Hey guys, it's Kayla. I am so grateful that you are able to join us today because we are

all still so directionally challenged. We thought we'd have it all figured out by the

time we were in our 30s, but surprise, we don't, and that's okay. It really is okay. And

today we're going to talk about trusting your gut. You have heard it a million times before,

but this episode is fascinating because we've realized to understand what ails most of society,

we have to understand our gut health. And there is no one better to talk to you about this.

Then Dr. Will Cole, he is a leading functional medicine expert who specializes in clinically

investigating underlying factors of chronic disease and customizing a functional medicinal

approach for thyroid issues, autoimmune conditions, hormonal imbalances, digestive

disorders, and more. He is the New York Times bestselling author of Intuitive Fasting and now has

a new book out called Gut Feelings, healing the shame-fueled relationship between what you eat

and how you feel. So without further ado, we're going to jump right in. Here's my conversation

with Dr. Will Cole. Hey guys, I am here with Dr. Will Cole. I am so excited that you're here today.

I want to jump right in. There's so much to talk about. We're going to talk about the gut

because the truth is the gut does not get enough attention. You know, we talk all the time,

you and I both have podcasts, right? We talk all the time and we talk a lot about our hearts and

following our heart and what's our heart saying. And we talk a lot about our heads, you know,

the controlling our thoughts and our brain power. But the gut is left out a lot and you're changing

the game on that. So why has the gut been ignored for so long and why is it an important part of

the conversation? You know, it's the origins of so much of it, right? It's somehow our ancestors

knew it and we say it in our in in these cliches, but there's truth to it when we say things like

gut instinct that I just feel it in my gut and I've gut feelings and I butterflies in my stomach.
