    Feeling stuck with chronic symptoms, "normal" test results, and no clear plan?

    Feeling stuck with chronic symptoms, normal test results, and no clear plan? Rita De Michele speaks with Functional Medicine health coach Chloe Barrett about why healing can feel so fragmented when providers do not communicate, and how an integrated care team approach can help you finally connect the dots. They talk about whole person healing for chronic invisible illness, emotional overwhelm, and complex health challenges, including how to reduce the cognitive load, support your nervous system, and make sustainable progress with small, intentional steps that actually stick.
