Amy Kurtz is the author of the trailblazing book Kicking Sick: Your GO TO GUIDE for Thriving with Chronic Health Conditions, a health and wellness coach, patient advocate, and speaker. Facing debilitating pain and health issues since her teenage years, patient advocate and author Amy Kurtz well knows the frustration, fear and isolation that comes with chronic illness. Life long Chronic Health Conditions – from Celiac Disease to major parasite infections to a thyroid condition– led Amy on an intense journey through doctors' offices, medical clinics, IV labs, specialist offices and assorted spiritual communities. Through these experiences – the trials and the errors, Amy learned the importance of identifying her individual needs and putting a team together to support the whole of her body/mind/spirit. She became an active participant in her own health and got more involved, educated and invested in the healing process. She supports her clients in finding the right system so they can focus on healing instead of being mired in managing their care. Prior to starting her private practice, Amy built the health coaching program at The Morrison Center, a top integrative practice in NYC as a means of better supporting the patient by providing individualized guidance regarding their health condition and treatment plan. Key Topics: - Amy's story about healing from chronic disease - How to advocate for yourself when you know something isn't right - How to give yourself permission to empower yourself - The importance of making the mind-body connection - The process of moving from victim to empowered advocate - How to go slowly and trust your gut instinct - How to calm the inner critic and stay in the driver's seat You can learn more about Amy and get her book at amykurtz.com and on Instagram at @amykurtz.

Welcome to a deeply inspiring episode of the Tick Boot Camp Podcast, where we sit down with Alexandra Brook-Clark, a resilient Lyme disease warrior, who has transformed her battle with Lyme into a mission of helping others. Residing in Marblehead, Massachusetts, Alexandra shares her incredible journey from blissful days in Brooklyn, New York, to facing the stark realities of Lyme disease and co-infections. Now, at 39, Alexandra's story is not just about struggle; it's about overcoming, learning, and thriving. Emma Pikoulas joins Matt Sabatello as a special guest co-host for this powerful interview. Alexandra's Background: Name: Alexandra Brook-Clark Age: 39 Location: Marblehead, Massachusetts Professional Background: Transitioned from a decade in the fashion industry to working in Workers Compensation Risk Management for her family's company. Alexandra has also embraced a role as a Lyme disease advocate, organically offering guidance and support to others affected by Lyme and tick-borne diseases. Pre-Lyme Life: Alexandra reminisces about her life before Lyme—full of social engagements, work success, and joy with her husband Patrick, son August, and their dog Zeus in Brooklyn, NY. Her life, seemingly perfect, was abruptly interrupted by Lyme disease. Lyme Disease Onset: At 36, Alexandra's world turned upside down. Post hip surgery and at the cusp of the COVID-19 pandemic, she began experiencing unexplainable and debilitating symptoms. Despite numerous misdiagnoses and a journey through the complexities of the healthcare system, her relentless pursuit for answers led her to self-order an IGENIX test, which confirmed Lyme alongside multiple co-infections. Diagnosis and Treatment: Age at Diagnosis: 37 Diagnostic Path: Negative results on the Western blot, a positive breakthrough with IGENIX. Treatment Journey: Began with antibiotics and herbs under Dr. Casey Kelley's care, transitioning to a holistic and herbal approach with Dr. Linda Tao at the Morrison Center in New York, augmented by innovative therapies such as ozone IV, glutathione, and more. Life Post-Diagnosis: Alexandra shares the profound changes Lyme disease brought to her life, from PTSD and fears of the outdoors to a newfound appreciation for life's simplicity and the importance of treating her body with kindness. Despite the ongoing challenges, including a battle with mold intolerance, Alexandra stands at 95% of her pre-Lyme self, actively working and enjoying a revitalized social life. Healing Strategies: Emphasizing the importance of the brain-body connection, Alexandra credits her recovery to retraining her brain, alongside an arsenal of therapies including cold plunging, sauna sessions, and rigorous detoxification routines. Advice to Others: For those battling Lyme, Alexandra offers hope and assurance of healing. Her preventive advice underscores the importance of vigilance against ticks, advocating for proactive measures like regular tick checks and the use of protective sprays. Armur Health: Alexandra runs Armur, providing access to community support, expert advice, and a wealth of information to empower individuals on their journey to recovery from Lyme and other chronic infections. Conclusion: Alexandra Brook-Clark's journey is a testament to the power of resilience, the importance of self-advocacy in health, and the transformative impact of a supportive community. Her story not only sheds light on the complexities of Lyme disease but also inspires hope and action in the face of adversity. Closing Remarks: Thank you for tuning in to this compelling episode of the Tick Boot Camp Podcast with Alexandra Brook-Clark. Her courage, insights, and advice offer invaluable lessons on navigating Lyme disease with hope and determination. Join us next time as we continue to share stories of triumph and transformation in the battle against tick-borne illnesses.

We’re back with our friend Dr. Jeffrey Morrison, the award-winning functional medicine MD who champions a nutritional approach to healthcare. We recorded this ep at his eponymous Morrison Center, where they offer a range of treatments and services based on integrative medicine, i.e. treating the whole person to assist innate healing and promote optimal health instead of just fixing a problem. We’re here today to talk about peptides, that buzzy word that gets thrown around without any true meaning or understanding. Dr. Morrison legit believes peptide therapy is the future of medicine, so we really need to understand what they are! Typical medicines interfere with body processes in order to achieve some result. But peptides work differently because they enhance the way the body is already working. In fact, our bodies already produce peptides, and they signal the body to do something specific. This may sound like hyperbole, but Dr. Morrison explains why the hype around peptides is completely justified. Dr. Morrison talks about... What the F are peptides Peptides for cancer treatment They can’t override bad habits, but they can enhance the good stuff you’re already doing Topical vs subcutaneous peptides How we preserve our natural body supply Resources: morrisonhealth.com International Peptide Society Highway To Well is a production of Crate Media
