847. How to Thrive Beyond Your Autoimmune Disease w/ Dr. Amy Myers

Happy Throwback Thursday Heal Squad! As we continue to learn all about the gut we are bringing back our conversation with Dr. Amy Myers. What makes Dr. Myers story so incredible is the fact she has experienced a lot of the health issues that she now helps her patients heal from. In our conversation she shares her personal journey with autoimmune disease and sheds light on the challenges faced by women when searching for accurate diagnoses. Having experienced dismissal and misdiagnosis herself, Dr. Myers is on a mission to prevent others from suffering the same fate at the hands of conventional medicine. Dr. Myers emphasizes the importance of individuality and listening to your body's unique needs, while navigating the pitfalls of relying solely on diagnoses rather than focusing on true healing. When life throws you news that may seem like the end of the world, Dr. Amy Myers reminds us that although conventional medicine failed her, she has made it her mission to make sure that it won't fail you.
