In this episode we interview Anya Kaats about how many of her health complaints were rooted in trauma and her emotional state.

Anya is a writer, photographer and astrologer who lives in Topanga, CA. Professionally she spent much of the last 10 years working in creative marketing for natural products brands. A former health & wellness blogger, health coach and someone who suffered from lifelong health issues, Anya finally found healing after confronting and diving into the emotional root of her body's physical symptoms. With her new Podcast, "A Millennial's Guide to Saving the World," Anya hopes to inspire others to do both the internal and external healing that's so needed at this time.

In this episode, Anya Kaats shares her experience of being on an herbal protocol guided by functional medicine that during one period of her life restored her health and later while on the same protocol she couldn't get out of bed. This led her to understand the power of her emotions as she discovered that was essentially the only difference. Through this realization she dove into astrology, therapy, music and many other alternative paths to restore health.

She shares her story of loss, grief, codependency authenticity in this powerful episode.

In today's interview we talk to Dr.Jessica Peatross about how mold and candida related to each other. Dr. Jess is a western trained medical doctor who began her journey into healing in 2009 when she graduated from the University of Louisville internal medicine residency program. She is passionate about teaching people how to be their own best doctor by educating themselves and listening to their body. Today Dr Jess practices as a Gerson therapy practitioner, is well versed in cannabis therapy, herbs, and nutritional IVs. As hospitals, insurance companies, and allopathic medicine hold firmly onto outdated belief patterns, patients and clients continue to ask for more from their healthcare providers. Dr Jess believes that personalized, preventative and functional treatment plans are the next step to revolutionize healthcare. Disease is much easier to prevent than to cure. Dr Jess would love to help heal you on every level through inspiration, knowledge, movement, nutrition, and a multidisciplinary approach.

Topics that we cover:

1. If you are no longer in a home can you still be affected?
2. Symptoms & Other impacts of mold
