Episode Summary 

In this episode, Kathryn Regganie sits down with Melissa Armstrong, a holistic health expert and former nurse, to discuss the "system domino effect" in conventional medicine—where one prescription leads to another, creating a cycle of dependency. Melissa shares her personal journey of being on multiple medications and how she broke free by taking a holistic approach to her health.

They dive into the importance of understanding the root causes of health issues, from inflammation and nutrition to hydration. Melissa shares a surprising story about a client who never drank water and didn’t realize she needed to! This eye-opening conversation challenges common misconceptions about wellness, nutrition, and who we trust for health advice.


Key Topics Discussed:

The Domino Effect and how medications can lead to more health issues.

  • Why addressing root cause like diet, hydration, and lifestyle can transform your wellbeing.
  • The shocking reality that some people don't know water is essential for health
  • Why taking nutritional advice from the government might not be the best idea
  • Simple steps to start reclaiming your health holistically.

Speaker Bio:

Melissa Armstrong has faced a lifetime of trauma and abuse, struggling with mental health issues from a young age. At 18, she experienced the devastating accident and subsequent death of her brother, adding to her existing struggles with anxiety, PTSD, and depression.

Despite her hardships, Melissa has shown incredible resilience and strength in overcoming her challenges and now owns her own business as a Trauma-informed Functional Health Coach, helping other women overcome trauma to heal their mind, body, and spirit!
