S3 E27: IBS, Gut Health & The Spirituality of Pooping | A Southern Dialogue with Laura Martin

Poop. We all do it, even witches. Pooping can even be part of your spiritual practice! In this episode, Laura and I talk about IBS and the gut-brain connection. Laura tells us about her journey with IBS and depression, and we discuss the stigma around talking about poop, gut health as well as mental health. We also discuss the connection between IBS and anxiety. Did you know that 1 in 10 people struggle with IBS symptoms? Laura gives us some great advice on healing our gut. Yep, this is the poop episode, y'all get comfy and join us!

Certified IBS Nutrition Consultant

Laura Martin is a Certified IBS Nutrition Consultant and founder of Healing to Happy – an online holistic, gut-brain-focused company that helps women suffering from IBS and Anxiety to get back to eating normally without fear of restrictions or elimination diets. After battling her way through IBS, hypothyroidism, anxiety, hormonal imbalances, and skin issues... she found herself with an unhealthy relationship with food and knew there had to be a better way...

After many failed attempts and lessons learned, she came up with a method known as the F.R.E.E. method that put her symptoms into remission without following restrictive diets or fancy supplement regimes. And yes, that nutrition routine now includes pizza without running to the bathroom. By applying this method using food, lifestyle, radical shifts in consciousness, and mindfulness practices + tools she's gone on to help hundreds of women around the globe do the same through her online courses: Signature Gut Recharge Program and 1:1 Gut Accelerator Program.
