Episode 52 - Jess Wilson
I’m honored to chat with Jess Wilson—a functional nutritionist, speaker, and a powerful voice for healing through holistic health. Jess courageously shares her deeply personal journey of being repeatedly dismissed by the medical system while watching her two sons suffer from chronic illness.
Her story is one of resilience, fierce love, and unwavering faith in her own intuition. Through years of struggle, Jess discovered how food became not just nourishment, but a lifeline—a way to heal her family’s body and soul when nothing else seemed to work.
Together, we gently explore:
The profound connection between trauma, stress, and gut health
How food can become a compassionate daily act of self-care and empowerment
Simple, realistic nutrition guidance tailored for first responders and shift workers facing unique challenges
Honest truths about protein, fiber, hormones, and navigating the complexities of perimenopause
What it truly means to take radical responsibility for your own healing, even when the path feels overwhelming
If you’re on your own healing journey, caring for someone who is, or longing to reconnect with your body and inner wisdom, this conversation is filled with heartfelt insights, gentle encouragement, and real hope
