Ever wonder why you feel anxious, unmotivated, or “wired but tired” — even when you’re trying to do all the right things?

In this episode, I’m breaking down how amino acids are the building blocks of your neurotransmitters — the brain chemicals that influence your mood, focus, energy, and sense of calm. We’ll cover how supplements like 5-HTP, GABA, and L-Tyrosine can help refill your “empty buckets,” why gut health plays such a huge role in mental health, and how diet and lifestyle changes provide longer-lasting support than medications alone.

You’ll learn:

✨ Why amino acids are precursors to serotonin, dopamine, and GABA

✨ What happens when your neurotransmitter “buckets” run low

✨ How modern life (hello, social media dopamine hits!) is draining your brain chemistry

✨ The powerful role of the gut-brain connection in mood and energy

✨ Why food is the most underrated mood booster — and what to eat for steady energy & calm

Takeaway: You can’t heal your brain on an empty tank. Supplements can help in the short-term, but the real game-changers are food, gut health, and sustainable lifestyle shifts
