#251. From Panic Attacks to Peace…How She Healed Her Hormones, Gut & Faith

Burnout, Hormones & Faith: A Nurse’s Journey from Survival to Purpose
In this emotional and faith-filled episode, Dr. Tabatha sits down with Amanda, a former ER nurse whose life was unraveling behind the scenes. Years of high-stress shifts, people-pleasing, and unresolved childhood wounds led Amanda into full-blown burnout, adrenal fatigue, and early menopause—at just 43 years old.

Amanda opens up about the night sweats, exhaustion, and panic attacks that conventional medicine couldn't fix. Dr. Tabatha walks us through how functional medicine, gut healing, and hormone balance restored Amanda’s body, while faith in Jesus restored her heart. If you’ve ever felt like you're holding it all together while falling apart inside, this story will move you.
