In this powerful episode of Holistic Health with Melissa, I sit down with Laurie Hammer, FNTP, NNTS, the creator of the Calm Mom Method. Laurie shares her deeply personal journey from a 12-year battle with an eating disorder, anxiety, and depression to finding freedom through amino acid therapy, functional nutrition, and God’s radical healing.

We talk about:

• Why traditional treatment models often fail women struggling with anxiety and eating disorders

• How balancing the brain with amino acid therapy can break cycles of cravings, depression, and emotional dysregulation

• The role of faith and truth in dismantling cultural lies about womanhood and motherhood

• Why many women still feel anxious and burned out despite being on medications

• How Laurie helps moms restore calm, energy, and purpose with her unique approach

This episode is a hope-filled conversation about healing the brain, body, and spirit—and reclaiming the life God created you to live.

If you are interested in learning about your nervous system, how to regulate it, release the stored emotions and stories that are running your life from the trauma you experienced, and integrate the trauma so you can move forward and live a life of overFLOW instead of overwhelm, ditch the anxiety, and show up for your kids and family in the way you always dreamed about, then my free 3-day Mind-Body Healing Workshop is for you.
