    Cassandra Gray (Helixona) - Beyond Symptom Management: Building a Better Model for Chronic Illness

    In this episode, Leigh Ann welcomes Cassandra Gray, co-founder of Helixona, for an inside look at a new model of care designed for people navigating complex chronic illness. Cassandra shares how her own experience with Lyme disease, mold toxicity, and mast cell activation—combined with 25 years in healthcare management—inspired her to help build the kind of clinic she wished had existed during her own health journey. They explore Helixona’s “Eliminate, Nourish, Repair” philosophy, why the order and timing of treatments matter, and how comprehensive diagnostics, IV therapies, EBOO, laser therapy, Rife technology, nanobaths, and other modalities can be thoughtfully integrated into a personalized plan of care. Cassandra also explains Helixona’s unusual commitment to fighting for insurance coverage and why addressing the nervous system and emotional side of illness is considered an integral part of recovery. Finally, Leigh Ann and Cassandra discuss Leigh Ann’s upcoming move into Helixona, their plans to develop new patient programs together, and their shared vision for making truly integrative care more collaborative and accessible.

    Dr. Galit Atlas - The Inner Children We Carry Into Our Adult Relationships

    Leigh Ann welcomes Dr. Galit Atlas back to The Accrescent Podcast to discuss her new book Come Closer and the childhood wounds that shape adult intimacy. Dr. Atlas explains how our earliest experiences with love, attachment, loss, fear, shame, and family roles become carried forward into our adult relationships, often creating the paradox of longing for closeness while also fearing it. Leigh Ann and Dr. Atlas explore several of the child self-states from the book, including the frightened child, the melancholic child, the ashamed child, the invisible child, and the chosen child. They discuss how these younger parts of us may show up as fear of intimacy, difficulty with endings, shame and blame cycles, hyper-independence, emotional hiding, enmeshment, or an inability to fully separate from a parent. Dr. Atlas also shares how therapy can become a secure base and a reliable witness, helping people identify the children they still carry and begin relating to them with more awareness and compassion. This conversation invites listeners to see their relationship patterns not as random failures, but as meaningful clues pointing back to the childhood wounds that still need to be seen, understood, and integrated.

    Christina Woods - Can Hypnotherapy Help Rewrite Subconscious Beliefs?

    Leigh Ann welcomes clinical hypnotherapist Christina Woods for a conversation on hypnotherapy, subconscious beliefs, medical trauma, and why insight alone often is not enough to create lasting change. Christina shares how a season of major life transition, burnout, and 24/7 vertigo led her to discover hypnotherapy and eventually leave a 30-year corporate career to help others access deeper subconscious healing. She explains hypnotherapy as a natural, focused state of mind that allows the conscious mind to quiet while the subconscious becomes more accessible, revealing the beliefs and narratives that may be driving behaviors, symptoms, relationships, and patterns. Leigh Ann and Christina discuss how beliefs like “I’m not enough,” “I’m alone,” or “I can’t trust anyone” can form early in life, often from experiences that may not look traumatic on the surface but still shaped the nervous system and psyche. They also explore medical trauma, including how dismissive or invasive medical experiences can accumulate in the body and later show up as anxiety, panic, claustrophobia, avoidance, sleep disruption, or a loss of trust in medical care.

    Dr. Stasha Gominak - The Nutrient Deficiencies That May Be Disrupting Your Sleep

    Leigh Ann welcomes Dr. Stasha Gominak for a deep dive into sleep, as well as vitamin D, B vitamins, the microbiome, pain, repair, and why many sleep issues may be misunderstood. Dr. Gominak shares how her work as a neurologist with headache patients unexpectedly led her into sleep research after discovering that many young, otherwise healthy women had abnormal sleep studies even when they did not have sleep apnea. She explains why sleep studies can be overly reductive when they focus only on apnea, while missing deeper issues with REM sleep, deep sleep, paralysis, repair, and brainstem function. Leigh Ann and Dr. Gominak discuss the role of vitamin D as a hormone, why blood levels may matter more than generic dosing, and how bringing vitamin D levels up helped some patients sleep better before later revealing deeper B vitamin and microbiome-related issues. Dr. Gominak also explains her evolving understanding of the impact that B5, acetylcholine, gut bacteria, inflammation, and IBS have on the parasympathetic nervous system.

