You’re Not Crazy — Something Is Making Us All Sick. Here’s What It Is | Dr. Austin Lake

About this episode

Functional medicine practitioner Dr. Austin Lake joins Rebecca to unpack why chronic illness is exploding in our culture — and how a combination of ultra-processed foods, environmental toxins, disrupted circadian rhythms, and spiritual disconnection are quietly destroying our health. They dive deep into belief systems, the role of hope in healing, and how modern medicine has (by design) strayed from foundational principles by masking symptoms instead of addressing root causes. Dr. Austin also tackles hormonal chaos in women, inflammation, fertility issues, EMFs, birth control, and why even tampons and toilet paper can contribute to hormone disruption — while offering practical, actionable solutions for detoxing safely, supporting your gut, and restoring your health. This episode is packed with surprising insights and the kind of honest, faith-based holistic conversation you won’t hear in mainstream health circles.
