What if resilience isn't about pushing harder, but about learning how to move forward with grace, courage, and joy when life doesn't go according to plan? In this powerful conversation, Dr. Mariza sits down with bestselling author, speaker, coach, and podcast host Amberly Lago to discuss resilience, overcoming adversity, and finding purpose through life's most difficult challenges. After surviving a devastating motorcycle accident that nearly took her life, enduring dozens of surgeries, and being diagnosed with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome (CRPS), Amberly faced years of chronic pain, uncertainty, and reinvention. Rather than allowing her circumstances to define her, she chose to build a life rooted in resilience, gratitude, faith, community, and purpose. Together, they explore the mindset shifts that help women move through difficult seasons, the role of gratitude in healing, why joy is a daily practice rather than a destination, and how small habits can create profound transformation over time. Whether you're navigating health challenges, career transitions, relationship struggles, or simply feeling stuck, this conversation offers practical tools and powerful encouragement to help you move forward with greater confidence and hope. AMBERLY LAGO Amberly Lago is a bestselling author, resilience coach, TEDx speaker, top-ranked podcast host, and motivational speaker. After surviving a catastrophic motorcycle accident and living with Complex Regional Pain Syndrome, she transformed her personal challenges into a mission to help others build resilience, find joy, and create meaningful lives despite adversity. She is the author of multiple books, including Joy Through the Journey and True Grit and Grace. IN THIS EPISODE How resilience is built through daily decisions and small actions Amberly's remarkable recovery journey after a life-changing accident Why gratitude can shift your mindset during difficult seasons The importance of acceptance when facing unexpected challenges How community helps accelerate growth and confidence Why joy is a strategy, not just an emotion The role of habits, discipline, and non-negotiables in long-term success How to move forward when life feels uncertain or overwhelming QUOTES “You can't be grateful and miserable at the same time.” “Resilience isn't about bouncing back.

POTS is suddenly everywhere right now, and a lot of women are hearing about it in a way that feels confusing, scary, and overwhelming. In this episode, I break down what POTS actually is, why I see it so often alongside chronic migraines, and why I don't see it as some random mystery your body has thrown at you. I explain what may be happening underneath the dizziness, racing heart, and instability, and why the deeper conversation has to include adrenal function, mineral balance, nutrient absorption, stress, and the body's overall resilience. If you've been dealing with both migraines and POTS symptoms, this episode will help you make much more sense of what your body is trying to do.If this sounds like your story and you're tired of feeling like your body is a mystery, I'd love to help you look at the deeper root drivers behind your migraines and POTS symptoms.

Migraines are often dismissed as “just a bad headache,” but they can be much more serious and disruptive. So what actually causes migraines, and when should someone stop trying to push through the pain?In this episode of Baptist Health Talk, host Sandra Peebles speaks with Dr. Maria Vera Silva, neurologist at Baptist Health Miami Neuroscience Institute, and Dr. Andrew Forster, internal medicine physician at Baptist Health Primary Care, about what migraines are, how they affect the brain, and why treatment is not one size fits all.In this conversation, they discuss: Why migraines are considered a neurologic disease  How migraines differ from regular headaches  Common triggers, including stress, hormones, sleep changes, foods and weather  The connection between migraines and mental health  Treatment options, including anti inflammatories, triptans, CGRP inhibitors and Botox  What to know about viral migraine “hacks” on social media  When migraine symptoms should prompt a visit to a doctor Migraines can interfere with work, school, family life and everyday activities. Understanding the signs, triggers and treatment options can help patients get the right care sooner.For more health and wellness information, visit Baptist Health South Florida's resource blog: baptisthealth.net/newsHost:Sandra PeeblesAward-Winning JournalistGuest:Maria Andreina Vera Silva, M.D. NeurologistBaptist Health Miami Neuroscience InstituteAndrew Forster, M.D. Internal Medicine Physician Baptist Health Primary CareIf you found this episode helpful, you may also enjoy:A 'Heads Up' on Migraine & Headache Disorders

