E74- From Suffering to Strength: My Story and My Mission
In this deeply personal episode, host Kristie Lengel—Board Certified Integrative & Functional Nutrition Practitioner and founder of the Balance App—shares her full chronic illness story for the first time.
What began as a mysterious rash on Christmas Day in 2016 spiraled into years of debilitating symptoms, medical gaslighting, and unanswered questions. From MCAS, POTS, mold illness, and Lyme to navigating daily food reactions and nervous system chaos, Kristie walks you through the health unraveling that changed everything.
