The Lyme Boss on What It Really Takes to Heal Lyme Disease

<p><strong>We’re kicking off the year with a powerful and inspiring interview. When Heather struggled with life-threatening mental health challenges at 15, absolutely no one suspected Lyme disease - despite her being bitten by a tick two years earlier.</strong></p> <p>That was accompanied by bodywide pain, overwhelming fatigue, brain fog and memory loss, and gut dysfunction.</p> <p>It would take more than 20 years of struggle, including multiple suicide attempts, before Heather finally received a diagnosis of Lyme disease.</p> <p>She went on to try multiple Lyme-targeted treatments, but those ultimately were not what allowed her heal.</p> <p>In this episode, Heather shares her personal story of overcoming Lyme disease and rebuilding her health after going undiagnosed for 20+ years.</p> <p> </p> <p>We cover some of the lesser-known but vital angles of Lyme, including…</p> <ul> <li>The most accurate Lyme disease testing</li> <li>How finding undiagnosed celiac disease, Hashimoto's, and endometriosis helped heal Lyme</li> <li>The lifestyle elements that are critical to healing</li> <li>Why what you eat matters</li> <li>The mindset required to move forward</li> <li>How Heather retrained her nervous system after years of illness</li> </ul> <p>Heather's journey inspired a career change. Today she's a Functional Diagnostic Nutritionist (FDN) Practitioner. After 27 years of undiagnosed Lyme disease, celiac disease, Hashimoto's, and endometriosis, she set out on a path to healing. She has now lost over 100lbs, her pain has lessened, she no longer has suicidal thoughts, and enjoys all-day energy. As The Lyme Boss, she now has a practice where she teaches others how to take care of themselves, get the inflammation off their body and brain, and gain control over their health journey.