Have you ever been told that the thing you need to get better doesn't exist on the NHS but quietly, it does?This week I'm joined by Dr. Simon Erridge, medical doctor, UCL researcher, and one of the UK's leading voices in medical cannabis. Simon has a way of cutting through the stigma and the noise and what he shares isn't about getting high. It's about patients who've tried everything, suffered for years, and finally found relief.What we explore together:What medical cannabis actually is  and why it's nothing like what you probably picture when you hear the word cannabisWhy the UK is one of the highest opioid-prescribing countries in the world, and what that tells us about how we treat chronic painWhat's actually happening in the brain with PTSD and how medical cannabis can help decouple the trauma from the memory itselfThe shocking contamination rates in illicit cannabis, and why the black market route puts people at real riskWho shouldn't use medical cannabis, and the conditions where it's not appropriateThe full range of conditions being treated right now: from migraines, Crohn's disease and MS to anxiety, depression, OCD and cancer-related symptomsIf you or someone you love has been living with chronic pain, PTSD, endometriosis, or any condition that feels like it has no solution this one is for you.Love, Sarah Ann

What if your chronic pain, migraines, anxiety, fatigue, IBS, or other persistent symptoms aren't permanent at all? In this fascinating conversation, Dr. Mariza sits down with Dr. Howard Schubiner, physician, researcher, and leading expert in neuroplastic symptoms, to explore a groundbreaking approach that is helping people reverse chronic pain and other conditions long considered lifelong and irreversible. Dr. Schubiner explains how the brain creates pain as a protective danger signal, why emotional injuries can activate the same neural pathways as physical injuries, and how unresolved trauma, chronic stress, adverse childhood experiences, and self-silencing can contribute to chronic symptoms years or even decades later. Together, they discuss the growing body of research around neuroplastic pain, the connection between emotions and physical symptoms, and why many people continue suffering despite normal scans, medications, and conventional treatments. Dr. Mariza also shares her own experience with chronic migraines, leading to a powerful live demonstration of how pain reprocessing techniques can begin shifting the brain's expectations and neural patterns in real time. This conversation offers hope for anyone who has been told they simply need to manage their symptoms for the rest of their life. HOWARD SCHUBINER Dr. Howard Schubiner is a physician, researcher, educator, and one of the leading voices in the field of neuroplastic symptoms. He is the author of Unlearn Your Pain and has spent decades helping patients recover from chronic pain, migraines, fibromyalgia, IBS, anxiety, chronic fatigue, and other conditions through evidence-based approaches rooted in neuroscience, emotional processing, and neuroplasticity. IN THIS EPISODE What neuroplastic symptoms are and why they are often misunderstood How childhood experiences, trauma, and chronic stress can contribute to chronic pain Why migraines, IBS, fibromyalgia, anxiety, and fatigue may share similar brain-based mechanisms The powerful connection between emotions and physical symptoms How pain reprocessing therapy helps retrain the brain's danger signals Why self-silencing and people-pleasing often show up in women with chronic symptoms The role of emotional awareness and expression in healing A live demonstration of changing neural pathways through visualization and safety signals QUOTES“Pain can be a message that our brain sends.” “Emotional injury causes the same parts of the brain to light up as physical injury.” “Chronic pain is not necessarily a life sentence.” RESOURCES MENTIONED Use code ENERGIZED and get 30% off on your first BATCH order http://hellobatch.com/ENERGIZED Get your copy of Dr. Howard Schubiner Newest Book now https://www.amazon.com/Unlearn-Your-Pain-Recovering-Depression/ Unlearn Your Pain Website The Association for the Treatment of Neuroplastic Symptoms (ATNS) Howard Schubiner Instagram Howard Schubiner Facebook RELATED EPISODES  751: Bloating, Brain Fog & Hormone Chaos?

I hear this all the time: “Dr. Leslie, just tell me what to do. Tell me what to take.” And I get it. When you're suffering, you don't want more explanations, you want relief. But in this episode, I explain why I don't just hand women a supplement list or a generic protocol, and why doing that can actually make things worse for a body that is already depleted, overwhelmed, and hypersensitive. I talk about why timing matters, why implementation matters more than information, and why real healing usually starts with one small, well-calibrated step instead of a 12-step plan you can't sustain.

