Episode 116 - Mastering baseline for CFS with Dr. Olivia Lesslar

Why your Baseline is key to recovery Ever feel like recovery is one step forward, two steps back? You try to rest, eat well, follow advice, but it’s like your body just isn’t on the same page. I’ve been there, wondering if I’m doing something wrong or if this is just how it’s going to be. Here’s what changed everything for me: understanding my Baseline. This week, I had an incredible conversation with Dr. Olivia Lesslar, diving deep into why Baseline is the secret ingredient to real progress. She shared how your body’s stress signals, healing mechanisms, and even your daily routines play a massive role in building the foundation for recovery. We also talk about why pushing harder or “doing more” often backfires, and how working with your body—not against it—can open the door to progress. Hope this helps you move forward.   Here are 4 ways we can help. 1.

Episode 115 - 3 Essentials for ME/CFS Recovery That Nobody Talks About

3 Essentials for ME/CFS Recovery that nobody talks about Ever feel like you're doing everything right but still not moving forward?  I get it. Recovery isn't straightforward, and it's easy to feel stuck or question if you're missing some crucial piece. That was me years ago—I tried everything but kept circling back to square one, wondering if I'd ever get out of that loop.  But there's something I learned along the way that changed everything: there are three key essentials you need to get unstuck and start seeing real progress.  These essentials aren't about doing more or pushing harder. In fact, they're often things we overlook because they seem simple or even a little unconventional.  But without them, it's tough to build the foundation that recovery truly needs.  In my latest video, I'm breaking down what these three shifts are, why they're essential, and how they can help you feel more stable, focused, and ready to take the next step in your recovery.  Sometimes, it's not about adding more to your plate—it's about choosing the things that genuinely make a difference, one step at a time.  Hope this brings you closer to where you want to be.   Here are 4 ways we can help. 1.

Episode 114 - The Importance of Baseline for M.E/CFS Recovery

The missing piece in your CFS recovery Waking up every day without a plan can make life with chronic fatigue syndrome feel even harder.  You might find yourself resting all day, hoping to feel better, but end up feeling even worse—frustrated, anxious, and isolated.  I know how easy it is to fall into that cycle. But what if there was a way to break it?  Having a simple routine that matches your energy and current capacity can be a game-changer. It’s not about doing more—it’s about creating a rhythm that helps you stabilize, feel a bit more in control, and build towards progress, little by little.  In my latest video, I share why routines matter, how to find your baseline, and practical ways to start building a structure that supports your recovery journey.  Remember, small steps taken consistently can make all the difference.     Here are 4 ways we can help. 1.

Struggling with Chronic Fatigue? Discover the Healing Power of Food Imagine waking up already feeling drained—and it’s not even noon yet. Tough, right? You want to make progress, but when your body runs on empty, even the simplest tasks feel impossible. In our latest video, I talk about the healing power of food—not with strict diets or complicated rules, but as a practical way to fuel your body and support recovery from chronic fatigue syndrome, fibromyalgia, or long COVID. It’s all about listening to what your body needs, when it needs it—so you feel steady, nourished, and in control. Here’s what we cover: How your brain slips into “starvation mode” without regular meals—and why it leaves you feeling worse. How frequent meals keep your energy steady throughout the day, helping you avoid those frustrating crashes. Why following the “perfect diet” can add stress—and what to focus on instead for real progress. This is about working with your body, not against it—so you can stop running on empty and finally start feeling better.
