Ever since Dr. Becky & I did this interview (almost a month ago!), I’ve been DYING to share it with you. Like it felt like I literally could not wait. But the day is finally here! Here it is!

Whew! I finally did it! I can’t tell you how long I’ve been putting this off. Analyzing the cost of a functional doctor vs. a naturopath vs. doing GAPS perfectly + a GAPS practitioner is just NOT my idea of a good time!
Hey Hey! So Today I am posting a video blog instead of my usual written version. Hope you enjoy!
Within the past month my partner and I split up. We had been together for 7 years and engaged for over 1. During this time, fleas infested my cats and those little buggers invaded our airbnb. Meanwhile, I was & still am displaced from fleeing a toxic living situation + the infamous wildfires in Oregon that happened shortly thereafter [thousands of people lost their homes in my area]. So I don’t know how you’ve been doing lately, but I haven’t been doing so well.

So I have to preface this article by saying it contains the best kept secret known to humans. And this is because when you understand how your Blood Sugar literally controls your life, you’ll understand that there is nothing wrong with you as a person. All your ‘bad’ decisions, all the crappy food you’ve eaten [when trying not to], all the awful sh** you’ve said in the heat of the moment that you didn’t mean, it can all be explained by your blood sugar levels.
Well, just to address the elephant in the room, between the stress of covid, systems of white supremacy + oppression, and an impending revolution, everything is different now. And the uncertainty of it all may make you feel like the walls are closing in. Trapped. Or feeling powerless *slash* hopeless, which is essentially what stress is.
The process of healing yourself is hard enough as it is without having to worry about the financial aspects of how you are going to make that happen.
GAPS & Wealth
You can’t really talk about GAPS without talking about privilege.As it is one of the most expensive + obscure diets around.It seems like GAPS was created for those specifically with socioeconomic & educational privilege.And really, that’s definitely part of the truth. The intrinsic need that gave birth to this protocol was the increasing amount of autistic children born on this planet. Parents spending hundreds of thousands of dollars trying to find a solution to no avail.As a result, Dr. Natasha created the GAPS diet.
The purpose of this interview is to show what is possible on my 3 month GAPS immersion program when you give it an honest effort! Even if you ‘fall off the wagon’ from time-to-time. 😉

That moment of doubt when your symptoms don’t go away or start to get worse even though you may have been on GAPS for months at this point. When you really start to wonder, “Is this even working?”
The last few weeks I’ve written about what to do if you’re stuck on GAPS. Detox support being the first priority, and then following up with more pinpointed strategies to up level your GAPS game.
But what if I told you it wasn’t just about the physical stuff? What if healing yourself is not just about food, or detox, or meat stock? Well it’s not.