In this episode, I break down a post from a woman in my Facebook group who had a deeply unsettling migraine experience while driving. She described feeling disoriented, disconnected, and unable to fully process what was happening around her, and if you've ever felt that way during a migraine, I want you to know there's a reason for it. I explain the two major things I believe are often at play here: underlying metabolic waste and toxin overload in the body, and a form of dissociation that can develop when someone has been living with pain for a very long time. This is an important conversation about safety, brain fog, helplessness, and what chronic migraines are really trying to tell you.

Anxiety and chronic illness are rarely talked about together and almost never in the way that actually matters.Because the anxiety most women with chronic illness carry is not about their life. It is about their own body. And that specific fear, being afraid of the one thing you can never get distance from, creates an emotional pattern that quietly changes your relationship with your body in ways that make healing significantly harder. In this mini, you'll discover:Why anxiety about your own body is fundamentally different from any other kind of fear — and why it never switches offHow that fear pulls you out of your body and turns you into someone who surveils it rather than someone who lives in itOne powerful question that reveals exactly where your relationship with your body stands right nowIf you want to understand which emotional patterns may be driving your specific symptoms, use my free ChatGPT prompt to find out in under 30 seconds.

She had taken a job that was way too much pressure, and wasn't practicing self-care. One day on vacation, the occasional migraine that used to be nothing to Heather came on like a storm. She experienced numbness and pain to the point where she worried she was having a stroke! This led to a chronic situation of which I am VERY familiar.

  Ian Jessop interviews William Angolia about his 1985 construction site accident, subsequent chronic migraines and blindness, and his recovery through cannabis use. A falling sprinkler pipe caused blunt force trauma, a detached retina, permanent blindness in the right eye, and daily debilitating migraines that left William bedridden and unable to work for three years. Prescribed pharmaceuticals, including morphine-level medications, provided insufficient relief and prevented William from holding a full-time job. In 1988, a fellow patient suggested cannabis for migraines; William researched it, found documented evidence that THC lowers eye pressure in head trauma patients, and began smoking a couple of joints daily. Within three and a half weeks of starting cannabis and stopping pharmaceuticals, William experienced his first full migraine-free day, followed by weeks, months, and then years without significant headaches. Rehabilitation also addressed the practical challenges of monocular vision — learning to turn left instead of right, choosing seating positions at events, and compensating for the right-side blind spot. William became a cannabis legalization activist, sharing his story across the Northeast and contributing to Washington D.C.'s Initiative 71 in 2010, which he helped see through to fruition. Arbitrary THC blood-level thresholds (e.g., 0.04 microns) used to define impairment are flawed — no scientific test exists to determine actual cannabis impairment, meaning regular users can be convicted of DUI without being impaired. A pre-travel abstinence period before visiting Malaysia highlighted that stopping cannabis caused migraines to return, reinforcing its ongoing therapeutic role. Doctors in Thailand confirmed they had no pharmaceutical equivalent that could match cannabis for William's pain relief, and none discouraged its continued use. Cannabis access in Thailand is becoming more restrictive despite its 6,000-year history as an herb, driven by government desire for control within the monarchy. William advocates strongly for the right to home-grow, offering free grow classes and teaching tincture, oil, and extraction methods to reduce dependence on heavily taxed dispensary products. Replenishing the endocannabinoid system with cannabinoids allows the body to heal itself naturally — William argues this is straightforward science that pharmaceuticals and poor lifestyle choices undermine. Beyond migraines, William credits cannabis and healthy living for avoiding major health issues, surviving heavy COVID-era exposure, and managing hip pain without any pharmaceutical pain medication at age 69. Gratitude centers on being alive, self-sufficient, and healthy — with strong family longevity (mother lived to 99) and a goal of another 20 years — while his father's early death at 59 from lung cancer reinforced his lifelong commitment to avoiding bodily pollutants.

