This is something I’ve wanted to talk about for a long time — but I could never quite put it into words. Then, after hearing the same frustrations come up again and again in my discovery calls lately, I realized it was time.

We’re getting into why most functional medicine doesn’t actually stick — and what we do differently here at Motherland to make sure we’re the last practitioners you ever have to work with.

Here’s the deal: most of the women who come to us have already worked with other functional providers. They’ll feel good for a few weeks, maybe a month, and then the symptoms creep back in. And that’s so frustrating — especially when you’ve paid a small fortune trying to feel better. But it’s not your fault. It’s the model.

Too many functional medicine clinics jump straight into fancy protocols and deep healing work before anyone’s even looked at the foundation. That’s where we’re different. Before we talk about your gut or hormones, we look at the basics: are you eating enough, are you sleeping, are you mineralized, and does your body feel safe? It’s not sexy, but it’s what actually moves the needle.

We also take stress and trauma seriously — because your body doesn’t forget. Every single client fills out a stress timeline so we can see the whole picture. And you get unlimited chat access to your practitioner because we actually give a damn about what’s going on in your day-to-day life. 

And yeah, healing can be uncomfortable. It’ll ask you to make changes, to unlearn things you’ve been told about your body for years. That’s why we work with our clients in our Flourish Formula for six months — because real healing takes time.

So if you’ve done functional medicine before and it didn’t “stick,” this episode is for you. Your body isn’t broken — the approach probably just wasn’t complete. Let’s fix that.
