    Adrenal Fatigue, Chronic Stress & Burnout: The Body’s Call for Support

    In this episode, Dr. Maame-Mensima Horne (Naturopathic Doctor and Clinical Hypnotherapist) and Health Empowerment Coach Joanna Mickel sit down with Dr. Doris-Owanda Johnson, licensed acupuncturist, herbalist, nutritionist, and founder of the Heart & Soul Institute of Natural Medicine, to explore the deeper roots of adrenal fatigue and burnout. Together, they unpack how chronic stress is more than an emotional experience—it’s a physiological cascade that impacts hormones, immunity, digestion, and long-term vitality. Through the lens of East Asian medicine, Dr. Doris discusses how specific acupuncture approaches, herbal medicine, and functional strategies can help restore balance in the face of chronic stress and adrenal depletion. She explains how gentle, individualized treatment supports the body in rebuilding its reserves and recovering from burnout. In this conversation, you’ll discover: • Subtle signs of adrenal depletion and impending burnout • How gut health and hormonal pathways intertwine • Why “resource-building” (rest, nourishment, emotional support) is foundational for healing • How acupuncture, herbal medicine, and integrative care support resilience • Why pushing the body too hard can create healing setbacks This episode is an invitation to slow down, listen to your body, and approach healing with reverence instead of force. Whether you’re an overwhelmed professional, a practitioner, or someone navigating unexplained fatigue, this conversation offers grounded, holistic tools to help you rebuild from within. Dr. Doris Johnson has been serving patients since 1993 and is described by many as a blend of old-fashioned medicine woman, modern integrative healer, and lifesaver. She holds a MATCM from Yo San University and a Ph.D. in Oriental Medicine from American Liberty University. A passionate educator, herbal alchemist, Tai Chi practitioner, and community activist, she has taught at Daoist Traditions College and Wongu University and volunteered with Acupuncturists Without Borders in Haiti. Her life’s work centers on helping individuals reclaim radiant, balanced health—body, mind, emotions, and spirit. Tune in and discover how resource-based healing can help you reclaim your energy and your life.

    Food Is Medicine, Part 2: Food, Hormones, and Creating Balance

    In this episode, Dr. Maame-Mensima Horne (Naturopathic Doctor and Clinical Hypnotherapist) and Health Empowerment Coach Joanna Mickel explore how food choices shape hormones, chronic disease risk, and mental well-being. Through both modern research and traditional wisdom, they unpack how nutrition serves as a foundation for neurotransmitter balance, immune resilience, and long-term vitality. Together, they discuss how life stages, stress, and environmental exposures influence nutritional needs, and examine fascinating examples from traditional diets and human adaptation to nutrient deficiencies. The conversation highlights the role of key micronutrients—such as iron, zinc, selenium, iodine, and vitamin D—in thyroid function, brain health, and immune regulation, as well as the growing impact of pesticides, herbicides, and ultra-processed foods on nutrient absorption and chronic illness. They also bridge perspectives from naturopathic medicine and Chinese medicine, exploring the gut-brain axis, blood sugar regulation, and the energetic balance of yin and yang through food. Topics include hydration strategies, herbal infusions, and electrolytes; the effects of artificial dyes and sweeteners on brain health and hyperactivity; and how traditional food systems contrast with today’s fast, industrialized diets. Throughout the episode, they emphasize mindful eating, the relationship we have with food, and how nourishment extends beyond calories to include awareness, balance, and intention. Tune in for a grounded, integrative conversation that reframes nutrition as a powerful tool for hormonal harmony, mental clarity, and whole-body healing.