In this episode of Fit, Fun, and Frazzled, Nikki Lanigan opens up about something she's kept private for two years — her battle with chronic migraines. In honor of June being Migraine and Headache Awareness Month, she shares the full picture: the triggers, the treatments, the nervous system connection, and the emotional weight that comes with an invisible illness. Nikki covers the metaphysical side (think Louise Hay and Nicole Sachs' journal speak method), what her neurologist has her on, the supplements that actually help, and what daily life really looks like when your brain feels like it's on fire. This one is raw, real, and for anyone who's ever been told to "just drink some water."

What if the discipline, the drive and the work ethic that made you successful at everything else in your life is the reason your chronic illness is not getting better?Most women with autoimmune disease and chronic illness have never considered that the emotional patterns driving their symptoms might include the way they are approaching healing itself.In this episode, you'll discover:Why the women doing the most work on themselves are often the ones whose bodies are responding the leastHow obsessive focusing on getting better actually keeps your body in a state that makes progress virtually impossibleOne shift that separates women who are performing healing from women who are actually healingIf you want to know what emotional patterns may be driving your specific symptoms, use my free ChatGPT prompt to find out in under 30 seconds.

I clicked on one migraine reel a few weeks ago, and now my Facebook feed will not let me forget it. Dr. Painkiller is back, this time telling women that the things you think are helping your migraines are actually making them worse. Sleeping in. Skipping meals. Not taking your meds fast enough. And of course… your “migraine brain” loves routine, not chaos. In this episode, I'm breaking down what he gets wrong and why this kind of advice keeps women stuck. You don't have a defective brain. You have a body that has lost its resilience, and the standard neurology playbook of “take the medication early, never miss a dose, stay on a perfect schedule” is exactly what turns episodic migraines into chronic ones. I share what's really going on when sleeping in or waking up too early triggers a migraine, why “rebound” isn't a personal failure, and what your body is actually asking for instead.

If you take medication for headaches or migraines, it's important to understand what it can help with—and what it was never designed to fix.In this episode of the Headache Doctor Podcast, Dr. Taves breaks down the role of medication in headache and migraine management, including how medications can reduce symptoms, why they don't address the root cause, and how to think about medication as one tool—not the whole solution.We cover:What medication can do for migraine symptomsWhat medication can't fix when it comes to root causesWhy symptom relief is different from healingHow medications affect pain signals, transmission, and perceptionWhy many people feel stuck in a cycle of symptom managementNatural ways to support your body through sleep, movement, sunlight, nutrition, and stress regulationIf you've ever wondered whether your medication is helping, masking the problem, or keeping you stuck in a cycle, this episode will help you think about migraine relief more clearly.

This conversation I have with Beatty Carmichael is one I've been thinking about since we recorded it. Beatty has spent decades learning to trust God at His word through financial near-disasters and real-world healings, and what he shares here is deeply biblical... and quietly life-changing.Beatty Carmichael is a businessman, author, and healing practitioner and the author of The Prayer of Freedom.Expect to explore what it actually means to take God at His word in financial crisis, how Beatty tripled his giving while broke and why the math still worked, what scripture says about the connection between unconfessed sin and physical sickness, the heavenly courtroom framework and why pleading the blood of Jesus isn't just metaphor, and how anxiety, chronic pain, and addiction can disappear through confession and repentance.Chapters00:00 Tripling His Giving While Broke: The Story That Started It All06:37 The $25 Test: What Happened When Beatty Gave 45% of His Income11:38 Naaman's Story and Why Faith Is Just Obedience19:14 "If You Believed I Would, How Would You Be Acting?"25:30 Learning to Hear God's Voice and Why Beatty Stopped Trusting Men to Interpret Scripture32:00 How Sin Creates a Legal Opening for the Enemy40:00 The Heavenly Courtroom Vision and Pleading the Blood of Jesus58:32 The Biblical Pattern: Sin, Sickness, and Confession01:06:12 Anxiety Gone in Four Minutes: A Real Story from the Prayer Line01:12:03 Catherine's Story: Heroin, Migraines, and Anxiety — All GoneIf something in this conversation stirred something in you, I hope you'll sit with it... and maybe even bring one part of it to God and ask Him what He wants you to do with it.

