I have never struggled with addiction, but I think like a lot of people in their 20's, I started to heavily evaluate my relationship with alcohol after graduating college.

#32. Relationship with money, values, identity, creating a heart-centered business, happiness - all the lessons I've learned in just over one year of being a self employed health coach, influencer, content creator, & more. The lessons that have impacted me most over the last year are the ones that have nothing to do with business and everything to do with my own self-growth journey. The last 13 months have forced me into finally admitting my perfectionist tendencies, brought me face to face with my crippling fear of judgment, brought me to failure after failure, took me on a journey away from being vulnerable for fear of being a bad leader, and finally forced me to learn the lessons that universe has been waiting for me to embody in order to reach my next level. Leaving 6+ figures doing corporate consulting to a drastic pay cut as an entrepreneur, I can honestly say I'm the happiest I've ever been, and I've never had fewer answers about what my next step will be, but if there's one thing I know for sure, it's that I was meant to coach, create, lead, teach, and connect with all of you. I've never been more on purpose, but the battle of getting started has been more intense than I ever could have imagined. Let's dive into everything I've learned in year one as a self-employed woman, and the 14 tips I'd give to anyone else just getting started on their career path in this space.

#31. Non-conformity, being your favorite self, boundaries, embracing what you've been through and learned from it, being seen, confidence - and what it does to your nervous system when the world around you tells you not to embrace those things. To stay the same, for everyone else's comfort. To not show up as you. So many of this community are warriors of the self-care, self-love, self-growth club, usually forced there by a health issue that turned your world upside down. You are "doing the work" - the shadow work, the inner child healing, the rewriting of limiting beliefs, and it is HARD - you deserve to celebrate aaaaalll of it!!! But what happens when the world isn't always the most supportive of you actually embodying, embracing, and taking aligned action on all you learned along the way? How does that make us sicker? Let's unpack it all with a healthy dose of encouragement, resilience, bravery, and kindness.

#30. In this episode, we're unpacking why your nervous system should be one of your focal points as you navigate not only stomach issues, but reaching your goals too! We dive into the key things you need to know about how your nervous system works, how your digestive system gets impacted over time when your nervous system stays dysregulated, and how to embark on the journey of regulating your nervous system and expanding something called your window of tolerance - what your nervous system can hold for you without you getting triggered, snapping, diving into negative thought loops, and more. This is a POWERFUL episode if you think your IBS or gut health issues are caused by stress OR if you're at a point in your life where you don't like the way you're showing up and are craving more transformation.

#29. On today's episode, we're diving into a very big topic: BODY IMAGE (especially with bloat, IBS/SIBO, funky days, changing bodies, new diagnoses, etc). We'll unpack some major mindest shifts that will empower you to feel more at peace in your body, hopefully with compassion, patience, acceptance, and love. What you may be surprised to learn is that it doesn't have as much to do with your physical body as you may think. Isabelle shares 4 specific questions you can ask yourself to shift the way you relate better to your body on the bad days.

#28. In this episode, we're exploring a common theoretical question I get often: "Do you think you can really ever heal IBS?". Isabelle is breaking down the answer to that question and what it really looks like in practice, and why your lifestyle misalignment might be one of the biggest culprits (that you aren't looking at). We're defining what "lifestyle" components really matter in navigating changes for the sake of your health, and exactly what is happening to your nervous system (and gut!) when you're keeping habits, relationships, jobs, environments, and limiting beliefs that keep you feeling out of alignment. We also cover: How to navigate seasonal (& world pandemic!) changes that we're all experiencing right now The two halves of the big picture required to truly heal IBS The two toolkits you need to create for yourself How to do the High Vibe Low Vibe journal prompt What you should *actually* do with negative emotions & so much more Links Mentioned: High Vibe Low Vibe Life Edit 60+ Page E-Journal GUT TO SOUL CONNECTION SPRING 2022 WAITLIST BABY!!!

I've struggled with IBS-C for 15 years which eventually turned into SIBO, and while trying to figure it all out, I certainly fell into some traps that you DON'T need to, so I'm sharing them all with you here!

#22. Let's break down why it's not "JUST IBS" - duh. If you've been around the Good Gut Feelings block, you know that the approach to truly getting to the bottom of your IBS means taking a look at both diet and mindset - often with mindset being the more important stepping stone. In today's episode, we're breaking down the nitty-gritty details of the diet process AND the mindset process that has the power to bring you to true IBS healing - long term - and why one can't happen effectively without the other. Why IBS is more than just a dietary condition How the nervous system plays a role in your digestion Why our bodies grow not to trust us over time Why our safety cues that allow our nervous system to be in peace are often screwed up The dietary triggers that are NOT just FODMAP's The step by step process for exploring your dietary triggers & your mindset triggers If this episode felt supportive of you, grab one of the remaining one-on-one drop-in sessions with me for 50% off before this option to work with me is retired this Thursday - just $111 until then!

