2w ago02:03:40Tap to summarizeIn this episode, Leigh Ann welcomes Diana Salcido to share her deeply personal story of being diagnosed with stage 3C colon cancer after nearly a year of symptoms, medical dismissal, panic, abdominal pain, and an inner knowing that something was wrong.

She also shares the complications that followed, including a leak, a second emergency surgery, an ileostomy, severe weight loss, pleural effusion, abscesses, additional surgery, and the loneliness of healing from injuries and trauma that others could not always see.

The conversation explores the physical, emotional, and spiritual layers of healing, including trauma work, faith, rest, sunlight, diet changes, supplements, acupuncture, frequency therapies, and learning when to pivot based on what the body is communicating.Product Discount Codes + LinksHoolest: Website (Discount Code: THEACCRESCENT10)Froya Hair Care: Website (Link gives 10% off)Herbal Face Food: Website (Discount Code: LAL30)The Fullest: Website (discount code: LEIGH15)Episode LinksDiana’s GoFundMeRelated EpisodesEp. 228: Dr. Lori Bouchard - The Missing Pieces in Cancer Care, Metabolism, Trauma, and Whole-Person HealingEp. 176: Leigh Ann Lindsey - How I Work with Cancer Patients to Address Emotional Root Causes to DiseaseWork w/Leigh AnnLearn: What is EVOX Therapy?Book: Schedule a Session or FREE Discovery CallMembership: What is The Healing Alchemy MembershipConnect w/Me & Learn MoreWebsiteInstagramTiktokYoutube

3w ago01:13:08Tap to summarizeLeigh Ann welcomes Cheryl Sew Hoy, founder of Tiny Health, for a conversation on infant gut health, microbiome testing, and why the first 1,000 days of life matter so deeply for long-term immune development.

Leigh Ann and Cheryl also discuss adult gut testing, the gut-brain connection, probiotics, stool testing technology, and why a “good” supplement is not necessarily helpful if your body does not need it.