The donor egg recommendation rarely comes after a complete workup. It comes after AMH, FSH, and an antral follicle count. That is usually where the investigation stops. In this episode, Sarah Clark walks through what is missing from the workup before women are told donor eggs are their only path: the full thyroid panel, not just TSH. Stool DNA testing for H. pylori, parasites, and food sensitivities. The vaginal microbiome. The male partner's blood work, which most clinics do not run. The nervous system patterns most REIs do not connect to fertility. Sarah shares Rebecca's case as a proof point. Rebecca was 27. Her AMH was 0.04 ng/mL. POI diagnosis. Told donor eggs were her only option. Her stool DNA testing revealed H. pylori and a parasite. Her food sensitivity testing showed gluten, dairy, and egg intolerance. She had adrenal insufficiency, thyroid imbalance, mineral depletion, and toxic load on her workup. Her eczema, migraines, and asthma were not separate issues. After targeted work, she conceived naturally in month five. Outcomes vary. Rebecca's case is one of many we use to illustrate what completing the workup can look like. This episode is for the woman sitting with a donor egg recommendation who is not ready to agree before she understands what was actually evaluated. The goal is clarity. Not opposition to your clinic. Not a guarantee of any outcome. Clarity on what your workup did not include, so that whatever you decide next gets made on the full picture. What this episode covers: The diagnosis is real. The investigation is incomplete. Why TSH alone is not a thyroid panel. H. pylori, hidden food sensitivities, and the gut inflammation driver. Eczema, migraines, and asthma as fertility signals. The male partner's workup should include beyond a semen analysis. Nervous system patterns most REIs do not connect to fertility. Next steps: Access the free guide: What Your Clinic Missed. The guide walks through the markers that the Fab Fertile team reviews before a donor egg recommendation. Email hello@fabfertile.ca, subject line MISSED. Book a Functional Fertility Second Opinion. We'll review your labs, your history, your full picture, and your partner's picture together, so you know what your biology has been telling you and what your next decision should be informed by.

If you have Lyme disease and chronic migraines, you have probably been told to focus on the Lyme first. In this episode, Debbie explains why that approach keeps women stuck - and why addressing both at the same time is not just possible, it is the smarter path to healing.

Is it really what you eat… or how your body feels when you eat it that shapes your migraines?In this episode of Migraine Heroes Podcast, host Diane Ducarme uncovers a hidden trigger many overlook: the state of your nervous system when you eat. Because when stress takes over, your body doesn't just think differently, it digests, absorbs, and reacts differently too.You'll discover:

After a family dinner out, I woke up the next morning with a few unexpected symptoms, and instead of being a problem, they were actually my body doing exactly what it's designed to do. In this episode, I walk you through what was going on under the surface, why your body sometimes reacts to certain meals more strongly than others, and how this connects to the bigger picture of why migraines show up in the first place. If you've ever felt confused or frustrated about your body's reactions, this one will give you a much clearer way to understand them.

In this episode, I'm talking about something I'm not hearing many people in the migraine space discuss openly, Botox as a preventative treatment for chronic migraines. My goal isn't to scare you or tell you what to do. My goal is to make sure you have the full picture before you make a decision about what goes into your body. I explain what Botox actually is, how it works in your body, why the migraine protocol uses far higher doses than cosmetic Botox, and the long-term concerns I have around muscle atrophy, neck function, CGRP, and your body's overall toxic load. I also share why I believe neck pain is often a symptom of migraines rather than the cause, and what I recommend focusing on instead if you want real, long-term healing. If you haven't yet listened to my previous episode on trigger point injections, I highly recommend pairing these two together, they build on each other and give you a fuller understanding of what's really driving your chronic migraines.Check out the podcast episode about trigger point injections: Trigger Point Injections and Migraines.

