About this episode

In this episode, Avery sits down with Katie Ruffino, Physician Associate, functional medicine practitioner, and Master NLP Practitioner, to explore why so many people do everything "right" and still can't heal. Katie breaks down what Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP) actually is, how subconscious beliefs formed in childhood can manifest as physical symptoms, and why the mind-body connection goes so much deeper than "just reduce your stress." If you've tried all the protocols and still feel stuck, this episode might be the missing piece you've been looking for!
