Keep It Clear

Savannah's been dealing with acne since middle school. She's tried Proactiv, prescription topicals, birth control, esthetician peels, and literally everything the internet told her to try. So when she says this journey changed her life... she means it. In this episode, Savannah joins Katie and Cris to get real about what six months of inside-out skin work actually looked like, and spoiler: the biggest shifts had nothing to do with skincare.

In this episode:

Why doing "all the things" (we're talking whole food plant-based, clean supplements, monthly peels) still wasn't cutting it, and what was actually going on beneath the surface.

The wild connection between unprocessed trauma, a calcium shell on your HTMA, and why your skin won't budge, no matter how clean you're eating.

How three back-to-back cycles with zero breast tenderness and manageable periods showed up after years of debilitating PMDD, without the pill or an SSRI.

The real reason Savannah kept putting it off, and the mindset shift that finally made her say "okay, let's do this" (hint: it wasn't just about the money).

What "cocooning" actually looks like in real life, and why the emotional work might just be the most important part of your whole skin journey.

If you've ever felt like you're doing everything "right" but still can't lose weight, clear your skin, or feel like yourself again - this episode is for you. Katie and Cris sit down with Elizabeth Aylor, a certified strength and conditioning specialist and functional diagnostic nutrition practitioner, to dig into what's actually going on beneath the surface. Spoiler: it's probably not a calorie problem.
What Katie & Cris break down in today's episode:
Why extreme elimination diets like carnivore don't fix the root cause - they just remove the symptom temporarily.
How mold toxicity could be the hidden reason you're not losing weight, sleeping well, or feeling like yourself.
The thyroid testing gap most doctors miss - and why your labs might look "normal" when they're really not.
Why eating more food (not less) helped over 2,000 of Elizabeth's clients lose 5 to 40 pounds in 90 days.
The mindset shift that changed everything for Elizabeth - and why believing you can't get better might be keeping you stuck.
