Wholeness Campaign Podcast

It doesn’t matter how “perfect” your diet is if your nervous system is stuck in stress. In this video, Selena from Wholeness Campaign explains how chronic stress directly hijacks digestion, alters stomach acid, slows motility, damages the gut lining, and even changes the microbiome—undermining gut healing efforts no matter what you eat. Drawing from the GAPS Diet, real physiology, and insights from nutritional anthropology, Selena breaks down why stress is one of the most overlooked root causes of IBS, leaky gut, histamine intolerance, food reactions, and chronic symptoms.

What do you do if you can’t tolerate meat stock? In this video, I answer a common gut-healing question from someone who found that increasing meat stock caused strong, debilitating reactions, and I explain why this experience is actually more common than you think. We talk about what meat stock is doing in the body, why detox reactions can happen when introducing therapeutic foods, and how reacting does not automatically mean you should eliminate it. I share how to find a tolerable amount that supports healing without overwhelming your system, why gradual increases often improve tolerance over time, an...

In this episode of the Wholeness Campaign Podcast we answer the question: how do you act powerfully in your health? Particularly in situations where people are telling you what to do and acting as if they are the boss. The modern medical system has played into this idea that there is a hero and a victim. We shatter that paradigm in this podcast and open up about a recent situation where Eric stood up to a doctor and had a voice. We talk all about respect in this situation and what it looks like to honor yourself and honor...

In this episode of the Wholeness Campaign Podcast we compare and contrast the ideas of empathy and sympathy. When people are healing from chronic illness, it is really common for people to step into the role of pitying someone or unintentionally looking down on them. Have you ever thought, “I’m glad I’m not in their shoes”?? That is the essence of sympathy. Whereas empathy is intentionally putting yourself in the other person’s shoes to feel what they are feel WHILE at the same time believing in them and having hope that they can come out. In this episo...

In this episode of the Wholeness Campaign Podcast we talk about NARCISSISM. There are many limiting belief systems and habits that impact our healing and narcissistic tendencies are huge! After a deeply impactful counseling session, we share our experience with our own covert narcissism as well as how it has played out in our relationships. Many people think of overt narcissism when they think of narcissism but there is a COVERT type of narcissism that is just as disturbing and much harder to spot. Join us as we discuss the implications for health and wholeness!

In this episode of the Wholeness Campaign Podcast we discuss poverty mentality or as some like to call it “scarcity mindset.” This is something that we have struggled with a lot in the past and we have been working very diligently to walk out of. I have seen poverty mentality be very prevalent in the health space. People often feel like there isn’t enough money out there to take care of themselves. We give insight into what causes this for some people as well as how we went about pursing a recent opportunity in the area of finances.

In this episode of the Wholeness Campaign Podcast we talk all about miraculous healing. Miracles are happening all over the world. God is still a healer. As much as I believe in taking ownership over you healing process, I also believe that you are not alone and if you are willing to let God in, He wants to help you! The miracles we read about in the Bible are still happening today. Sometimes it requires us to have enough faith to just ask.

Your body was made to heal if given the right things. Hopefully...

In this episode of the Wholeness Campaign Podcast we share our brutally honest opinion on sleep training, particularly the cry it out method and its proven effects on the nervous system. We are all about emotional regulation here and building a secure attachment from a young age. This is a very controversial topic on the internet right now but I believe it impacts our ability to heal more than we know. Living in a chronic state of stress as babies sets up our nervous system to feel the most comfortable in a state of fight, flight, or freeze and...

In this episode we share some of our early dating and marriage as it relates to healing. We chose into marriage knowing some of what was to come but not all of what was to come. Through hospital visits for Post-Concussive Syndrome, starting GAPS ONE MONTH into marriage, and continuing to choose health over conventional lifestyles, our relationship has been challenged on many fronts. We dive deep into the mental - emotional process of marriage while healing from chronic symptoms and finding healing on the other side. Follow along as we share encouraging testimonies that inspire hope for your...

Is our intrinsic design sufficient for healing? Enjoy the episode.

In this episode, we share about the mental hurdles we encounter when healing (or really pursuing anything in life!). What happens when you hit a wall? When things don't work the way you thought they would? What happens when you need to push past walls to get to the thing you have been wanting? I see this often in the area of alternative medicine and holistic health, people pursuing something and when it "doesn't work" or you hit a wall, they jump ship into something else. We talk through what it means to persevere in the face of adversity...

Detox is often the missing key to a healing journey. It is one thing to nourish your body but another thing to really focus on getting the "crap" or toxins out! In this video we share our favorite ways to detox. There is one in particular that always helps me and we go into our own journey with detox and the improvements we saw in our health when we started.

Follow along as we share encouraging testimonies that inspire hope for your healing process and talk about the messy parts of the wholeness journey that...

The beginning of a healing journey looks different for everybody. The question for me was, how much was I willing to endure before I was willing to change? It took a lot of weeding through denial and slowing down my pace enough to see what was actually going on in my heart and body. There were some key life events along with some super influential people that really sent me down the path of growth. The key 🔑 I believe was DESPERATION. I hope you enjoy my retelling of my nutritional onboarding journey towards health and wholeness.

Welcome to the Wholeness Campaign!

In this episode we share the beginning of Eric's healing story from Hashimoto's. We are sharing about the power of slowing down when you are on a physical healing process. Slow living has become a buzz word in our culture but very few really know what it means. Often having children, getting sick, or needing recovery can act as prompts for us to slow down and engage the healing process more authentically. The fast-paced, busy life is not conducive to real healing.