#21. On today's episode we are chatting about ALL of the things that are helping me get the F*** out of the NYC doom winter slump. The transition from fall to winter (let's be honest, anything outside of those perfect 3 days of fall) takes a while for me to adjust to, so I'm sharing my top 5 tips for feeling like my favorite self right now. The timing of this really is perfect because connecting to what you need versus what your mind wants to tell you is one of the cornerstones of the new group program that I'm launching The Gut To Soul Connection.

#20. On today's episode, we're diving into the core concept that holds us back from actually creating lasting change (no matter how many habit breaking books you've read). Isabelle explores the antidote to the feeling of WANTING to shift realities, create change, and step into your favorite self, but never feeling like anything you do truly brings about lasting change. The name of the game? Vulnerability with YOURSELF (in the RIGHT way) + resilience. When married together in the right way, the pot at the other end of the rainbow is UNSHAKEABLE self worth - and that drives all change.

In the spirit of kicking off 2022 with evolution and aligned action, on today's podcast, I am sharing what I am CHANGING in 2022. 2020-2021 brought all of us so deep, and the process of the past few months has been to honor my deepest needs, understand what I was deeply craving, and deciding that 2022 was the year that radical alignment would finally be embraced. What the f*** does that even mean? To me, reconnecting to my feminine energy, setting up a schedule that honors me filling MY cup first, allowing feelings to be felt without so much fear, and releasing old stories that no longer serve where I want to go.

#18. Meditation 2 of 2 of our end-of-year guided meditation series!!! We're sending off 2021 (BYEEEE!) with a future self guided meditation to anchor into all of the energy, vision, dreams, and energy that you desire for the new year. You'll note that this meditation asks you to START with a journal prompt before diving into the meditation, so don't skip it. The journal prompt before diving into the guided meditation is: What went well this year? Focus on feelings, ways you nourished and honored yourself, and all that you were able to accomplish OR learn about yourself as a result. Nothing has to be tangible but the way you feel - the intangibles and personal growth - counts for just as much as the tangibles. Now you may proceed to the guided meditation! It starts at 5:20. If you enjoy the meditation, screenshot it, share it on IG, and tag me at @isabellekoritsas so we can connect! Sending you all the love in the world as we tie up loose ends of this year and make room for what gets to come next! xx Isabelle PS - if this felt EXTRA aligning for you and you're interested in exploring your growth in 2022 in a grounded, expansive, and meaningful way, I want you to be the first to know that a new group program for the Gut to Soul Connection is launching in January 2022. The spots will be super limited & priority (including early bird pricing!!) will be given to those on the waitlist - JOIN HERE! XO

For when... bonus series. A little brain dump from my walk around NYC this morning - I was thinking about why people can have such ego-driven reactions to messages of positivity and love and how the inspirational messages can sound nice in the moment to read, re-pin, re-post, or scroll by, and then fall flat so shortly after. Sharing a little bit about what I've learned it means to CHOOSE LOVE this year and honor my inner child & the inner child of everyone around me. Your ability to choose love again and again is a sign of your strength, a sign that you've sat in the deepest depths of darkness and shown that darkness compassion, anger, understanding, frustration, and acceptance - and you've also come to know, too, that the darkness doesn't get turned into light - it will always exist. And we create space to make that darkness feel safe, seen, heard, protected. And then we choose to turn to the light anyway. If this resonates, DM me @isabellekoritsas and I'll start to share more brain dumps from my walks with you

#16. In today's episode, we are going there (aka vulnerability central!!). As the Good Gut Feelings brand grows to support you embodying and aligning with your favorite self (gut healing included - but not limited!), I am so excited to start to share more of my story with you. Today's episode tells the story of my emotional rock bottom - including how I got there, how long it lasted (spoiler: years), how it manifested physically (spoiler: IBS & SIBO, duh), and what my journey to truly healing and re-discovering myself looked like (and why it was so hard yet so important). We're chatting about heartbreak, the difficulty of finding yourself in college, and why cultivating self-worth is the most important piece of the healing puzzle. I hope that this conversation is expansive and supportive wherever you are or have been in your journey and if it feels triggering in any way, that you find a cozy way to support yourself. I couldn't be more excited to take Good Gut Feelings forward and explore all that gets to come next with you - and this is me going first, sharing my story, sharing my heart, and reminding you that you are safe and loved enough in this community to do this work too - I see you and am so lucky to support you!

