    How to Know When to Invest In Your Hashimoto's Healing Journey

    How to Know When to Invest In Your Hashimoto's Healing Journey

    If you're on the fence, if you're thinking, I have brain fog, I'm told to trust my gut, but I have gut dysbiosis and I'm bloated all the time, how do I know when to invest in my health? That is what we're going to answer today. Investing in our health can be very expensive, especially if we're going on the functional medicine route.
    I'll bust some of the beliefs and very real fears that we tell ourselves, some of the limiting beliefs, and the dialogue in our head to talk us out of investing in ourselves. But investing in our health is the most important thing. There is nothing more important, and you don't realize that until you hit the darkest steps of your Hashimoto's diagnosis.
    There is a Memorial Day SALE of up to 20% off Thyroid Strong starting May 27th until May 31st. I you want to boost your energy, lose weight and learn how to work out without the burnout, now is the time.
    Go to: www.dremilykiberd.com/programoptions to join for up to 20% off with some epic bonuses, but only Wednesday May 31st.

    Where to Start When You're Overwhelmed with your Hashimoto's Diagnosis

    Where to Start When You're Overwhelmed with your Hashimoto's Diagnosis

    In today's Thyroid Strong solo shortie episode, I sit down to talk about where to start when you feel overwhelmed with your Hashimoto's diagnosis or when you don't know where to start. I share the Big 3 Trigger Trifecta's of Hashimoto's: Genetics, Leaky Gut, and Stressors including emotional stress, environmental stress, and trauma. I like to start with the hierarchy of treating thyroid hormones, adrenal issues, and gut health first before addressing sex hormones and insulin resistance. But before addressing these, you need to get your foundational health right including: how you're eating, how you're working out, and how you're sleeping.
    If you want a deeper dive, join the Free 5-day challenge, the Thyroid Revolution: a mix of workouts and masterclasses. Join here, it's not too late: www.dremilykiberd.com/revreplay/
