What a Thai Meditation Retreat & Histamine Detox Taught Me About Running a Business
The Remote CEO Life Podcast
Feeling fatigued, brain-fogged, or stuck by chronic histamine intolerance or burnout? Yep, me too!
Here’s what happens when you combine a strict diet for histamine intolerance with a 4-day silent meditation retreat in Thailand?
In this solo episode of The Remote CEO Life podcast, I share my personal journey through an intense meditation retreat, a gut-focused detox, and how both radically shifted my mindset, energy, and business.
I share my story about living with histamine intolerance, why I needed a total gut reset, and what I learned about myself - and business - by walking in silence for four hours a day whilst cutting out sugar, gluten, dairy, and processed foods.
Here’s what I unpack in this episode:
- How chronic stress and cortisol levels affected my health and work
- Why I chose a silent meditation retreat in Thailand and gut reset detox as part of my healing
- What walking in silence for four hours a day taught me about control, focus, and surrender
- Why taking space is essential for mental clarity, leadership, and sustainable productivity
If you’ve ever struggled with burnout, dietary restrictions, or felt misaligned in your business - this one will resonate. It’s about healing, reflection, and letting go of pressure so you can show up from a place of wholeness.
