYS:

  • Headache vs Migraine
  • Migraine symptoms
  • Hormonal component of migraine
  • Migraine with aura
  • Treatment is a multi-modality process- diet alone likely won't do it
  • Vestibular migraine- differences
  • Challenges of migraine & diet
  • Natural approaches for migraine relief- headache caps- cold tech, ginger, lamps- allay, glasses, CBD oil, essential oils-lavender & peppermint
  • Acute medications prescribed by a headache specialist


DANIELLE SHARED HELPFUL TIPS ON:

  • Evaluating migraine onset and timing, what to rule out
  • Treatment Pie- pieces of the puzzle to help you get better
  • Pieces of the "Treatment Pie"-Medications, diet, intentional movement, sleep, hydration, meditation, therapy, supplements
  • Diet changes to help manage migraines-most common food triggers
  • Heal your headache/Migraine diet-tyramine, histamine, glutamate issues
  • Charleston diet- more restrictive, low sugar, low carbs, stabilizing blood sugar



MENTIONED IN THIS EPISODE:

  • Less Stressed Life Podcast episode #192 Mastering Migraines with Dr. Adam Harcourt


ABOUT DANIELLE:

Danielle is a registered dietitian who left the field of nutrition many years ago but returned after her diagnosis of chronic migraine. This happened as she realized how few resources were available for this common and sometimes debilitating condition. Migraine-oriented eating can mean many things as there is no one "migraine diet" that helps everyone or fits into their lifestyle. So that she could help people beyond just diet and nutrition, Danielle became a certified health and wellness coach. Managing stubborn migraine often requires a multimodality approach.


Danielle lives in Florida with her husband and daughter and enjoys adventures with her family, spending time in her garden, and cooking for friends and family.

02 Mar 2022#223 Disordered eating, sports nutrition and emotional impact gastrointestinal issues with Dr. Heather Finley, RD00:41:01

Send us a text

Today on The Less Stressed Life Podcast I am joined by Dr. Heather Finley as she bravely shares her story and struggles with GI issues, her educational adventure and how she became the practitioner she is today.

ABOUT GUEST:

Dr. Heather Finley is a Registered Dietitian with a Doctorate in Clinical Nutrition. Dr. Heather struggled with her own gut health issues and chronic constipation for 2 decades which left her confused about food, her social life in shambles and food guilt at an all time high. She went to college to study to be a dietitian thinking she could solve her problems and instead of having clarity for why she was constipated, she was more confused than ever. When she started her doctorate program focused on a functional approach to clinical nutrition, a lightbulb went off in her head and her entire mindset towards nutrition and gut health completely transformed.

This was when she began to realize that nutrition for gut health is so much more than what you eat. She then realized that individuals shouldn’t have to get a degree to fix their gut issues. That’s why, over the last decade, Dr. Heather has developed a proven approach to gut health that actually WORKS! – the gutTogether™ program. This 6-month program helps her clients get to the root cause of constipation and bloat so they can enjoy life with food freedom and confidence.

06 Apr 2022#228 How we are missing subclinical hypothyroidism: "Your labs are fine, but you're not fine" thyroid edition with Christa Biegler, RD00:26:15

Send us a text

Hair loss, cold hands and feel and feeling tired are the big three for a sluggish thyroid. But relapsing gut issues, slow motility, sleep disruption, brain fog, slow metabolism, inflammation, low mood or anxiety, and dry skin can all be symptoms of a sluggish thyroid.  


In this episode, we talk about how we’ve had to change how we’re approaching thyroid health in practice to ensure clients feel their best and maintain their results.  


We talk about “dead ringers” of thyroid symptoms, blood versus tissue labs, thyroid nutrient cofactors and steps to take if you’re checking the boxes but not getting answers yet.  


If you’re experiencing the issues mentioned in this episode (tired, gut symptoms, etc) and want testing + support, you can get it from our program Food Sensitivity Solutions & The Fatigue Fix. In it, we correct imbalances in the gut with testing and fill in the nutrient gaps (based on testing) depriving the thyroid of working properly.

  1. I'm hosting a LIVE Ask Christa call for RDs & licensed health professionals (MDs, PA, NP, DC, PT, etc) in July.  Space is limited to 20 seats & anything is on the table except legal questions. Learn more and register here (fast!) www.askchrista.com

  2. Heather sent this sweet message to my guest Bea after episode #229 aired with her live mashup breathwork and thetahealing : I had the MOST profound experience through your work on the podcast The Less Stressed Life. 

  3. >> Listen to the episode and do the 15 min breathwork session at the end to feel all the feels!  https://open.spotify.com/episode/4uHAR0s3vjG9cgM1Fj9Obp?si=scLX7n6ARd6hU4kR6kT9YA Episode #229

  4. Frankie asked: What can I do for more energy and weight loss with hypothyroidism? I considered intermittent fasting but not sure what that would look like. 

