In this powerful episode of Holistic Health with Melissa, I sit down with Krissy Ford, a board-certified physician assistant with nearly 20 years of clinical practice. Following her own health struggles, including cervical cancer, IBS, and adrenal fatigue, Krissy made a courageous pivot from conventional medicine to functional health consulting.

In this powerful episode of Holistic Health with Melissa, we sit down with Jamie Javed, a former critical care nurse turned holistic and metabolic health coach. Jamie shares her transformative journey from the trauma-filled halls of the ER to her mission of helping women reconnect with their bodies, reclaim their energy, and master their metabolism. Through raw storytelling, Jamie opens up about the pivotal moments that sparked her passion for holistic health, including a life-altering experience with a fallen firefighter that forever shaped her purpose.

We dive deep into the mind-body connection, understanding how beliefs impact physical health, and why many women feel disconnected from their bodies—constantly reaching for quick fixes while believing they are broken. Jamie offers practical, empowering strategies to shift these limiting beliefs, find your "why," and begin a journey of lasting transformation. If you’ve ever felt stuck in your health journey or disconnected from your body, this episode is your guide back to wholeness.