    Christine Lee (Cereset) - Rewiring the Brain to Find Balance After Trauma and Nervous System Dysregulation

    Leigh Ann welcomes Christine Lee of Cereset Mission Viejo for a conversation on brain optimization, trauma, nervous system regulation, sleep, and what it means to let the brain rebalance itself. Christine shares her personal story of living with stress, insomnia, trauma, and deep nervous system dysregulation before discovering Cereset as a client and eventually purchasing the practice herself. She explains how Cereset uses read-only EEG sensors and AI-generated acoustic tones to create a “brain echo,” allowing the brain to hear itself and identify where it may be energetically out of balance. Leigh Ann and Christine discuss the difference between supporting the brain’s “hardware” and doing deeper emotional “software” work, especially for clients whose systems feel too hijacked for meditation, breathwork, journaling, or somatic practices to land. They also explore how Cereset may support people navigating trauma, insomnia, concussion, mood dysregulation, medication tapering goals, chronic illness, cancer, mold, mast cell activation, and nervous system overwhelm.

Leigh Ann also shares how much thought and intention went into the decision, including the grief of leaving her current space, the excitement of joining a more medically integrated environment, and the responsibility she feels toward her in-person clients. The conversation highlights Helixona’s values, patient-centered care, comprehensive modalities, and shared belief that emotional healing must be part of complex chronic illness treatment. This episode offers listeners an inside look at why this move matters, what will and will not change for clients, and what new offerings may be possible in the future.

    Nadine Artemis (Living Libations) - The Ancient Beauty Wisdom We Forgot

    Leigh Ann welcomes Nadine Artemis, founder of Living Libations, for a conversation on ancestral beauty, essential oils, oil cleansing, oral care, and what modern skincare may be getting wrong. Nadine shares how her childhood in nature, early fascination with perfume, and discovery of essential oils eventually led her to open one of North America’s first full-concept aromatherapy stores and create Living Libations. She explains why she looks to ancient beauty practices and pre-synthetic traditions to understand what the skin, mouth, and body actually need to stay in harmony. Leigh Ann and Nadine discuss the skin microbiome, oil cleansing, synthetic ingredients, hyaluronic acid, retinol, vitamin C, essential oils, deodorant, oral care, and the ways modern products can sometimes create dependency loops rather than true repair. Nadine also shares practical starting points for simplifying skincare, including using high-quality oils to cleanse, swapping out toxic toothpaste, and choosing products that support rather than disrupt the body’s innate intelligence.

    Dr. Melanie Icard - The Root Causes We’re Missing in Heart Disease

    Leigh Ann welcomes Dr. Melanie Icard for a conversation on heart health, heart disease, metabolism, stress, and what conventional cardiac care often misses. Dr. Icard shares how losing her mother to breast cancer at a young age, becoming a mother herself, and later reversing her own pre-diabetes led her into naturopathic medicine and metabolic healing. She explains why cholesterol alone does not tell the full story of cardiovascular risk and why plaque, inflammation, insulin resistance, chronic stress, and lifestyle patterns all need to be addressed together. Leigh Ann and Dr. Icard discuss testing tools like comprehensive labs, continuous glucose monitors, Cleerly imaging, and carotid artery screening, along with practical interventions like intermittent fasting, circadian eating, movement after meals, herbal detoxing, gut support, and reducing seed oils. Dr. Icard also emphasizes that many heart patients are high-functioning doers who hold everything together, rarely ask for support, and may be living in chronic survival mode even if they appear healthy on the outside.