    *I will mention that I work with a lot of subclinical (undiagnosed) thyroid issues but if you have a known diagnosis and have been on the medication train a while, another amazing resource is also ChewsFoodWisely (my friend Nicole Fennell, MS, RD runs this practice and she is a doll). 

  5. Melissa asked: If one were to want a consult with you ? How would I go about that and does insurance ever cover ? …. I grew up going to - what I would call a healer … had major gut issues in college and he told me some certain foods to avoid and changed everything - I still avoid them - but within the last year I’ve developed a rash on both shins … some on my scalp … and no medicine is curing it … I have a strong inclining it could be gut related .. food allergy- something ….. and just kind of wondering some next possible steps I could take.

    *I answered all these and more and made sure to address the role of conventional GI vs functional GI and then what to do in failed functional GI work!

10 Jun 2022#238 RAW: What to do if you have symptoms of low and high cortisol AKA feeling like you have adrenal fatigue or HPA axis dysfunction with Christa Biegler, RD00:45:20

Send us a text

Warning: This is a raw/unedited recording of my discussing the below outline on an IG live due to many many comments on an IG post on my account about high vs low cortisol. You can view that original post here: https://www.instagram.com/p/Cd9ZOx5huGj/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link 

>> Ask Christa live session for health professionals in July: www.askchrista.com (LIMITED to 20 seats) 
_____________________________________________________________________________________________

  • Couple years ago ran an "adrenal resilience reset" and here are some of the principles I discussed in that program: 
  • Normal cortisol curve
    • Programmed by circadian rhythm: eating, sunlight, etc 
  • Where cortisol comes from and other hormones produced by the adrenals and their roles. 
    • 76% of health professionals show signs of burnout 
  • Gas pedal/gas tank: resilience 
    • CV-resilience issues and mitochondrial degradation
  • What to do: stop killing cells 
    • 3 pronged approach from PHYSIOLOGY standpoint : 
      • Minerals 
      • Mitochondrial support
      • Custom adrenal support (might look like adaptogenic mushrooms, ashwaganda, valerian root, magnolia, lemon balm, magnesium, glandulars, licorice, etc. I mention L-theanine and GABA as favorites for anxiety as well and calming support). This will depend if high OR low and what you tolerate. 
        • I also talk about why people DON'T tolerate things and answer off the cuff questions about headaches, etc, 

    • NON-negotiables for lifestyle: 
      • Sleep 7-10 hours 
      • Limbic system work/neural pathway retraining
      • Gut/mold/etc issues  
      • Eat enough regularly at reg intervals every 4ish hours PFC 
      • LIFESTYLE: what is stresing you out? talking fast? appt to appt? 
      • Exercise changes 
      • Night shift

13 Jul 2022#244 I think I like you with Clara Artschwager, having a relationship without losing yourself, reading the room, seeking permission00:35:40

Send us a text

This week on The Less Stressed Life Podcast, I am joined by Clara Artschwager we dive into all things relationships like having a relationship without losing yourself and how relationships affect how we present in the world.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

  • "Your mess becomes your message."

GUEST SHARED HELPFUL TIPS ON:

  • Rewiring experiences & seeing the way in which we hold patterns
  • Attracting healthy love
  • Using writing for your self-healing work.

ABOUT GUEST:
I’m a dating and relationships coach and a writer. I often say I’m like the dating coach for folks that would never hire a dating or relationships coach, largely because I don’t actually believe marriage or relationships are the be-all-end-all. Are we wired for connection? Absolutely. But do I feel that comes in a variety of forms? Indeed.

I wanted a relationship, to be sure. But I also wanted a way of seeking it that didn’t feel me with anxiety and dread (or the notion that I had to treat dating like a job). And once in a relationship, I wanted a partnership that didn’t rob me of my own life.

I found most dating and relationships rhetoric— from five-step plans to Get the Guy to Instagram tropes on how to love myself (and now!)—to fall flat. Really flat. I wanted a more nuanced conversation around love and partnership. Why did I want it but also, in a way, fear it? What made it so uniquely hard for me? And so on and so forth. Women, and yes, some men, who jive with that conversation, are the ones who thrive in my programs and work.

You can also apply to become a client now and get your case reviewed right now in August to get started in September.  https://www.christabiegler.com/fss

Here are some dead ringer mold symptoms if you have 2-3 of them: 

  • Nasal sores
  • Unproductive sore throat 
  • Joint pain, especially in hands/feet 
  • Lichen Schlerosus or sharp vaginal pain 
  • Lymph node swelling 
  • Increased allergies 
  • Itching on the base of the scalp, especially at night 
  • Significant negative "detox reactions" f
  • Mouth sores from citric acid 
  • Chronic sinus congestion or throat clearing 


If going through the symptoms is a little fast, here is a version of Dr. Jill Christa's mold questionnaire. I find people that score at least a 7 are positive for mycotoxins.

