32. Thyroid Cancer, Holistic Healing, and Low Toxic-Living
On this week’s episode, I share my conversation with Jennifer Stevens, Holistic Nutrition Practitioner and Thyroid Cancer Survivor. We talk all about Jen’s experiences with anxiety pre-cancer, leading to a very unexpected diagnosis in her late 30s. Jen shares her decision to forgo radiation in favor of surgery and holistic healing, and how that led her into her new career helping others.
In addition to her healing journey, Jen brings us into what life is like off the grid in Costa Rica, sharing her wisdom on low-tox living and her perspective on Western excess. We even touch on how ADHD brains thrive in purpose driven settings, how the MTHFR gene mutation interferes with alcohol metabolism, and how high-stress lifestyles fuel anxiety disorders.
