Gutsy Health | Nutrition and Medicine Juanique Roney & Gina Worful

“Our soul is with us in every moment, seeing our ups and downs, holding love and compassion. And when we courageously tap into this part of ourselves, an entire world of possibilities, connection, and fulfillment opens up.”


Tired of trying various treatments, diets, and medications but still not getting complete relief from your symptoms? 


Wondering if there's an unseen energetic component to illness that modern medicine ignores?


Could addressing past issues or unresolved trauma be the key to finding the underlying cause of your condition?


If these questions resonate, then you’re in the right place. 


Join us this week as we speak with Kristi Worful, founder of The SANGA School of Transformational Arts and Sciences. Kristi shares why it can be challenging to unlock the soul piece in our healing journey, and the obstacles that may be preventing us from making progress. She also guides us toward understanding the root cause of our issues and how to access our higher selves to initiate true, inside-out healing. 


We believe in bridging science and soul to offer a more holistic mind-body-spirit perspective to healing. Tune in now to listen to the episode and learn more!