But I also think people don't check all the potential boxes (histamine issues, etc).

In this episode, I answered listener questions from Mary Kay, Abee, & Charly:

  • Mary Kay asked: Are there blood tests that should be requested to know inflammation levels? 
  • Mark Kay gives us a little more information and shares her case in more depth.
    • CRC survivor.  Previous radiation, chemo and surgery.  
    •  Gut hasn't been the same since.  
    • Too much fiber feels like it doesn't digest
    • Too little fiber results in constipation.
    • Fingers have trigger finger, which I believe is from inflamation
    • Stomach is often upset.  
    • Seems like cooked veggies digest better for me
    • Eat a lot of fish.  Anything inflammatory I should know?
    • Is coffee ok?
  • Abee asked :  How can I normalize autoimmune disorders? I'm  trying to conceive and facing higher thyroid antibodies and antisperm antibodies are positive.  How it can be resolved naturally by diet, and lifestyle changes.
  • Charly asked : How to manage a well-rounded diet without worrying about restriction or if you are overeating?
  • Charly gives us a little more information and shares her case in more depth
    •   I’ve had awful periods ever since I was a teenager, but since I was diagnosed with Graves’ disease last year my health has slowly been declining.
    •  I cut out gluten and tried to limit my dairy intake but no matter what I do my stomach always feels bloated and rock hard, almost like I can’t relax the muscles. 
    • My periods have got worse, and recently I was told I may have endometriosis. 
    • The doctor said I needed to go on the pill, which I did, but unfortunately this just made me feel severely depressed so came off it after a month. 
    • Since then my periods have got worse and I’m feeling lost. 
    • Having the doctor say the only options is pill or surgery left me feeling very hopeless. I know stress doesn’t help, but I can’t seem to shake this feeling of hopelessness.

  • Different debt pay-down options

ABOUT GUEST:
This multiple six-figure entrepreneur and Forbes Coaches Council member grew up on food stamps, below the poverty line. As a kid the only thing she understood about money was that her family didn't have it. Her fear of finances carried on into her twenties, where she faced eviction, mountains of debt, and the consequences of every financial mistake a person can make. After becoming an entrepreneur, she realized that earning more was only a fraction of the equation. It was then that she committed to fully transforming her relationship with money. In a few short years, Hannah went from a negative net worth to becoming an investor, owning multiple properties, and building tangible wealth. Her own journey of financial liberation catalyzed the work she does today.

Hannah helps entrepreneurial leaders build wealth and become well-resourced by cultivating financial stability, sovereignty, and sustainability. Her commitment to closing the wealth gap inspired her to found The LeadWell Summit in 2021, an annual global wealth event. It's free to all participants and will be hosted again on October 17th - 21st.

The LeadWell Summit is a self-funded, grassroots platform for real, practical, and transformative discussions about building tangible wealth with world-renowned authors, speakers, and educators.

24 Oct 2022#263 Lymph Love with Leah Levitan00:49:58

Send us a text

This week on The Less Stressed Life Podcast, I am joined by Leah Levitan. We dive into all things related to the lymphatic system, including signs and symptoms of lymph stagnation, how to facilitate lymph drainage, and the importantance of minerals for lymph drainage.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:

  • Lymph nodes versus Lymph symptoms
  • Definition of Lymph drainage
  • What makes lymph stagnant
  • Symptoms and signs of lymph stagnation
  • The importance of minerals for lymph drainage


GUEST SHARED HELPFUL TIPS ON:

  • Where to start with lymph drainage
  • How to continue to move the lymph if you are injured or bedridden



ABOUT GUEST:

Leah is a licensed massage therapist, Vodder Method certified lymphatic drainage specialist, massage therapist instructor, and online educator. 

In her Austin clinic, she assists and supports women as they navigate their unique healing journeys. She approaches the body with brain-based myofascial bodywork and Manual Lymphatic Drainage to harness the healing power of the lymphatic system. that has proven to be a valuable missing miss to their migraine, autoimmune, chronic fatigue, EDS, hormone imbalance, and endometriosis symptoms. 

She is the founder of Lymph Love Club, which started out in 2020, with some silly videos that contained tips and tricks for her clients to help them keep up the lymph work at home. The response was overwhelming and it turns out that chronic folks who've slipped through the cracks of traditional medicine also needed this information and were ready to learn about, rebuild trust, and take ownership of their body's innate healing capabilities. 

With all the healing journeys she's witnessed firsthand, she started to build out her first online course (Intro To Lymph Flow) and has become a women's health + self-love advocate in the process. Through her own self-healing journey of transitioning off of birth control and reversing her dense breast tissue with MLD, she's helped raise awareness about breast and reproductive health to help others gain autonomy in their healing.