Text Dr. Lenz any feedback or questions High-Masking Autism, Anxiety, and the Multi-System Pattern of Chronic Invisible IllnessDr. Michael Lenz reacts to Auticate's video on autistic health and connects it to fibromyalgia-like “multi-system” chronic invisible illness, describing 11 doctors in a year before an autism diagnosis and a pattern of persistent symptoms despite normal tests. The script reviews common co-occurring issues in autistic people: skin burning/itching and psoriasis, GI problems (GERD, bloating, diarrhea), chronic cough with inconclusive lung workups, urinary frequency/nocturia, insomnia and restless legs/periodic limb movement disorder, widespread muscle tension and pain consistent with fibromyalgia flares after meltdowns, migraines, immune/allergy conditions (including mast cell issues), possible POTS/dysautonomia, and frequent mental health misdiagnoses and medication side effects. It argues a major culprit is chronic anxiety/fight-or-flight from high masking, and explains why medical care is hard for autistic people (waiting, sensory overload, communication, dismissal). It offers self-advocacy tips (lists, disclosure, processing time, bring support) and calls for more integrated, autism-informed healthcare.00:00 Reacting 00:29 The Multisystem Pattern02:24 Skin Symptoms Explained03:41 Gut Issues and Reflux04:57 Chronic Cough Mystery06:25 Urinary Frequency and Pain07:42 Sleep Problems and RLS09:56 Muscle Pain and Flares11:11 Migraines and Sensory Overload12:53 Immune Issues and POTS14:18 Misdiagnoses and Masking15:32 The Culprit Anxiety Loop17:54 Why Doctor Visits Are Hard22:30 Self Advocacy Doctor Tips27:34 Wrap Up and Call to Share Click here for the YouTube channel Support the showWhen I started this podcast and YouTube Channel—and the book that came before it—I had my patients in mind.

As more people begin to take GLP-1s for weight loss, many have reported unexpected positive side effects, like relief for chronic migraines, help with arthritis, and even help with addiction. But doctors still aren't quite sure why this medication has so many unintended upsides, and what it could mean for future use. New York Times contributing writer Julia Belluz, discusses her piece "The Great Ozempic Experiment." Plus, listeners share how GLP-1s have changed their lives. Image by zimmytws via Getty Creative

Send us Fan MailAlex Marie Freed was a healthy mom of three when she suddenly began experiencing daily migraines, vomiting spells, panic attacks, dizziness, severe anxiety, food reactions, and debilitating fatigue.Doctors blamed pregnancy, stress, and anxiety. But what no one connected was that her symptoms began shortly after moving into a fixer-upper home with a history of flooding.In this episode of Never Been Sicker, Michael Rubino sits down with integrative health practitioner Alex Marie Freed to discuss her journey through mold illness, Lyme, MCAS, miscarriage, medical dismissal, and the long road back to health.Alex shares how her family was impacted, what finally helped her connect the dots, why remediation mistakes can make things worse, and how she now helps women and children dealing with complex chronic illness.This conversation is a powerful reminder that healing is possible, but the root cause has to be addressed.Timestamps00:00 Intro00:28 Symptoms begin01:21 Moving into the fixer-upper01:55 Mold wasn't on her radar03:08 Migraines, panic attacks & anxiety04:27 Connecting the dots05:29 The call that changed everything06:41 Turning pain into purpose06:54 Miscarriage, mold & infertility08:20 Fertility and toxic load10:45 Severe illness and survival mode12:16 Flooding and worsening symptoms12:57 Why the remediation failed14:20 Why kids are more vulnerable16:16 Why we've never been sicker17:18 The biggest lie in chronic illness18:33 Quick fixes vs root causes21:03 Shifting the healing mindset22:27 Being dismissed by doctors24:18 Mold, Lyme & MCAS connection26:08 Terrain-based healing explained27:39 Lyme disease controversies29:48 Life after healing32:40 The turning point in recovery36:00 Daily healing rituals38:06 Her healing program40:52 Message for those struggling42:05 Where to find Alex-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Follow Alex:

If you've been considering trigger point injections for your neck and shoulder pain,or you've already tried them and wondered why the relief didn't last, this episode is for you. A lot of women with chronic migraines assume the neck is where the problem starts. It makes sense. The tension is real, the pain is real, and it feels like if you could just release that tightness the migraines would stop. But what if the neck isn't actually where your migraines begin? In this episode I break down what trigger point injections actually do, when they can offer some relief, and why for most chronic migraine sufferers they hit a real ceiling. I also explain what's actually causing that persistent neck and shoulder tightness, and why addressing the root of it changes everything.

