If you’ve been feeling bloated, tired, or stuck no matter what you eat, this episode is your reminder that the gut is the gateway to healing.

Tanya breaks down why gut health impacts everything — metabolism, hormones, energy, and even mood — and how chronic stress, poor sleep, or years of “go-mode” living can quietly disrupt digestion and absorption.

You’ll also learn how functional lab testing can reveal what’s really happening beneath the surface, and why supplementation should never be one-size-fits-all. When you support the gut strategically and intentionally, you create the foundation for every other wellness goal — from hormone balance to weight management to vitality in midlife.

• Why gut health is the foundation for metabolism, hormones, and energy
• The surprising connection between stress, the nervous system, and digestion
• Common midlife gut issues like low stomach acid, dysbiosis, and leaky gut
• Why functional lab testing is a game-changer for finding hidden root causes
• How to approach supplementation intentionally instead of guessing
• Simple daily habits that strengthen digestion naturally

I hope this episode blesses you!

Xoxo,

Tanya