Today we're talking boundary protection while navigating the emotional side of being home for the holidays and how to set up your holiday season to be IBS flare-free from a preventative place instead of a reactive place. Spoiler: Most of the holiday season & IBS connection tends to be about your mind-body connection and less about what is on your plate. Today I'm sharing tips, tricks, mindset hacks, and sisterly love for good gut feelings as we celebrate this season together. Reminder: you are loved and whole and enough. PS DON'T MISS!!!!

#12. In today's episode, we're chatting about just how powerful yoga can really be for healing IBS, and WHY! But first, an update on life, how I'm handling daylight savings, my thoughts one-week post IUD removal, and why I don't always want you to agree with me. The most important components of yoga for IBS might not be what you think - and you'll walk away with a lot of actionable tips. We're incorporating the power of breath, polyvagal theory, ego work, and more all into one practice that has the keys to take you from IBS flare to IBS rare over time (did you like the pun!?). I have room for a 5 more aligned "yes"es in my highest level VIP 1:1 coaching container where we treat your IBS by navigating your growth as a whole vibrant woman.

#9. Are you receptive to feeling joy yourself? Are you receptive to the people around you feeling & experiencing joy and ease? Today we're going deep, exploring concepts like: What joy really looks like in an everyday sense Why embodiment requires radical responsibility & ownership over yourself How self-worth and your willingness to receive joy informs what the universe shows you How contrast highlights what we want & what we need Being honest with craving change versus complaining and staying stuck How changing your environment is one of the most important ways you can create contrast And why all of these can feel so hard even when we want change more than anything. Making hard choices to create an easy life is not a task that feels doable without doing the inner work. What are your limiting beliefs? What exists in your shadow? What is your inherent belief about your own worth? Let's explore how this all ties together to inform what the universe shows you. If you are called to deeper support & want to begin to co-create your reality in the space of a coach, I have a handful of openings in my 1:1 coaching container. You can learn more and apply here or DM me for a no pressure conversation about if this is the right approach for us both. Like the episode? I'd love it if you subscribed, rated, & reviewed!

#8. In this episode, we're diving into the concept of intuitive exercise and how to reframe it for where you are in your physical healing journey or emotional evolution in order to SUPPORT you rather than feeling overwhelming, forced, or unaligned. We're breaking the norms of exercise "shoulds" and looking at movement in a way you may not have explored before. Growing up, we societally aren't taught to move our bodies intuitively as women - so in this episode, we are reframing the masculine structure of fitness into a more feminine flow and defining what that gets to look like for YOU in order to support your deepest healing and transformation for nervous system support and embodiment.

#7. In this episode, we are exploring how to move through feelings when journaling, talking, venting, or therapeutic modalities don't feel like enough. There is a huge cerebral component to being able to recognize your thoughts and feelings, but sometimes that isn't enough to actually clear emotions. We're exploring how to move from a cerebral experience of thoughts and feelings down into a visceral and somatic experience of feelings in order to permanently initiate clearing energy and stepping into embodiment, freedom, peace, and authenticity.

#6. In this episode, Isabelle is diving into what showing up with self-worth really means, and how to create habits and change that actually lasts. Weeding through inspirational and motivational content on social media provides a great short-term boost of productivity, but why do habits and changes you seek always fail? This episode covers it all, and what it really looks like to step into your life & take on new changes fully embodying self-worth, which, spoiler alert: is the only way to make new habits and changes really last. This is for you if you feel frustrated that nothing you set out to do really seems to last long enough to realize the changes you're seeking, and how to shift that perspective to quantum leap and shift your reality.

#4. On today's episode, Isabelle is diving into why the nervous system plays SUCH an important role in how IBS shows up for us in the body. We're diving into the adrenal system (sympathetic nervous system - fight or flight) and your parasympathetic nervous system (rest and digest) and how to control the response our body has to keep our digestion on and moving! We talk about how and why it is so addicting to stay in fight or flight when it is what we are used to in our day-to-day, and how to settle into the (sometimes boring) consistency of being in rest and digest move. We're unpacking the concept of the gut to soul connection and how our stressors and authentic alignment channel all the way back to our gut and the efficacy of our own digestion, including all the tools you need to get started on your own gut to soul connection.
