What REALLY Causes Bloating? (Hint: It’s Not Just Food!)

Entrepreneurship, Intuitive Eating, Podcast

Is your gut health holding you back? In today’s episode, I chat with certified holistic health coach and gut health specialist Hannah Aylward about the real root causes of bloating, IBS, and chronic digestive struggles. Hannah shares her personal journey of overcoming restrictive dieting and uncovering deeper gut imbalances—like mold exposure, stress, and dysbiosis—that were keeping her stuck. We dive into why food elimination alone isn’t the answer and how you can heal your gut without fear and restriction. Whether you’re struggling with gut issues yourself or looking to grow a functional health practice, this episode is packed with insights you won’t want to miss!

Tune in to hear:

  • Why a healthy gut should be able to tolerate most foods (and how to get there)
  • The key nutrients and foods that support gut healing—beyond just probiotics
  • How stress and nervous system dysregulation impact digestion (and what to do about it)
  • The biggest mistakes people make when trying to heal their gut
  • Hannah’s advice for building a thriving functional health business
