We’re talking gut health in this episode, with Madeline Lauf, founder of Begin Health. Madeline shares how poor nutrition habits from her own childhood inspired her mission to help families build strong foundations for lifelong wellness, starting in the gut. We dig into the links between processed foods, digestive issues, immune function, and even mood and developmental differences in kids. If you’ve ever wondered how C-sections, formula, antibiotics, and sugar impact your child’s behavior and health, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.
