Description: When Your Doctor Misses the Real Problem: A Pharmacist’s Battle With Thyroid, Weight, and FaithIn this eye-opening episode, Dr. Tabatha sits down with Lisa—a pharmacist and Fast to Faith coach—who spent over two decades battling weight gain, brain fog, and fatigue, only to realize her doctors had been missing the bigger picture all along. Despite years on thyroid medication, no one ever tested her for Hashimoto’s… until she took matters into her own hands.Lisa shares how functional medicine uncovered the gut issues, food triggers, and hormone imbalances that conventional medicine ignored—and how faith gave her the strength to heal from the inside out. If you've ever felt dismissed or stuck in your health journey, this conversation will empower you to become your own advocate and start thriving again.If you liked this episode, watch it on youtube! 👉🏻 https://youtu.be/GQdbGlQ_ZmkChapters: 0:00 - The Fear of Telling Your Doctor the Truth 5:05 - 20 Years of Weight Struggles and Misdiagnosis 11:18 - Finally Uncovering Hashimoto’s and Hormone Imbalance 17:18 - Gut Health, Gluten, and the Missing Thyroid Labs 26:30 - Healing Through Faith, Trauma Work, and Self-Worth 43:14 - Helping Other Women Rise Through Fast to Faith✨ If this story resonates, share it with a woman who’s ready to reclaim her health and worth.If you've been on your own healing journey and you keep thinking, I want to help other women do this!
