Summary

This week on The Anxiety Chicks, we’re diving deeper into the connection between anxiety and Hashimoto’s with special guest. After opening the conversation in a previous episode, we wanted to bring on an expert to help break down what Hashimoto’s actually is, how it can impact both physical and mental health, and why symptoms like anxiety, panic, depression, fatigue, brain fog, and feeling “off” shouldn’t always be dismissed as just anxiety. One thing we strongly believe in is getting properly medically evaluated and advocating for your health instead of automatically assuming every symptom is anxiety-related. Hashimoto’s is an autoimmune thyroid condition that can sometimes show up in ways many people don’t expect — including mental health symptoms. In this episode, Carrie shares her own experience, discusses the root causes and common symptoms of Hashimoto’s, and explains the role nutrition, stress, hormones, and lifestyle can play in healing and supporting the body. Carrie Vitt is a Functional Nutritional Therapist at, founder of the wellness site Deliciously Organic, creator of online thyroid and adrenal health courses, and author of the cookbooks Deliciously Organic and The Grain-Free Family Table.
