In this powerful and profoundly personal episode of Selective Hearing, host Julie Dammar sits down with health coach Cris Toto to discuss his journey with Hashimoto’s thyroiditis. This journey took him from the depths of depression and suicidal thoughts to a place of healing, purpose, and empowerment. Diagnosed after years of unexplained exhaustion, brain fog, and weight gain, Cris shares the pivotal moment that led him to take control of his health and reverse his symptoms through lifestyle changes.
Now in remission, Cris dedicates his life to helping other women struggling with Hashimoto’s regain their energy, clarity, and sense of self. He opens up about the signs and symptoms many people miss, how to advocate for proper diagnosis, and the mindset shifts that changed everything for him.
Cris also shares how his wife’s story inspired him, why he believes Hashimoto’s aaved his life, and the mantra that guides his work: “Lifestyle choices got me into this mess—lifestyle changes can get me out of this mess.”
“Selective Hearing,” for Cris, means tuning out the crap and staying on a positive beat—believing that everything is working out and the universe has your back.