Migraines aren't just headaches and if you've ever had one, you know how debilitating they can be. But they're not random, and they're not just genetic. Migraines are a signal that something deeper is out of balance in your body and if you only treat the symptoms, you miss the real opportunity to prevent them. In this episode, I break down what's really driving migraines, including: • The root causes most people miss—from inflammation and blood sugar swings to hormones, gut health, and nutrient deficiencies • Why migraines are a full-body neurological event, not just a head issue, and what that means for treatment • How your cycle, stress levels, and nervous system can lower your threshold and make migraines more likely • A functional medicine approach to prevention—simple shifts in diet, lifestyle, and nutrients that can reduce frequency and severity Migraines don't come out of nowhere—they happen when your body hits a threshold. When you lower the load and support your biology, you don't just manage migraines—you can actually start to prevent them.

If you have spent years cutting out gluten, dairy, caffeine, or chocolate and still can not get your migraines under control, this episode is going to change how you think about food and migraines for good. Debbie Waidl, Migraine Freedom Expert and Functional Health Coach, breaks down why elimination diets work temporarily for so many women and then stop working, what is actually happening inside your cells that keeps the migraine cycle going, and what the research reveals about the real driver behind a dropping migraine threshold. You will learn why your mitochondria are at the center of the migraine story, how nutrient gaps, oxidative stress, and disrupted sleep fuel brain hypersensitivity, and why the Freedom From Migraines Method® takes a completely different approach to nutrition than anything you have tried before. Your body is not overreacting to food. It is running out of what it needs to function. This episode explains exactly what that looks like. In This Episode: Why elimination diets give temporary relief but rarely produce lasting results What your mitochondria have to do with migraines and why this connection changes everything The three main drivers of mitochondrial dysfunction Debbie sees in her clients Why your blood work can look perfectly normal while your cells are starving for key nutrients How magnesium, B vitamins, CoQ10, and electrolytes support your brain's energy production What oxidative stress is and how it creates a cycle that makes your migraine threshold drop over time How estrogen loss in perimenopause and menopause directly affects mitochondrial function Resources: FREE DOWNLOAD: Toxic Migraine Triggers Guide Get the complete guide showing you the hidden inflammatory triggers fueling your migraines, including toxins in your medication, environment, and everyday life. https://dwvirtualguide.com/free-guide Book a Free Migraine Breakthrough® Assessment Let's assess your unique migraine situation and uncover what has been keeping you stuck. https://pages.debbiewaidlcoach.com/breakthroughcall Connect with Debbie: Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/debbiewaidl.coach/ Women's Migraine Freedom™ Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/womensmigrainefreedom Website: https://pages.debbiewaidlcoach.com/ Email: freedom@debbiewaidl.com Disclaimer: The Migraine Freedom™ Your Way Podcast and information provided by Debbie Waidl and guests is presented solely to provide helpful information, education, and entertainment on the subjects discussed.

In this episode of the Flex Diet Podcast, I sit down with creatine researcher Dr. Darren Candow from the University of Regina to break down what the research actually says about creatine for muscle, performance, and body composition—plus the newer interest in brain health, aging, and longevity. We dig into practical dosing (including higher-dose ideas for bone and brain), why timing probably doesn't matter much, and what the data shows on safety, side effects, and common myths like hair loss. We also talk about creatine in special contexts like sleep deprivation, jet lag, concussion/TBI potential, and vegan or low-creatine diets, along with how caffeine might (or might not) interfere. If you want an evidence-based, real-world guide to creatine, this one's for you.

After 13 years of chronic migraines that sent her to the ER monthly, Edna Ness stumbled upon a therapy so powerful it eliminated her pain permanently in just one month. But that was only the beginning of her incredible journey. When doctors told her husband he had less than a week to live with stage four cancer, she pulled from years of alternative healing experience to guide his recovery using the same revolutionary treatments. What started as personal desperation became a mission to help others access therapies that most people have never heard of.Edna reveals the shocking truth about why hyperbaric oxygen therapy isn't standard care after cancer treatment, despite being FDA-approved for radiation damage.
