If you've ever been told your lab results are normal, your symptoms are in your head, or there's nothing they can do, but you know in your gut something's wrong and you're not prepared to settle, you have to meet my guest in this episode, Andi Clark.
After struggling for 20 years with a myriad of symptoms, it was when she started doing fitness competitions that her body started shutting down. As a personal trainer, she was fit and yet she could no longer work out without it completely draining her. Over the years, she experienced fatigue, brain fog, muscle aches, skin issues, gut issues, and more. Yet her doctor did test after test (Andi fought hard to get some of those tests), and they came back normal.
Andi decided to take matters into her own hands and started researching and pushing for answers. Andi and I met about 5 years ago when she was working through what she called adrenal fatigue at the time. She joined my program, and we worked through my signature process to lower toxins in her home. Since then, she's figured out more about her body and how to support the symptoms she was experiencing.
She uncovered the missing piece to the puzzle as to why exercise and nutrition alone were not enough to stop her from experiencing two huge burnout crashes in her life. Because of this, she made the tough decision to sell her business and switch from a 25 year career as a successful Personal Trainer, Nutrition & Mindset coach to high-level executives and athletes into reversing and preventing burnout in First Responders. Word spread fast with the results they were getting and First Responders started asking for help all over North America, UK and Australia as well as hiring Andi to speak nationally for services. Then Covid hit, and other entrepreneurs started asking for help with sleep, focus, energy and other burnout symptoms.
Andi has now expanded her services of Burnout Prevention and Performance Optimization to include Elite Entrepreneurs.
In this episode, we talk about:
- Navigating the medical system when you know something's wrong, but your tests come back "normal"
- How the stress system works and what happens when it's off balance
- The role toxins played in her symptoms and recovery
- Advice if you're experiencing symptoms and/or struggling to get support from your doctor
